Name on many a sports jersey

Ross

I believe the answer is:

sponsor

(Other definitions for sponsor that I've seen before include "Patron or backer" , "Provide funds for a project or person" , "One funding an event" , "One offering support" , "One financially supporting event" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
