Denver Broncos Legend Karl Mecklenburg Former Denver Broncos
Captain and All-Pro Linebacker Karl Mecklenburg rose from being a
college walk-on and a 12th round draft pick to a pro career that
included six Pro Bowl and three Super Bowl appearances.
Considered the NFL's most versatile player, Karl played all seven
defensive front positions. Bronco coaches wanted him at the point
of attack and would move him throughout the game. There were many
games where Mecklenburg played all 7 positions in the course of a
single game. 





In 2001, Karl was inducted into the Denver Broncos Ring of Fame
and the Colorado Sports Hall of Fame.





Karl is a member of the National Speakers Association. He enjoys
speaking to a variety of groups, and his story is both humorous
and inspirational. The lessons life in the NFL taught him about
teamwork, courage, dedication, desire, honesty and forgiveness,
and goal setting are his "Six Keys to Success". 





As a highly regarded speaker, Karl tailors his presentations to
the needs of the group while teaching and inspiring his audience.
His legendary NFL career draws many attendees to events, and the
content and delivery of his presentation sends his audience home
with a renewed commitment to their goals.





Since retiring from pro football in 1995, Karl divides his time
between motivational speaking and his ongoing charity
commitments. Karl and his wife Kathi have three children. The
Mecklenburgs still live in Littleton, Colorado.
