Veteran businessman Gregg Penner currently serves as chairman of Walmart Group. He is in his fourth season as owner and CEO of the Denver Broncos. The Broncos are now a highly regarded and revered franchise thanks to his perseverance and commitment.

The Ugly Cona travels from locker room to fields across the nation with D.J. Jones, Malcolm Roach and Eyioma Uwazurike, the grunt-work technicians of Vance Joseph’s defense in Denver.

Joseph remains well-liked in Miami, where he was a one-year DC — before being hired as Broncos HC — according to Fowler. The Raiders interviewed Joseph this past year, and Graziano adds he could be a candidate in Las Vegas again.

The Denver Broncos are having an incredible season and a win over the Green Bay Packers this week would cement their status as Super Bowl contenders.

Sixteen weeks into the 2025 NFL season, the Denver Broncos have a 2.6 Football Power Index (FPI) rating from ESPN, which ranks ninth in the NFL. The Kansas City Chiefs, who will travel to Denver in Week 17, are ranked 19th with a -1.4 FPI rating.
