NFL: Here's where every team ranks on TikTok's popularity chart

Forget winning the Super Bowl, can my New York Football Giants crack into becoming one of the Top 10 most popular NFL Teams to follow on TikTok? Yikes. While they do crack into the Top 15, it’s pretty cool to see the entire 32 team line-up on this quirky list.

Here’s the most popular NFL Teams on TikTok

A big salute goes out to the folks over at Sidelines for the roundup and with Patrick Mahomes killing it with his various commercials, it’s a no-brainer the Kansas City Chiefs have some serious star power when it comes to TikTok.

A new study has revealed the most popular NFL teams on TikTok, with the Kansas City Chiefs taking the crown, amassing more than 3 million followers. 

Odds comparison experts Sidelines analyzed the TikTok accounts of all 32 teams in the NFL, to find out which had the most followers, the largest number of likes and the most likes per video on average. 

The Kansas City Chiefs ranked as the most popular NFL team on TikTok, amassing more than 3 million followers. On average they receive an impressive 137,892 likes per video, and at the time of writing, their most recent TikTok features the ‘Elite Ball Placement’ between their Quarterback Patrick Mahomes and their Wide Receiver Justyn Ross. 

The Philadelphia Eagles are the second most followed, with 2.3 million TikTok followers. The Eagles have amassed a staggering 57.1 million likes in total across all of their TikTok videos, which is the highest total number of likes of any NFL team.  

In third are the Dallas Cowboys, having amassed 2 million followers on TikTok. On average they receive 83,193 likes per video and have accrued 25.9 million likes across all of their uploads. 

The Detroit Lions sit in fourth place with 1.92 million followers. The Lions have received more than 37 million likes across 169 uploads, equating to 219,289 likes per video on average. This means that on average, they have the most likes per video of any NFL team. 

Rounding off the top five are the Buffalo Bills, with 1.84 million followers. The Bills have the second highest number of likes per video behind the Detroit Lions, with 175,394 likes per post on average. 

Little separates sixth and seventh place, which belongs to the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Cincinnati Bengals with 1.77 million and 1.76 million followers respectively. 

The eighth most popular team are the Los Angeles Rams with 1.46 million followers and 50,812 likes per video on average.  

Ninth and tenth place are close contenders, with the San Francisco 49ers clocking in 1.29 million followers, while the Baltimore Ravens secure the tenth spot with 1.28 million followers. 

The Houston Texans are the least popular NFL team on TikTok, with 333,770 followers, an almost 2.7 million follower difference from the Chiefs who ranked top. The Texans also have the lowest total number of likes out of any NFL team, at just 2.8 million in total. 

A spokesperson for Sidelines commented:  

“As the 2023 NFL season edges closer, it's interesting to get an insight into how teams stack up against each other in terms of online following and fan engagement. 

“Three-time Super Bowl winners, Kansas City Chiefs, are the current TikTok frontrunners with a near 700,000 follower lead over the Philadelphia Eagles who placed second. 

“Detroit Lions appear to receive the most consistent fan support on TikTok, despite posting few videos to the platform. With the most likes per video on average, they even manage to outrank the likes of more globally recognised teams such as the Dallas Cowboys and the Buffalo Bills in terms of TikTok engagement. 

“With some teams being relatively new to TikTok, it will be fascinating to see whether the rankings change substantially once the new season begins and gameday hype picks back up.”

The NFL season is long gone but it doesn’t mean the teams’ content creators are slowing down. A new Casino Alpha report reveals just what teams have the most TikTok followers with 2023 underway and needless to say? My New York Football Giants need to step it up.

It’s all in the numbers

While the Dallas Cowboys are America’s Team, it’s clear the team has ample work to do to get to the same level as the Super Bowl-winning Kansas City Chiefs.

The most followed NFL teams on TikTok have been revealed in a new study. 

To determine the most-followed teams, casino experts Casino Alpha analyzed TikTok, to find out how many followers each of the official NFL team accounts have and how many likes their videos have received.  

Ranking in first spot after their win on Sunday is the Kansas City Chiefs, the study found they are the most followed NFL team on TikTok, with a total of 2.6 million followers and 45.6 million likes for videos they have posted on their official account. The Chiefs’ top pinned video, which has gained 5.8 million views, is based on asking their players who their favorite team mate is.  

Coming in first for TikTok likes and second in TikTok followers is the Philadelphia Eagles, whose videos have received 48 million likes - 2.4 million more than the Kansas City Chiefs. The Eagles’ most viewed video is of player DeVonta Smith,‘Mic’d Up’, which has gained 7.4 million views.  

The Dallas Cowboys came in joint third place, on 1.9 million followers and 25 million likes across their videos, with their latest video posted on Micah Parsons gaining 1.1 million views and 100,500 likes.  

Joining the Dallas Cowboys in third place are the Detroit Lions who claim to be the ‘CEO of verified replies’ in their TikTok bio with 1.9 million followers and 36.4 million likes across their videos. That makes the Detroit Lions’ videos more liked than the Dallas Cowboys with a 11.4 million TikTok likes difference.  

The Buffalo Bills, Cincinnati Bengals and Pittsburgh Steelers are the fourth and joint fifth most followed NFL accounts, with the Bills coming in fourth place just on top of the Bengals and Steelers. The Bills official team account has 100,000 more followers than the Bengals and Steelers, which each have 1.8 million TikTok followers.  

In sixth place is the Los Angeles Rams which is followed by joint seventh place for San Francisco 49ers, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Baltimore Ravens and New England Patriots. Eighth spot is taken up by the New York Giants and Miami Dolphins. Then five teams come in joint ninth with one million followers - the Chicago Bears, Seattle Seahawks, Indianapolis Colts, Los Angeles Chargers and Tennessee Titans. Finally, claiming number ten on the list is the Carolina Panthers.  

A spokesperson from CasinoAlpha.com  commented on the findings “As the NFL took place on Sunday, it’s interesting to see which NFL teams are the most popular and generating the most interactions with their fans on TikTok. It’s also fascinating to note that the official NFL TikTok account has a huge 10 million followers and 414.1 million likes, which is more followers than the four most followed NFL teams combined. The content and the interactions of all the accounts built up to a great atmosphere and tension for the game and it's interesting to see how the Kansas City Chiefs who won have the most TikTok followers.”
