The 1998 Super Bowl champion Denver Broncos were a team for the ages. We take a look at what those legendary players are up to today…
Coming off the franchise’s first Super Bowl win, the 1998 Denver Broncos did not miss a beat.
Led by head coach Mike Shanahan, Denver’s team featured three future Hall of Fame inductees and 12 members of Denver’s 50th Anniversary Team. Incredibly, the Denver Broncos’ high-powered offense featured eight of those 12 members.
The offense was so explosive that their points per game average of 31.1 would have ranked number one in 2017.
Their defense was outstanding as well.
Their 19.3 points per game allowed would have ranked eighth in 2017.
Astonishingly, Denver managed to improve in the playoffs where they outscored their three opponents 95-32. This dominance convinced the folks at NFL Films to rank the 1998 Super Bowl team the 12th best Super Bowl Champion of all time in 2007.
Where are those legendary players from that incredible team?
Some went on to be authors, others continued working with the Broncos, and a few have had relatively quiet post-Broncos lives.
Let’s take a look at some of the most notable members of that historically great team starting with the man in charge.
