Football Players who Played for Broncos and Saints
There is a good chance that if you’ve found this page then you’re playing the Immaculate Grid.
That also means that today’s grid has asked for players that have played for both the Denver Broncos and New Orleans Saints.
And, it also means that you’re probably stuck on this particular box and you’re looking for a little help. Sound about right so far?
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 Saints.
Teddy Bridgewater
Teddy Bridgewater was drafted by the Minnesota Vikings in the first round of the 2014 NFL Draft after a stellar collegiate career at the University of Louisville. In Minnesota, Bridgewater showed promise early, earning a Pro Bowl selection in his second season.
Unfortunately, a severe knee injury during the 2016 preseason sidelined him for nearly two full seasons. Upon his return, Bridgewater spent time with the Jets and the Saints, filling in admirably for an injured Drew Brees in 2019.
His performance led to a starting opportunity with the Carolina Panthers in 2020, where he provided steady quarterback play. In 2021, Bridgewater was traded to the Denver Broncos, where he competed for and won the starting quarterback job.
Bridgewater Key Stats
- Pro Bowl (Vikings)
- 3000+ Yard Passing Season (Vikings, Panthers, Broncos)
Latavius Murray
Latavius Murray, a running back who kicked off his career with the Oakland Raiders in 2013, served as the team’s lead back from 2014 to 2016, even earning a Pro Bowl nod in 2015 when he rushed for 1066 yards and six touchdowns.
He joined the Minnesota Vikings in 2017, where he proved to be a reliable and efficient rusher, racking up 842 yards and eight touchdowns in his best season with the team (2018).
Since 2019, Murray has bounced around with multiple teams but is always a solid contributor no matter whose backfield he’s in.
Emmanuel Sanders
Emmanuel Sanders was a wide receiver known for his route-running precision and reliable hands. He was selected by the Pittsburgh Steelers in the third round of the 2010 NFL Draft after an impressive college career at SMU.
Sanders played in Pittsburgh for four seasons (2010-2013) before signing with the Denver Broncos, where he enjoyed five productive seasons (2014-2019) and won Super Bowl 50. Sanders later had stints with the 49ers, Saints and Bills.
