After agreeing to terms with new general manager George Paton on Wednesday, Denver Broncos president of football operations John Elway released the following statement:
“Early in this process, it became clear why George has been such a coveted GM candidate for so many years. He is a proven evaluator who knows every detail of leading football operations. With his experience in all aspects of the job — the college and pro sides, salary cap, trades, working with the head coach and bringing the staff together — George is more than ready to succeed in this role. George has waited and worked for the right opportunity, which shows that he is smart and serious about winning. We’re thrilled to name George Paton as general manager of the Denver Broncos.”
Elway will rank above Paton but the new GM will be in charge of the team’s roster. Paton is expected to hold a Zoom press conference next week.
