BREAKING: Denver Broncos Honor John Elway with Elevated Role in Franchise History
The Denver Broncos have officially honored franchise legend John Elway by elevating his status within the organization, a powerful tribute to the Hall of Famer’s lasting legacy both on and off the field.
Team executives announced today that Elway’s role in the Broncos’ history will be recognized in a more prominent and permanent way — though specific details are still unfolding, the move is meant to cement his place as one of the most influential figures in the franchise’s story.
Elway, a two-time Super Bowl champion quarterback and former general manager, spent his entire 16-year playing career with the Broncos. He later returned to the front office, helping build the team that won Super Bowl 50. His impact on the organization spans decades, and his leadership has become synonymous with the team’s identity.
“John Elway is the Denver Broncos,” said team CEO Greg Penner. “His commitment, leadership, and contributions are unmatched — and it’s only right that we honor him in a way that reflects his monumental impact on this franchise.”
The team is expected to roll out more tributes in the coming months, possibly including a special ceremony, statue unveiling, or Hall of Honor upgrade at Empower Field.
For Broncos fans, it’s a fitting reminder of the greatness Elway brought to Denver — and the lasting legacy he leaves behind.
