The Colorado-based news and spotlight Facebook page, I'm From Denver, posted a pair of photos of Lucas with his wife, Mellody Hobson, following the Broncos' 3-point, overtime victory against the Buffalo Bills on Saturday (January 17th, 2026).

For those that don't know, Hobson is a minority owner of the Denver Broncos, making history as the first Black woman with an equity stake in an NFL team, joining the Walton-Penner Family Ownership Group that purchased the team back in 2022. She is now in her fourth year as an owner.
