Karl Mecklenburg Biography

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 games where Mecklenburg played all seven positions in the course of a single game.

In 2001, Mecklenburg was inducted into the Denver Broncos Ring of Fame and the Colorado Sports Hall of Fame. He was a semifinalist for the Pro Football Hall of Fame for eight consecutive years.

Mecklenburg has earned the Certified Speaking Professional designation from the National Speaker’s Association, making him the only football legend to have achieved Certified Speaking Professional designation. 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, Mecklenburg 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.
