32 NFL member clubs (team ownership groups collectively) The National Football League is not a standalone corporation but an unincorporated association / trade association made up of 32 separately owned professional football clubs. Each club is a distinct legal entity controlled by its own principal owner or ownership group, and together these clubs constitute 100% of the NFL’s ownership and voting power under the league’s Constitution and Bylaws. In practice, the league is governed collectively by the club owners (e.g., Jerry Jones – Dallas Cowboys; Robert Kraft – New England Patriots; Green Bay Packers, Inc. shareholders – Green Bay Packers), each club effectively holding one seat and one vote in league matters; there are no outside or public shareholders in the NFL itself.
