Broncos’ John Elway takes part in ALS Ice Bucket Challenge
By Sam Richmond
We’ve seen various members of the sports world participate in the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge, such as Tony Romo, Dez Bryant and Mike Krzyzewski. Now, Denver Broncos legend and current team general manager is doing his part to raise awareness for ALS.
This led to an incredible picture that Elway tweeted out.

It’s certainly cool to see guys like Elway with such a great platform to take part in this and raise awareness for a good cause.
Also, the challenge calls for participants to call out others to get involved and Elway chose people involved in the NFL, helping spread this cause further into the sports world.
John Elway took the #ALSIceBucketChallenge and challenged Tom Telesco and Reggie McKenzie. John Dorsey must feel slighted.

Tom Telesco is the general manager of the San Diego Chargers while Reggie McKenzie holds the same title with the Oakland Raiders.
Based on Elway’s picture, McKenzie and Telesco might have a difficult time doing the challenge as well as the Broncos GM did.
To check out the video of Elway’s ice bath, head to the Broncos’ official website.
