From Super Bowl to Startups: Logan Ryan’s Game Plan for Wealth

In the latest episode of Portfolio Players, presented by E*TRADE from Morgan Stanley, Front Office Sports Editor-in-Chief Dan Roberts sits down with two-time Super Bowl champion and CBS NFL anaylst Logan Ryan to discuss how he’s translating success on the field into smart moves off it.

Ryan dives into the business of sports—from the explosion of media rights money in the NFL to the mindset shift athletes need to make when stepping into ownership and investing. He shares insights on nearly buying a French soccer club, weighing the appeal of global football opportunities, and the risks that come with them.

The conversation also touches on the rise of NIL, with Ryan advocating for player empowerment and fair compensation in college sports. On the tech front, he details his bullish stance on AI, including early investments in OpenAI, and how he sees it shaping the future of both sports and business.

Portfolio Players, which releases on Tuesdays every other week, uncovers the strategies behind the deals, decisions, and dollar signs that define sports business. Whether it’s legendary athletes or powerhouse executives, we break down the sponsorships, private equity plays, and entrepreneurial ventures shaping the industry. Check out our latest episode now live on YouTube and across Front Office Sports properties.
