NFL teams’ national revenue increased by 4.9 percent in 2017

Each of the league’s 32 teams took in $255 million in national revenues last year, which translates to $8.16 billion across the league. That’s an increase of 4.9 percent from 2016, according to Darren Rovell of ESPN. National revenue comes from the league’s TV deals with NBC, CBS, FOX, ESPN and DirecTV, as well as licensing and merchandise revenues. That money is split evenly among the 32 teams. Last year was the first time national revenue topped $8 billion. For 2018, national revenue should be up again, as FOX will be paying significantly more for Thursday night games this year than NBC and CBS paid to split the package last year. A sustained decline in the league’s TV ratings could eventually cause the league’s revenues to decline, but that’s highly unlikely to happen before 2022, when the current TV deals expire. Although national revenue represents the bulk of the money that NFL teams make, local revenues are significant as well. The Packers’ books show the team brought in just under $200 million in local revenue.

This is the issue that the NFL needs to fix within the next 4 years. We all know there's a bubble.

The labor strife once the cap stops rising is going to be

They need to start building their own stadiums then.

NFL TV revenue was up 4.9% because the TV contracts are signed years in advance. League TV partners missed revenue projections by over $600 million this year because ratings have declined by nearly 20% the past two years.

The league and players are inoculated from ratings collapses because they are not paid based on yearly results. TV partners bear that risk of loss. Monday Night Football’s renegotiation in a few years will be the first real long term test of health of league’s TV product.

I don't think that the kneeling is even a factor here. Pretty sure these revenues were produced by agreements reached prior to all that.
