rest - https://www.usatoday.com/story/sport...er/7616249001/ENGLEWOOD, Colo. – Russell Wilson was in the midst of dinner at a trendy Platt Park sushi restaurant with his wife, Ciara, when his phone rang.
It was Walmart chairman Greg Penner, likely among the few people who could prompt the Denver Broncos quarterback to take a call during date night.
“Oh, this is interesting,” Wilson said he thought. “This must be good news.”
Penner was calling to tell Wilson he, his wife, Carrie Walton Penner, and his father-in-law, Rob Walton, had won the bidding war to become the Broncos’ new ownership group. So, good news in the sense that Wilson and the rest of the franchise now know – pending approval from the league’s ownership group, which should happen well before the regular season begins – who their new bosses are.
