David Tepper’s tenure as owner of the Carolina Panthers has highlighted the challenges that investors-turned NFL owners face. Despite his success as a hedge fund manager, Tepper’s track record as an owner has been less impressive. His firing of coaches and lack of success on the field mirrors the tenure of Dan Snyder with the Washington Commanders. Running a hedge fund requires a different skill set than running an NFL franchise, and Tepper’s Panthers have a winning percentage of just 32.26% under his ownership. However, despite their lack of success, the value of the Panthers has increased. This raises the question of whether financial success necessarily translates into success as an NFL owner. As the trend of owners coming from the financial world continues, it remains to be seen how they will fare in the world of professional sports.
