{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Sportsbooks will be allowed inside NFL stadiums beginning this year after an owners' vote.

Revenue from the sportsbooks will not be shared with other teams unless the stadium brings in at least $20 million in bets, The Athletic says – the money will then be pooled with all the other teams. The NFL believes that the revenue should be shared because fans don't always bet on their own favorite teams.
