He played for the Denver Broncos in 1963, and for the Buffalo Bills in 1964 and 1965, playing on the Bills' two league championship teams.

Groman started his career off with a bang, having a rookie year like no other receiver ever had before or since. In the first game he played (the first ever one for the Oilers as well), he caught six passes for 115 yards and one touchdown as the Oilers prevailed 37–22 over the Oakland Raiders. He played in 13 of the 14 games in the Oilers season, and he caught 72 passes for 1,473 yards with 12 touchdowns (including an additional one involving him throwing a pass for three yards for a score). In the AFL title game on January 1, 1961, he caught three passes for 37 yards and one touchdown, with his score in the third quarter giving the Oilers a 17–9 lead on the way to a 24–16 win over the Los Angeles Chargers. Groman has more yards receiving in a rookie year than any other player (1,473 in 1960, when the season was 14 games long rather than the current 17). He was selected as one of the offensive ends on the first Sporting News AFL All-League Team in 1960. Alongside his teammate Charlie Hennigan, they were referred to as "The Long-Distance Twins", with Groman benefitting from his quick feet that had him as a track star in college.
