Bailey was also inducted as the 33rd member of the team's Ring of Fame. At a ceremony unveiling his 8-foot bronze pillar Friday night, Bailey chimed in on the current state of the Broncos, saying,

"It's just growing pains. There are a lot of new people around here, a good young corps, but I expect them to turn around. That's the good thing about here, we don't stay down long."
