Broncos coMMunity award winners

WALTER PAYTON NFL MAN OF THE YEAR

Safety Justin Simmons was the Denver Broncos 2020 Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year nomi-

nee. The prestigious award, presented by Nationwide, recognizes a player for his outstanding leadership both on the field and in the community.

Selected by the Broncos in the third round (98th overall) of the 2016 NFL Draft from Boston College, Simmons has consistently demonstrated a commitment to using his platform to impact the community during his five seasons as a Bronco.

Despite the in-person challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic, Simmons’ commitment to his com-

munities has not wavered as he focused his outreach on COVID relief and social justice initiatives while also launching the Justin Simmons Foundation.

A two-time winner of the team’s Community Ambassador Award (2017-18), Simmons has worked tirelessly to make a difference in five distinct focus areas: Youth Development, Social Justice, Health & Wellness, Youth Football and Civic Engagement.

In addition to his community involvement, Simmons has developed into one of the league’s top safeties and ironmen. He was named to his first-career Pro Bowl in 2021, and currently boasts the NFL’s longest streak of consecutive snaps played by a defensive player (2,024 consecutive snaps).

Simmons also conducts himself professionally with the media and was presented with the Darrent Williams Good Guy Award by the local Denver media following the 2017, ’19 and ’20 season. He is the only the three-time winner of the award, which is named in honor of the late cornerback who was tragically killed in a shooting and annually presented to the Bronco who best exemplifies Williams’ enthusiasm, cooperation and honesty while dealing with members of the press.

2020 “CHAMPIONS IN THE COMMUNITY” AWARD WINNERS

Below are the Broncos’ nominees for the Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year award since 2002. Quarterback John Elway received the national honor from the NFL in 1992, given to the individual who provides leadership for his teammates on the gridiron and his fellow citizens in the community.

Broncos annual award winners

Darrent Williams Good Guy Award

Denver Broncos safety Justin Simmons was presented with the 14th Annual Darrent Williams Good Guy Award in 2020, as selected by the team’s local media.

The award was created in memory of former Broncos cornerback Darrent Williams, who passed away on Jan. 1, 2007, after completing his season with the team. The honor is bestowed annually to the Bronco who best exemplifies Williams’ enthusiasm, cooperation and honesty while dealing with members of the press.

According to ESPN senior writer Jeff Legwold, “In what was, again, one of the widest voting margins we have had over the last 14 years, Justin has broken new ground given not only is he the first back-to-back winner since the first time we pre-sented the award in 2007, Justin is

also now the first three-time winner.”Other players who received significant consid-

eration for the honor included guard Dalton Risner and safety Kareem Jackson.

ED BLOCK COURAGE AWARD

The Denver Broncos selected outside linebacker Bradley Chubb as their 2020 Ed Block Courage Award winner.

Each year, the Ed Block Courage Award honors players who exemplify commitments to the prin-ciples of sportsmanship and courage. Chubb was selected by his teammates for his approach and dedication to the rehab process after suffering a season-ending knee injury on Sept. 29, 2019. He was one of two players throughout the COVID-19 pandemic to spend the entire offseason rehabbing his injury, showing professionalism and toughness by playing at a Pro Bowl level in 2020.

Selected by Denver fifth overall from N.C. State University in the 2018 NFL Draft, Chubb has recorded 42 tackles (26 solo), 7.5 sacks (50 yds.), 19 quarterbacks hits, nine tackles for loss and one forced fumble in 14 games played during the 2020 season.

Chubb, who was named a starter for his first Pro Bowl in 2020, was the only NFL player selected who participated in four or fewer games a season ago.

The Ed Block Courage Award is named in honor of Ed Block, the longtime head athletic trainer of the Baltimore Colts, who was a pioneer in his profession

and a respected humanitarian. Recipients are select-ed by their teammates for exceptional courage, great character and inspiring effort.

the denver Broncos cheerleaders

Members of the Denver Broncos cheerleading squad divide thousands of hours annually among dozens

of Colorado organizations. Many associations, including Global Down Syndrome Foundation, Denver Broncos Boys and Girls Club, Craig Hospital, Children’s Hospital, Habitat for Humanity, Denver Rescue Mission and the Alzheimer’s Association, have been supported and visited by members of the squad in recent years.

For the 2021 season, the squad will continue to pro-mote community involvement as its primary commitment, including the 15th Annual Cheer for the Troops Campaign, shipping thousands of pounds of food, hygiene and gift items all over the world to military serving our country.

Since 2003, members of the Denver Broncos cheerleaders have toured military bases all over the world. In 2020, 12 team members had the honor of touring for two weeks throughout Italy at American bases serving all four branches of the military.

