Robert Kraft Featured on Cover of Sports Illustrated (Photo)

In what has been an eventful NFL season, New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft has certainly managed to leave his mark — so much so that he is being featured in the upcoming edition of Sports Illustrated.

Back in July, Kraft was credited by the Colts' Jeff Saturday for his vital contributions to ending the four-and-a-half month NFL lockout. His Patriots then went on to a 13-3 season and the top seed in the AFC en route to making their fifth Super Bowl appearance in 11 seasons.

For his efforts, Kraft will appear on the cover of SI's next magazine, titled "Kraftwork," which is scheduled to be released on Feb. 5. Get a sneak peak of it below.
