10 NFL Teams Diddy Should Consider Owning

Is gridiron greatness next up for the music mogul?

10 NFL Team Diddy Should Consider Owning - Diddy wants a stake in a football team. But not the way celebs typically do it by buying into a small percentage and then donning the jersey as proof. He doesn't even want to do it the way Jay Z did, rebranding a team and then flipping his share to build a sports agency. No, Diddy wants majority ownership; as a Black man, he's personally invested in the dream. "I think it's time for that. A majority of players that are in the NFL are African-American, but there are no African-American owners," he said. He promises to be the first, and we'd like to do our part to get him in the zone.

New York Jets - Bo might know a lot of sports, but no one knows that jet-life like Diddy. And that he's from New York, ownership of the Jets would be a like a sonnet come alive — you know, poetic. Plus, he can teach the team the Diddy jet dance for the end zone celebrations.(Photo: iamdiddy via Instagram)

Chicago Bears - The "C" on the Bears' uniform stands for "Ciroc," OK? The co-branding would flow effortlessly between the NFL team and Diddy's elite street team, the Ciroc Boyz.(Photo: Taylor Hill/Getty Images)

Washington Redskins - With the ongoing debate about whether or not the team's name is racist and offensive, Diddy would be the ultimate consultant: If a shift in moniker is needed, there's not a name changer more experienced and masterful than Sean "Puffy-Puff-P.

Oakland Raiders - Since the passing of their legendary owner Al Davis in 2011 (RIP), Raider Nation could really use a pick-me-up — Diddy-style.

Jacksonville Jaguars - There's a lot of football history in the most populous city in Florida, home of the Gator Bowl. Granted, the Jaguars haven't been as memorable, but if Diddy becomes the first Black majority owner, it could spark a whole new wave of history-making excitement for the town ... and the team. (Photo: Rick Diamond/Getty Images for BET)

Detroit Lions - Diddy is already part of a multimillion dollar Nike ad campaign featuring the Lions' star WR Calvin Johnson, so why not let Johnson (Diddy's character in the ads) run the whole operation?(Photos from left: Leon Halip/Getty Images, Michael Stewart/Getty Images)

Arizona Cardinals - Diddy said that he'd "love" to be a majority owner in L.A., where fans are already thirsty for a pro league team (there's hasn't been one in the city since the Raiders dipped in 1995). He should do that, and take the Cards, a team long overdue for a change. Since they've moving from their start in Chicago in the 1920s to St. Louis in the '60s, to their home now in Arizona, they've become the first team in the NFL to lose 700 games. So, L.A. for the win!(Photo: Michael Buckner/Getty Images)