The Broncos Cheerleaders continue to support military initiatives at home and abroad. The Broncos Cheerleaders continue to support military initiatives at home and abroad.

This past season, the cheerleaders revealed a new book available to fans in the fall. Replacing the traditional cheerleader calendar, the book will give fans a glimpse into the lives of their favorite cheer-leaders from hobbies, interests, fitness, dance and the Colorado lifestyle.

Entering their 29th season, the Denver Broncos cheerleaders are one of the premier teams in the National Football League. The Broncos brought cheerleaders back in 1993 after a 17-year absence and are proud of the work the team does both on the field and, more importantly, in the community.

The Broncos’ cheerleaders are selected through auditions held each spring. In 2021, more than 200 women tried out for the 26 available positions through a virtual process and a final in-person process. Auditions are typically a week long and include evaluation in dance technique, choreography, business interview and football knowledge. The week historically culminates in a live Final Audition Show, open to the public, where the team is announced.

Known for their distinctive western uniforms, the cheerleaders wear long leather chaps and jackets in the fall months, ski-wear for cold games and a more traditional cheerleading leather skirt and vest in the summer months. The three uniform changes give the group flexibility with the rapidly changing Colorado weather. In 2021, the cheerleaders will have a book, poster and other merchandise available for sale. For more information on the cheerleaders, including audition information and individual bios, visit www.DenverBroncos.com/cheerleaders.

eMPower Field at Mile high

The Denver Broncos began a new era in 2001 when they took to the field in their new venue, Empower Field at Mile High. Built adjacent to their previous home of 41 years, Mile High Stadium, the new

stadium features first-class, state-of-the art amenities for the teams and fans alike.With seating capacity set at 76,125, Empower Field at Mile High is one of the largest stadiums in the

National Football League. It includes 1.7 million square feet of space (approximately twice that of Mile High Stadium), providing the ultimate in comfort and convenience—including wider concourses, wider seats, more restrooms, elevators and escalators and full-service accommodations for people with disabilities.

Empower Field at Mile High features 132 luxury suites on two levels as well as 8,800 club seats. It is highlighted by an emphasis on state-of-the-art technology while maintaining the traditional aspects of Mile High Stadium that gave the Broncos a decided home-field advantage over the years. Those features include the close proximity of the seats to the field as well as steel treads and risers that fans utilize to create the same deafening roar that characterized Mile High Stadium.

A $30 million investment in Empower Field at Mile High during the 2013 offseason increased the size of its scoreboard by three times while enhancing all stadium audio/visual elements, suites and concourses.

The stadium was designed and built by Turner/Empire/Alvarado Construction and HNTB Architects in association with Fentress Bradburn Architects and Bertram A. Bruton Architects. Numerous Colorado companies and hundreds of professional designers, engineers and construction tradesmen were involved in the construction of the new state-of-the-art facility.

Construction began during the summer of 1999, and official groundbreaking on the stadium was held on Aug. 17, 1999. The Broncos won the first game ever played in the new stadium, 31-24, over New Orleans on Aug. 25, 2001, in the preseason and won the first regular-season game, 31-20, at the facility on Monday Night Football against the New York Giants on Sept. 10, 2001.

Broncos stadiuM history

The Denver Broncos played nearly all of their home games for the first 41 seasons of club history in one building. Known since 1969 as Mile High Stadium, the facility opened in 1948 as Bears Stadium

for the Denver Bears of baseball’s old Western League with long range plans to utilize it for football as well. When Denver became a charter member of the American Football League in 1959, the south stands (8,100 seats) and portable east stands (9,616 seats) were added to give a capacity of 34,657 for football. The Broncos began play in 1960.

After Denver voters turned down a stadium bond issue to build an all-purpose metropolitan stadium in 1967, a non-profit group began a fundraising drive with the goal of purchasing the stadium for the city. In February 1968, the group bought the stadium from Rocky Mountain Empire Sports for $1.8 million and presented it to the city of Denver. A 16,000-seat upper deck was immediately constructed over the west stands, raising the capacity to more than 50,000 for the 1968 season. In December 1968, the stadium was renamed Denver Mile High Stadium.

The Broncos posted a home record of 191-109-7 (.634) in 41 seasons of play from 1960-2000. With the exception of two games played at the University of Denver Stadium (1962 and ‘63 home openers; 1-1 record), every Broncos home game was played in the single facility known either as Bears Stadium or Mile High Stadium with the club posting a 190-108-7 (.638) record in the building. The Broncos went 19-40-2 (.328) from 1960-68 in Bears Stadium before posting a 171-68-5 (.711) record from 1969-2000 after the name was changed to Mile High Stadium.

