1997 - 1999
The Broncos radically changed their logo in 1997, a design that the team continues to use to this day. The new logo was unveiled on February 4, 1997. Navy blue replaced royal blue on the team’s color scheme. The current logo is a profile of a white horse’s head with a navy blue outline, with an orange mane and navy blue outlines.
The first Nike-heavy design to hit the NFL.

In 1993, the white horse had a different black outline and facial features. The large orange "D" is the same as the last logo.

The logo was redesigned so that a white horse is coming out of a large orange letter “D.” The horse has seam coming out of his nose.
In a letter written in 1968, the Broncos organization thanks Pat Taylor’s father, Edwin Taylor: “To Edwin G Taylor, we thought you would be pleased to know that the design suggestion you forwarded to us last year has been accepted as the new Denver Bronco helmet ornamentation. The Denver Broncos were looking for an update to their logo.
“I mean here’s this Bucking Bronco that looks like its emaciated, I mean yeah and they played the way their emblem looked,” said Pat of the even older Broncos logo that featured a orange bucking horse with a football player in an orange uniform riding him.
Taylor delivered that update. “That’s what he came up with. The stallion, the power,” said Pat. Taylor had one day sketched the now iconic D and sent the idea to the team. For what could be considered one of his greatest creations, Taylor received that letter from the team, a shirt, hat and two tickets in the south stands for a game against the Kansas City Chiefs. Tickets that Taylor never used.
