Fletcher, the Broncos' all-time leader in sacks, started in three Super Bowls (XXI, XXII and XXIV) and spent his entire 11-season career in Denver from 1985 through 1995. He recorded 97.5 career sacks, setting an NFL record with a sack in 10 consecutive games over the 1992-93 seasons and played in a Denver-record 172 consecutive games.
His 20 multi-sack games is also a Broncos record as Fletcher led the team in sacks for seven consecutive seasons (1998-94).

Fletcher joins the Broncos Ring of Fame with former Broncos Jason Elam and John Lynch. The three will become the 29th, 30th and 31st members of the exclusive group.
