The Broncos were placed in a trust when Pat Bowlen stepped down in 2014 because of Alzheimer’s.
The trust is overseen by three people, including team president and CEO Joe Ellis, who has final say on day-to-day operations until one of Bowlen’s seven children can succeed him as controlling owner. Tough for their kids to have both parents with Alzheimers
"Most importantly, thank you to all of our incredible fans for the compassion and support you've given to me, Pat and our entire family." – Annabel Bowlen pic.twitter.com/RsHjIEOSLM
