Broncos ownership dispute: NFL commissioner Roger Goodell says he may get involved

ATLANTA — The dispute between one of Broncos owner Pat Bowlen’s brothers and the three-person trust that has run the franchise since 2014 took another turn Wednesday during NFL commissioner Roger Goodell’s annual Super Bowl Week press conference.

Goodell said it is possible he could get involved in the situation, which began in October when Bill Bowlen filed a lawsuit in Arapahoe County District Court demanding Broncos president and CEO Joe Ellis, team counsel Rich Slivka and local attorney Mary Kelly be removed from power.

“As you know, this is an ongoing dispute,” Goodell said in response to a question by The Denver Post.
