Jay-Z WON’T Become a NFL Team Owner, According to League Sources.
Looks like we had it all wrong and everyone’s up in arms over nothing. According to league insiders, the news about Hov becoming a part-owner of an NFL team is just a rumor.
“Those kinds of deals don’t exist in the NFL,” a source told CBS Sports. “There is no ownership component to this arrangement.”
“That’s not to say that Jay-Z will not at some point get a piece of a team through his work with the league and its owners, but this is nothing like the situation between him and the Brooklyn Nets, where he paid the most nominal of fees to get a portion of the team while he campaigned for their move to that borough and served a particularly public function as the face of the franchise,” CBS Sports further explains. “Carter would have to be fully vetted and approved by membership, and he would have to divest himself of his growing athlete representation empire as well.”
