Jozy Altidore, Vince Carter, and Tracy McGrady, a new power trio in Buffalo.
The former Toronto FC striker and the pair of Raptors icons are now officially minority owners of the NFL’s Buffalo Bills.
The Bill [confirmed](https://www.buffalobills.com/news/buffalo-bills-welcome-10-new-limited-partners-to-ownership-group) on Wednesday a flurry of new minority owners, as had been [first reported](https://wakingthered.com/2024/10/15/17781/jozy-altidore-in-talks-with-vince-carter-tracy-mcgrady-to-buy-monitory-stake-in-nfls-buffalo-bills/) two months ago.
“Having played and won an MLS championship in nearby Toronto, I’ve been a huge Bills fan for many years,” Altidore said in a statement. “It’s always been a goal of mine to become part of professional sports ownership, so this opportunity to join the Buffalo Bills family is an incredible honour and dream come true.
“Thank you to … the best fans in the league — Bills Mafia — for welcoming me into the huddle.”
Altidore, Carter, and McGrady are three of 10 new investors. This is the first time in Bills history that minority owners have been brought on board.
The Bills have been a team of choice for Toronto for decades, with many a Southern Ontario season ticket holder or part-time fan making the drive down to Orchard Park. Now, fans of Toronto ball (both soccer and basketball) have yet more reason to nail Bills colours to the mast.
“They all have all achieved high levels of success in their respective industries and we’re grateful for their interest in our team, our sport, and the future of the Buffalo Bills,” said Bills owner and CEO Terry Pegula.
“Most of them have a personal attachment with our team, Western New York or Southern Ontario which was a very important factor to me.”
