Who owns Miami Dolphins? How much did Stephen Ross buy the Dolphins for?

Stephen M Ross is the owner of Miami Dolphins.

Ross paid $550 million for a 50% stake in the Miami Dolphins, Dolphin Stadium (now known as Hard Rock Stadium), and surrounding land from then-owner Wayne Huizenga in February 2008, with an agreement to later become the Dolphins’ managing general partner.

Ross completed the purchase of an additional 45 per cent of the team from Huizenga on January 20, 2009. The deal was worth $1.1 billion in total. This means Ross now owns 95 per cent of both the team and the stadium.

Ross stated that he intends to maintain Bill Parcells as director of football operations. Parcells later resigned from his position shortly before the start of the 2010 NFL season.

Since buying the Dolphins, Ross has brought in Gloria Estefan, Marc Anthony, Venus Williams, Tony Chesta and Serena Williams, as minority owners of the team.
