Rob Walton, the heir of the Walmart franchise, is expected to make a bid for the Broncos for around $4.5–5 billion, per the New York Post.
If he makes this offer, it would become the largest bid for an NFL team in history. He is worth around $70.5 billion, according to Forbes.
Walton, coincidentally, is related to the current Rams owner Stan Kroenke through marriage. Walton’s cousin is Kroenke’s wife, Ann.
Unlike Kroenke, who has ownership stakes in a number of teams, Walton has not previously owned a professional sports franchise.
