Boston Celtics new ownership group includes Dolphins vice chairman

AI-assisted summary Beal was fined $500,000 and banned from league meetings for his role in the tampering scandal.

Bruce Beal, one-time owner-to-be of the Miami Dolphins before those plans changed, has his stake in a sports franchise.

Beal has a minority interest in the record $6.1 billion sale of the Boston Celtics to a group led by private equity executive Bill Chisholm.

Beal is a longtime real estate partner of Dolphins owner Stephen Ross and current vice chairman of the Dolphins along with Tom Garfinkel, who is also listed as team president and CEO.

At one point, Beal was in line to succeed Ross as owner of the Dolphins, but those plans have since changed.

Ross intends to eventually hand control of the organization to his daughters, Jennifer and Kimberly.

What went wrong with Bruce Beal's succession plan with Miami Dolphins ? In 2022, the NFL found the Dolphins guilty of tampering with quarterback Tom Brady and coach Sean Payton, who were under contract elsewhere.

Ross was fined $1.5 million and the Dolphins were docked a first-round draft pick for violations that Commissioner Roger Goodell characterized as unprecedented .

Beal did not have a small role in the infractions.

The NFL found that Beal acted deliberately to have impermissible communications with Brady as early as August 2019, when Brady still quarterbacked the New England Patriots .

Beal may have thought his friendship with Brady blurred their relationship enough to justify the contact.

The league did not.

These numerous and detailed discussions were conducted by Mr.

Beal, who in turn kept Mr.

Ross and other Dolphins executives informed of his discussions with Mr.

Brady, the NFL ruled.

The communications continued during and after the 2021 season, the NFL said, after Brady joined the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

The league said they focused on Brady becoming a limited partner in the Dolphins, possibly serving as a football executive and at times involved the idea of playing in Miami.

Ross and Beal were active participants in these discussions, the league said in banning Beal from league meetings this season and fining him $500,000.
