Overview

  • Commissioner Roger Goodell confirmed the approval after the league's fall meetings in New York.
  • The purchase is a minority, non-controlling interest, and the Giants’ leadership stays in place with John Mara as president and CEO and Steve Tisch as executive vice president and chairman.
  • Reports place the franchise valuation around $10–$10.3 billion, with the 10% stake priced at more than $1 billion.
  • Julia Koch, one of the world’s wealthiest women and the widow of David Koch, previously bought 15% of BSE Global, owner of the Brooklyn Nets and New York Liberty.
  • Owners also approved minority-stake sales for the Patriots and 49ers, according to a person familiar with the votes who said those approvals were not announced.
