NFL approves Tom Gores as minority owner of Los Angeles Chargers

The NFL has approved Tom Gores, owner of the Detroit Pistons, as a minority owner of the Los Angeles Chargers. Gores acquired a significant stake by buying out Dea Spanos Berberian, resolving a family dispute over the team's future. This deal ensures the Chargers remain under the control of Dean Spanos and his siblings, while Gores now holds 27 percent of the franchise, more than any individual Spanos family member. Gores expressed his excitement about joining the Chargers and working with the Spanos family. His substantial ownership stake raises questions about his potential future role within the team.
