Stan Kroenke is on quite the winning streak across a wide range of professional sports of late.
His triumphant return of the Rams to Los Angeles was capped off by the team’s historic win in Super Bowl LVI on their home turf in SoFi Stadium. Kroenke took a massive risk by hiring the youngest head coach in NFL history after more than a decade of losing, and Sean McVay transformed the franchise and led them to two championship appearances in his first five seasons. The billionaire’s deep pockets allowed the Rams to prioritize cash spending over the salary cap—including dumping QB Jared Goff’s recent contract extension to trade for Matthew Stafford—and go all in to bring the 2021 Lombardi Trophy back to Los Angeles.
