Kim Pegula, the co-owner of the Buffalo Bills and Sabres, is receiving medical care following “some unexpected health issues,” the Pegula family said in a statement Tuesday morning.

“We are very grateful for the progress that she has made over the past few days,” the statement read. “She has an exceptional team of medical experts at her side.

“We ask that you keep Kim and our family in your prayers and ask that you respect our need for privacy.”

Pegula, 53, serves as the president and CEO of Pegula Sports and Entertainment, running business operations for both Buffalo franchises.

The Pegulas — Kim and her husband, Terry — purchased the Sabres in 2011 and later bought the Bills in 2014.
