Led by Denver Broncos wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders, the team has donated about $70,000 for relief efforts to those impacted by Hurricane Harvey’s damaging storm. The Denver Broncos helped out as well.

The team itself decided that it will match dollar for dollar all the money that was raised by the players of the team.
