The Las Vegas Raiders are one of the most iconic franchises in NFL history.
The team was founded in 1960 and has grown to be one of the most popular franchises in American sports despite the recent struggles.
Heading into the 2025 season, the Raiders are expected to be much improved with Pete Carroll taking over as head coach. Additionally, the franchise is becoming more and more valuable.

The eight teams ahead of Las Vegas were the New York Jets, Miami Dolphins, Philadelphia Eagles, San Francisco 49ers, New England Patriots, New York Giants, Los Angeles Rams, and Dallas Cowboys.
The Cowboys topped the list once again with a valuation of $12.8 billion.
