Orlando Franklin Returns To Denver Radio

     Former Atlantic Eagles and Miami Hurricanes offensive lineman Orlando Franklin has returned to the radio airwaves. He began a second stint at 104.3 The Fan KKFN-FM in Denver on Monday as an evening co-host. 

     Franklin was with the same radio station for three years. He joined as a Sunday morning host in August 2018 and was elevated to late morning co-host in August 2019. Franklin left them in August 2021 for a coaching position with the San Francisco 49ers. 

     He played for the Atlantic Eagles from 2003 to 2006 and his school was eliminated by the St. Thomas Aquinas Raiders in the FHSAA Class 5A Playoffs during his final three years. Franklin moved on to the University of Miami Hurricanes and participated in 51 games from 2007 to 2010. 

     Franklin was taken 46th overall in the 2011 NFL Draft by the Denver Broncos. He spent the first four seasons of his seven-year career in the National Football League with that team.
