Buffalo Bills
Current Leadership
Owner & President
Terry Pegula, a billionaire who made his fortune in natural gas exploration, purchased the Buffalo Bills in October 2014 for $1.4 billion — at the time the highest price ever paid for an NFL franchise. A lifelong Western New York resident, Pegula's purchase ended months of uncertainty about the team's future following the death of founding owner Ralph Wilson Jr. Pegula also owns the Buffalo Sabres (NHL) and has invested heavily in the revitalization of downtown Buffalo, including the development of a new stadium for the Bills.
Co-Owner
Kim Pegula serves as co-owner of the Buffalo Bills alongside her husband Terry. She played an active role in the team's business operations and served as president of Pegula Sports and Entertainment, overseeing both the Bills and the Sabres. Kim has been a visible presence in the organization and community, though health challenges in recent years have limited her day-to-day involvement.

Historical Figures
Founder & Owner
Ralph C. Wilson Jr. founded the Buffalo Bills in 1960 as a charter member of the American Football League, putting up $25,000 for the franchise fee. A Detroit insurance and automotive parts magnate, Wilson chose Buffalo because he believed small, blue-collar cities made the best football towns. He owned the Bills for 54 years — through two AFL championships, four Super Bowl appearances, and a 17-year playoff drought — and his unwavering commitment to keeping the team in Buffalo made him a beloved figure in Western New York. Wilson passed away on March 25, 2014, at age 95. He was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2009.
