Forbes publishes an annual valuation ranking of all 32 NFL teams, evaluating their financial worth based on factors such as sporting success, market size, stadium agreements, and brand strength. Each category incorporates financial indicators including debt levels and operating income. Since 2007, the Dallas Cowboys have held the title of the NFL's most valuable franchise, and since 2016, they have been recognized as the highest-valued sports franchise worldwide, with an estimated worth of $10.1 billion in 2024.
