From a few weeks ago.
Last season, NFL franchises posted $477 million of revenue, on average, and generated $109 million of operating income per team, trouncing the NBA ($70 million), MLB ($50 million) and the NHL ($25 million).
That helped the league start this season with scant debt relative to team values, despite some $10 billion of credit that it can make available to teams at cheaper rates than they could borrow individually because the debt is backed by the league’s long-term, guaranteed media deals. NFL team owners can stack up to $500 million of debt on their teams and another $150 million of debt on a special purpose entity.
...
And while the pandemic is likely to cut average team revenue by about a third and leave the NFL facing a break-even year, the downturn will be short lived. The NFL will likely soon sign new national media rights deals that will begin in 2023 and are expected to average roughly $15 billion a year, twice the value of its current media agreements.
