Broncos ownership dispute could be topic at Roger Goodell’s annual Super Bowl Week news conference

NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell will hold his annual Super Bowl Week news conference Wednesday.

The main Broncos-related topic: Has the NFL yet decided to accept the arbitration request of trustees Joe Ellis, Rich Slivka and Mary Kelly?

In December, the trustees presented to the court the arbitration request with owner Pat Bowlen’s two oldest children (Beth Bowlen Wallace and Amie Bowlen Klemmer) even though they are not named in Bill Bowlen’s lawsuit against the trustees. The trustees assert the dispute is an ownership issue and thus falls under the NFL office’s watch.

It would be news if Goodell confirms the league will lead the arbitration.
