When a Rob Walton-led ownership group purchased the Denver Broncos last summer, the NFL draft and the bulk of NFL free agency had already passed. The new owners took over in time for the start of the regular season, but they weren’t around for the offseason roster-building process.
Walton is the team’s controlling owner but his son-in-law, Greg Penner, is a co-owner and chief executive officer who oversees day-to-day ownership duties with his wife, Carrie Walton Penner.
