Christina Lurie better not have signed a prenup because she could be walking with quite a fortune. Forbes today released its rankings of the most valuable sports franchises and the Eagles come in 14th with a reported value of $1.16 billion.

It’s funny though that the Eagles are worth that when the team parted ways with the guy who built the team to that value in Joe banner. Jeff Lurie now has the team to himself with banner and wife Christina out of the way.

The Eagles rank 14th among the world's most valuable sports franchises, while the Phillies are 48th.

The only other Philly squad to make the list was the Phillies who come in at 48th with an estimated value of $723 million.

Manchester United leads the list worth an estimated $2.23 billion.
