Miami Dolphins owner Stephen Ross said he’s received offers for the National Football League franchise that have approached $15 billion, a sign of how much valuations have surged since he acquired the team for about $1 billion in 2009.

“I don’t think there’s a better asset,” Ross said in an interview on Wednesday with Bloomberg News in Palm Beach, Florida. “Pretty high numbers,” he added, saying he has no plans to sell while questioning where he would invest the proceeds if he did.
