It was on this day 60 years ago that the the greatest quarterback in Denver Broncos history was born. John Elway would end up getting drafted by the Baltimore Colts, but traded to the Broncos in 1983.
So much greatness followed.
The Broncos would end up winners of 10 or more games in a season nine separate times and make the playoffs in 10 of the seasons led by Elway.
During Elway’s playing career, he had some amazing players around him. As a football player, that is one of the best gifts you can have because while there are individual achievements, the most important achievements are the ones you contribute to as a team.
