The Denver Broncos have been a shadow of the franchise they once were over the past few years. Struggling with inconsistencies since the retirement of Peyton Manning, the club have been in rebuild mood. 

And if their on-field struggles weren’t enough, the franchise recently got involved in an ownership tussle as well. A lawsuit was filed by sisters Amie Bowlen Klemmer and Beth Bowlen Wallace who are daughters of late Denver Broncos owner Pat Bowlen.

Through the lawsuit, the sisters sued for the removal of trustees selected by their father to run the franchise according to his will. The Broncos trustees have in turn backed another one of Pat Bowlen’s daughters, Brittany Bowlen, to be the next person to lead the franchise. 

But according to recent reports, the lawsuit filed by the sisters has been dismissed. No news of any settlement being made between the two parties has been made public either. 

Following the incident, some changes are expected in the Broncos organization. And with some new faces being floated around to take charge, the name of franchise legend Peyton Manning has also started doing rounds.

“I’ve gone on a year-to-year basis in this second chapter,” Manning said. “I’m going to try to do this, this year. I don’t go past that because you try different things and maybe you like it, maybe you don’t. I will always be a part of the Broncos and Colts organizations in some way.”
