Well, good news, you’re in the right place.
I’ve done some research and have found players who played on both the Broncos and Eagles.
Brian Dawkins
Brian Dawkins was selected in the second round of the 1996 NFL Draft by the Philadelphia Eagles. Dawkins spent the majority of his illustrious career with the Eagles, from 1996 to 2008, before playing his final three seasons with the Denver Broncos.
Dawkins was a nine-time Pro Bowl selection and earned First-Team All-Pro honors four times. He was well-known for his ferocious style of play, versatility, and leadership both on and off the field. He became the heart and soul of the Eagles’ defense and was equally proficient in pass coverage, run support, and as a blitzer.
He’s one of the few players in NFL history to record at least 25 interceptions, 25 forced fumbles, and 25 sacks over his career. Brian Dawkins was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2018, a fitting honor for a player who left an indelible mark on the league.

While Brister never reached a Pro Bowl, he did win two Super Bowl rings as a backup with the Denver Broncos in Super Bowl XXXII and XXXIII. Over his career, Brister threw for over 14,000 yards with 81 touchdowns and 78 interceptions.
Marco Coleman
Marco Coleman was a first-round draft pick, selected 12th overall by the Miami Dolphins in the 1992 NFL Draft. He played college football at Georgia Tech, where he gained recognition as one of the nation’s top defensive prospects.
