The NFL's recent move to allow private equity firms to acquire up to 10% of its franchises has generated significant interest, with expectations of $12 billion in transactions over the next five years. Despite the small size of the NFL relative to the broader $308 billion private equity market, the league's franchises, averaging $6.5 billion in value, are seen as valuable media assets, driving up investor enthusiasm. With franchise valuations soaring 610% from 2004 to 2022, opportunities for investment are expected to grow, particularly as many owners consider selling portions of their stakes.

Brink's experience highlights the disparity in WNBA salaries compared to endorsement opportunities, as many players rely on sponsorships to supplement their income.
