The acting sisters may not be known for their football skills, but Kate and Rooney Mara have football in their blood, literally. On their father’ side, they are descended from Tim Mara, founder of New York Giants. On their mother’s side, they are related to Art Rooney, who founded the Pittsburg Steelers.
