Bills Fans Breathe Easy After Positive Health Update on Co-Owner Kim Pegula
Buffalo Bills fans received uplifting news today as a long-awaited health update on team co-owner Kim Pegula offered a wave of optimism and relief. After a lengthy recovery process stemming from a serious medical issue in 2022, Kim’s family has confirmed that she continues to make significant progress and is in stable condition.
Pegula, who has served as a trailblazing executive in both the NFL and NHL through her leadership with the Bills and the Buffalo Sabres, suffered a cardiac arrest nearly three years ago. The incident led to an extended period of hospitalization and rehabilitation, and while updates have been sparse, today’s announcement marks a clear sign of improvement.
The Pegula Family Statement
In a statement released by the Pegula family, they expressed gratitude for the ongoing support from the community and shared that Kim is “doing well and continuing to recover with the strength, resilience, and determination we’ve always admired in her.” They noted that she has been “engaged with family, aware of team developments,” and has “remained a quiet source of inspiration to those closest to her.”
While Kim is not expected to return to day-to-day operations with the Bills or Sabres anytime soon, the statement made it clear that her recovery has exceeded early expectations and continues in a positive direction.
Community and League Support
The update was met with an outpouring of support from Bills Mafia and fellow owners across the NFL. Terry Pegula, her husband and co-owner of both franchises, has continued managing the family’s sports holdings while also maintaining a focus on Kim’s care.
The Bills organization also released a brief note of encouragement, stating: “We’re thrilled to hear of Kim’s continued improvement. Her leadership, vision, and passion have always guided us, and we look forward to the day she can return in whatever capacity she wishes.”
Looking Ahead
Kim Pegula made history as one of the first female presidents of both an NFL and NHL franchise, earning widespread respect for her work in sports and philanthropy. Her health journey has been followed closely by fans and the broader NFL community alike.
With the 2025 NFL season fast approaching and the Bills aiming for another playoff run, today’s update offers renewed hope—not just for success on the field, but also for the continued healing of one of the organization’s most important figures.
Fans gathered online and outside Highmark Stadium in Orchard Park to express their support, with signs reading “Stay Strong, Kim” and “Our Co-Owner, Our Inspiration.”
For now, Bills fans can take a collective deep breath knowing that Kim Pegula’s health is trending upward—one encouraging step at a time.
