In Elway’s six seasons as a member of the Broncos front office, the team has a regular-season winning percentage of 69.8 percent, two AFC Championships and one Super Bowl victory. Broncos both past and present took to social media to share their contentment with Elway and what he has done for the franchise.

Both as a player and general manager, Elway’s impact on the Broncos franchise has been paramount. Around the NFL writer Chris Wesseling summed up Elway’s unmatched importance to the franchise throughout the years.
