Report: John Elway To Become Broncos' Exec Soon
 
http://www.thedenverchannel.com/spor...84/detail.html

DENVER -- Hall of Fame quarterback John Elway is expected to become a lead executive in the Denver Broncos' front office by the end of this season, according to league sources who talked to ESPN Sunday.

"I'd be very surprised if it didn’t happen," a person with direct knowledge of the situation told ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Hours after Broncos' owner Pat Bowlen fired Josh McDaniels last week, he was seen eating dinner with John Elway.

Elway is likely to join the front office in a position with broad personnel powers, working closely with COO Joe Ellis as team owner Pat Bowlen’s two most trusted men, ESPN reported.

Elway already is working as a consultant and adviser to Bowlen.

General manager Brian Xanders would keep his job, but with altered responsibilities, according to Schefter.

Elway will have say in who the Broncos hire as head coach.

7SPORTS has learned the Broncos would be very interested in Gary Kubiak, currently the head coach of the Houston Texans. Kubiak is a former back-up quarterback to Elway and offensive coordinator under Mike Shanahan.

Watch 7SPORTS Sunday for the latest on this story.

Tampering! Strip that draft pick.

Wade Phillips, John Elway, Mike Shanahan and Gary Kubiak may all be unemployed and/or available.

Thank God it's hockey season.

Reportedly Elway, when asked if it were true, said "neigh".

CaliforniaChief 12-13-2010 10:42 AM

Xanders and Zenyatta.

Rain Man 12-13-2010 10:45 AM

I'm delighted to hear this. The league hasn't been the same without Matt Millen, and now we'll have a new one.

Brock 12-13-2010 10:53 AM

This is a guy who lost 15 million dollars in a Ponzi scheme. This is great news.

Frosty 12-13-2010 10:57 AM

I'm thinking that Elway in the FO and Kubiak as the head coach would be a coup - for the rest of the AFC West.

Make it so.