The stadium was filled for every regular-season game from the beginning of the 1970 season through its final season in 2000. The Broncos sold out 237 consecutive regular-season games, and with postseason contests the total reached 250 over the 31-year period.

Expansion of Mile High Stadium, which began in 1975, was completed for the 1977 season to give the Broncos the sev-enth-largest home facility in the league. Denver voters passed a $25 million bond issue in 1974 to expand and improve the stadium from its capacity of 51,706 to 75,100. The stadium held 63,532 for the 1976 season, halfway through the project.

Bringing the stadium to its final capacity of 76,098 in 1986 was the construction of 60 penthouse suites atop the west stands.

One of the unique aspects of Mile High Stadium was its movable east stands. The massive single section, when fully extended, formed a horseshoe configuration for football, and when retracted, was in position for baseball. The three-tiered structure, measuring 535 feet in length, 135 feet in height and 200 feet in depth, weighed nearly nine million pounds and was moved a distance of 145 feet between the two configurations. The move was facilitated by a process involving a thin layer of water on which the structure moved. Water was pumped onto more than 90,000 square feet of runways and formed a .003-inch sheet upon which the stands rested. Hydraulic rams then pushed the stands forward at the rate of three feet per minute, making the move last somewhere around two hours.

Demolition of Mile High Stadium was completed in March 2002.

A Colorado native and 1971 winner of The Denver Post Gold Helmet Award, he is one of two ath-letes (along with Dave Winfield) drafted by franchises in Major League Baseball, the NBA and the NFL. Logan chose the latter, starring for the Cleveland Browns from 1976-83 and ascending into the top five of virtually every receiving category in the franchise’s record books. He played his final season in Denver in 1984.

Since then, Logan has brought his love for sports and knowledge of the games to Colorado radio listeners. He currently co-hosts a weekday talk show on KOA NewsRadio. He was named 1997 Broadcast Citizen of the Year in Colorado and has been Colorado Sportscaster of the Year three times (1992-93 and ‘98).

Logan also is one of the most accomplished prep football coaches in the country, as he is the only coach in history to lead four different schools to a state title at the highest classification (nine champi-onships total). He is in his 10th season coaching at Cherry Creek High School, winner of the 2014, ‘19 and ‘20 Class 5A state championships.

Logan was named the Denver Broncos’ Don Shula NFL Coach of the Year nominee in 2010 and was named a finalist for the national award in 2014, recognizing his integrity, achievement and leadership demonstrated by the winningest coach in NFL history. In 2021, Logan was named to the 2021 class of the National Federation of State High School Associations (NFHS) National High School Hall of Fame. He also was the recipient of the Denver Athletic Club’s Career Achievement Award in 2012.

Rick Lewis joins Logan for his fifth full season providing color commentary for the Broncos Radio Network. A guest commentator for one game in 2016, Lewis co-hosts a weekday talk show with Logan on KOA NewsRadio, and The Rick Lewis Show (previously The Lewis and Floorwax Show) from 5-9 a.m. each day on 103.5 The Fox. For nearly three decades, Lewis has been one of the top-rated radio personalities in the country and has been awarded Personality of the Year multiple times. He’s an Emmy and Telly award winner for television, and has appeared in major motion pictures, network TV shows, and national commercials.

Lewis’ sports broadcasting experience includes radio and TV play-by-play work for college and high school football, baseball, and basketball, and he previously co-hosted The Truth—a Broncos pregame show—on 103.5 The Fox.

Susie Wargin is in her third season as the sideline reporter for Broncos radio broadcasts. She is a fourth-generation Colorado native. Wargin began her communications career in Fort Collins as a radio intern, while attending Colorado State University. After graduating with a B.A. in Speech Communications from CSU, she pushed buttons for syndicated radio broadcasts. Her dream to be a DJ on the FM dial came true in 1992 when she started weekend overnights at 93.3 KTCL. From there Susie “Rocked the Rockies” at 106.7 KBPI for 9 years and is currently the midday DJ at 103.5 The Fox. While Susie loves music, her passion for sports has been tightly woven into her radio and TV careers: CSU radio football sideline reporter, first full-time female sports reporter for KOA, morning sports anchor at KUSA-TV and the host of specialty shows like the weekly John Elway Show and CSU Coaches Show. Susie has traveled & covered Denver area teams in two Super Bowls, the World Series, Stanley Cup playoffs, Frozen Four and NCAA Bowl games & March Madness. She also covered the 2010 Olympics or KUSA-TV/NBC in Vancouver. Susie is married with two children and enjoys training and competing in running and biking events, as well as spending time with her family.
