Rapper Targets Ownership Role in NFL Franchise
Rapper Rick Ross has publicly expressed his desire to acquire a minority ownership stake in the Miami Dolphins, emphasizing that his involvement would go beyond a symbolic investment. In an interview with TMZ Sports, Ross stated he wants to actively work on enhancing the franchise's relationship with its local community.
Ross praised current Dolphins owner Stephen Ross, acknowledging that the businessman has managed the organization effectively. The rapper clarified that his contribution would center on community engagement rather than football operations, noting that he already has an existing relationship with the team but recognizes that earning an ownership stake will require time.
Focus on Fan Connection and Miami Roots
According to Ross, his primary goal would be to help grow the team's connection with fans and the wider Miami community. He views this as an opportunity to leverage his local influence and business acumen to strengthen the Dolphins' brand and outreach efforts.
Beyond his NFL ambitions, Ross shared his optimism about the Miami Heat's future. He expressed support for the potential acquisition of Milwaukee Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo and hopes the Heat can also secure the return of LeBron James during the offseason.
