ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- History swayed ever so slightly over Justin Simmons' shoulder this month.
Banners, far larger than life, adorned with the images of Denver Broncos' Ring of Fame members as well as the franchise's representatives in the Pro Football Hall of Fame, hang from the walls of the team's fieldhouse. And as the team and Simmons formally celebrated his four-year, $61 million deal -- the biggest ever handed out to a safety -- those banners gently waved back in the internal breeze.
John Elway, Terrell Davis, Floyd Little, Paul Smith, Louis Wright, Randy Gradishar, Shannon Sharpe, are just some of the Broncos greats through the decades.
