Even Walmart’s heir Rob Walton individually dwarfs Jones with an estimated net worth of almost $58 billion.

Is the Walton-Penner group deal finalized with the Denver Broncos?

They have technically submitted the winning bid. However, there remain some crucial technical hurdles. The offer will face review from the NFL’s finance committee. It will then proceed to seek approval by voting of all NFL owners.

The condition to be met for the Walton-Penner group will be to get 24 of 32 owners voting in favor of the offer to be finalized.
