The Patriots have not only had their players on their TikTok videos but also their Cheerleading team go viral, such as the video of the Cheerleaders attempts kicking a field goal which has gained 5.4 million views.
Coming in second place is the Pittsburgh Steelers who have an incredible 8.8 million followers with Twitter being the most popular platform with 3.7 million followers. The Steelers describe themselves as the World Champions: IX, X, XIII, XIV, XL, XLIII and have recently updated their fans with tweets such as signing LB Jamir Jones to a one-year contract.
