The Broncos are looking for a general manager and would like to speak to a former member of the organization about the opening.
KUSA’s Mike Klis reports that the Broncos requested permission to interview Bears assistant director Champ Kelly. The Panthers made the same request.
Kelly has been in his current job since 2017 and he joined Bears in 2015. He has worked for the Broncos for the past eight seasons.
John Elway was the general manager and executive vice president of football operations for much of that time. He remained a GM until Monday’s announcement that he would step down from those roles, remaining as president of football operations.
