The Broncos will honor the 25th anniversary of the franchise’s first Super Bowl title-winning team during the Oct. 23 home game against the New York Jets.
“The 25th anniversary of the Broncos’ first Super Bowl championship is a special occasion deserving of a tribute that celebrates how much the 1997 team means to our organization and fans,” president/CEO Joe Ellis said in a statement. “During an unforgettable season, that iconic team overcame tremendous adversity to deliver a long-awaited World Championship to our fans as double-digit underdogs in Super Bowl XXXII.”
The Broncos will not induct a new member into the team’s Ring of Fame this year for only the third time since 2012.
