The Denver Broncos are not typically strangers to exciting offseason activity.
Just when it seemed like continuity might be the play for the 2021 offseason, the Broncos re-shuffled their front office. John Elway stepped down (up?) from his position as GM and will be the President of Football Operations for a year while George Paton has his rookie season as an NFL general manager.
Elway’s top assistant — Matt Russell — is also retiring from his role and the Broncos will have a brand-new structure in the front office.
