Eagles’ Nest wouldn’t be the same without Jeffrey Lurie

Jeffrey Lurie, the billionaire owner of the Philadelphia Eagles. This former professor turned Oscar-winning film producer is not just a savvy businessman; he’s taken the Eagles to the Super Bowl twice in just five years. Lurie’s journey started in 1994 when he borrowed a significant sum to purchase the Eagles for $185 million. Fast forward to today, and the team’s value has soared to $4.9 billion, making Lurie’s wallet a lot heavier with a staggering $4.4 billion.

Lurie’s love affair with football began in 1958 when he witnessed Johnny Unitas and the Baltimore Colts triumph in an unforgettable NFL game against the New York Giants.

Interestingly, Lurie almost became the owner of another NFL team in 1994. He had his sights set on the New England Patriots but withdrew from the bidding war when the price hit $150 million, deeming it too steep. Ultimately, Robert Kraft bought the team for $172 million.

Little did he know that his Philadelphia Eagles investment would turn out to be a game-changer, transforming him into one of the NFL’s wealthiest team owners.
