Pat Bowlen and his family purchased the Broncos from Edgar Kaiser in 1984. Bowlen stepped down from his day-to-day duties in 2014 due to his battle with Alzheimer’s disease, and he died in 2017.

Since Bowlen stepped down, the team has been controlled by the Pat Bowlen Trust, led in part by team president/CEO Joe Ellis. The team’s next owner will assume control of the team.
