Broncos Promote Reed Burckhardt Assistant GM After Staff Departures

The Denver Broncos have made significant changes to their front office following the departure of assistant general manager Darren Mougey, who left to become the New York Jets' general manager. In response, GM George Paton promoted Reed Burckhardt, previously the director of player personnel and a longtime associate of Paton from their Minnesota Vikings days, to the assistant GM role. The Broncos also brought back Jordan Dizon as director of pro personnel and hired Cam Williams as co-director of player personnel, both promotions reflecting the organization's internal growth and external recruitment. These moves come amidst a broader front office shakeup, including the loss of other key executives like Brian Stark to the Las Vegas Raiders. Paton has expanded and strengthened the Broncos' personnel department, tripling the number of top associates compared to John Elway's final year as GM, signaling a robust and growing organizational structure. The front office changes are viewed positively, as Broncos personnel continue to be sought after by other clubs, indicating a strong and developing team infrastructure.
