Dallas Cowboys owner and general manager Jerry Jones has been an integral part of the franchise for nearly 33 years. It has been one of the crowning jewels among his prized possessions while turning out to be the greatest business decision of his career. But fans wonder how much the Cowboys might sell for if Jones considers selling, and who will be the frontrunners.

Having bought the team for $150 million in 1989, Jones has overseen an appreciation in their value. Cowboys have become the most valuable sports franchise in the world. Despite lacking Super Bowl success in recent years, the Cowboys still have the allure that might attract billionaires to empty their pockets.

An investment in an NFL franchise like the Cowboys is always going to pay off immediately.

Who could put Jerry Jones an offer he can’t refuse?

There remain only a handful of billionaires in the world who can potentially move Jones. Among the least interested candidates will be the founder and Chairman of Adani Groups Gautam Adani, and Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates. While Adani is engaged in multiple businesses, including ports, edible oil, and airports, Gates has been more interested in the sport of Tennis.
