DeMarcus Ware was enshrined into the Pro Football Hall of Fame on Saturday as he joined fellow Denver Broncos greats including John Elway, Terrell Davis and Peyton Manning.
Ware played nine seasons with the Dallas Cowboys, but he became a Broncos legend due to his three seasons in the Mile High City. In three seasons, Ware appeared in two Pro Bowls, racked up 21.5 sacks, and helped anchor a star-studded defense in the 2015 season as Denver won the Super Bowl for that season.
To commemorate the occasion, Manning and fellow Super Bowl champion teammate Von Miller spoke on Ware getting the prestigious honor.
“His impact was immediate,” Manning told the team’s official website. “It was a real honor and privilege to play with him and especially now to call him a friend.”
