The NFL expects to generate $14 billion in 2017, which is a $6 billion increase from 2010.

Roger Goodell said seven years ago that he would like the NFL to reach $25 billion in annual revenue by 2027.

The increase this year came from Thursday Night Football and the opening of U.S. Bank Stadium in Minnesota.

The Atlanta Falcons' new stadium and the Chargers' move to Los Angeles could contribute to further increases.
