    The Dallas Cowboys have overtaken the New York Yankees as America's most valuable sports franchise. Forbes released its annual valuation list of NFL franchises, and the Cowboys check in with a worth of $1.85 billion, $150 million more than the Yankees. Globally, only English soccer club Manchester United ($1.9 billion) surpasses Dallas, which generated an NFL-high $406 million in revenue last year. The average value of an NFL club now stands at $1.036 billion. Rounding out the NFL's top five on Forbes' list were the Redskins ($1.56B), Patriots ($1.4B), Giants ($1.3B) and Jets ($1.22B). The bottom five were the Jaguars ($725 million), Raiders ($761M), Rams ($775M), Bills ($792M) and Vikings ($796M).
