DENVER (AP) — Hall of Famer John Elway is confirming his interest in working for the Denver Broncos again.
Elway said Friday on his weekly radio show on Denver’s 87.7 The Ticket that he has spoken with team owner Pat Bowlen and chief operating officer Joe Ellis about joining the front office in an official capacity but those discussions haven’t gone far.
Elway, who has served as a business consultant this season to the team he led to back-to-back Super Bowl titles in the 1990s, has no interest in coaching or serving as a general manager in the NFL.
But he says he might find a role as the team’s top football executive appealing.
Bowlen and Elway dined at his Cherry Creek restaurant Monday night just hours after Josh McDaniels was fired as coach of the Broncos.
