John Elway: Inducted 2004
John Elway was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2004, and few careers in NFL history felt more deserving of that honor. He spent his entire legendary career as a Bronco, leading Denver to five Super Bowl appearances and back-to-back championships to close out his playing days. Elway was the heart and soul of this franchise, and his legacy remains the standard against which every Broncos moment is measured.
