Broncos announce inactives for Week 1 game vs. Seahawks

by with No Comment Uncategorized

SEATTLE — The Broncos have announced their list of inactive players for their Week 1 game against the Seahawks.

The following players are inactive for Denver: Quarterback Zach Wilson (emergency third quarterback), wide receiver Troy Franklin, running back Blake Watson, cornerback Kris Abrams-Draine, tackle Frank Crum, tight end Lucas Krull and defensive lineman Eyioma Uwazurike.

Under NFL rules, teams are permitted to designate a quarterback on their active roster as the emergency third quarterback. Wilson will dress for the game but will be permitted to play only if quarterbacks Bo Nix and Jarrett Stidham suffer injuries.

Four of the Broncos’ six rookie draft picks on their 53-man roster are active for Sunday’s game, as Nix, outside linebacker Jonah Elliss, running back Audric Estime and wide receiver Devaughn Vele are active in Week 1 of their rookie careers.

Denver previously elevated fullback Mike Burton and wide receiver Lil’Jordan Humphrey from the practice squad, and both players are active for the game.

The Broncos did not rule any players out for the game due to injury.

Seahawks vs. Broncos 2024 – Inactives

by with No Comment Uncategorized

Tyler Lockett, who is kicking off his 10th season in the NFL, will be active for Sunday season opener against the Denver Broncos.

Lockett was listed as questionable on Friday’s injury report due to a thigh injury, though Seahawks coach Mike Macdonald said he expected the veteran receiver to play.

The Seahawks will be without two players due to injury, outside linebacker Uchenna Nwosu and tight end Pharaoh Brown, who were both ruled out on Friday.

Also active is safety Marquise Blair, who was elevated from the practice squad on Saturday. Sunday’s game will mark the former second-round pick’s first appearance for the Seahawks since Week 7 of the 2021 season. Cornerback Artie Burns, who was also elevated from the practice squad, is inactive.

Of the Seahawks’ five healthy scratches, three are offensive linemen, which doesn’t come as a surprise given that they kept 11 offensive linemen, a higher than usual number, on their 53-man roster.

Here are the inactives for both teams:

QBs Jarrett Stidham, Zach Wilson deliver strong performances as Broncos end preseason with win

by with No Comment Uncategorized

DENVER — There’s never a bad time to win.

The Broncos did so convincingly on Sunday, as they closed the preseason with a 38-12 win over the Cardinals to wrap up an undefeated preseason.

“I said to [the team] afterwards, ‘Don’t ever get tired of how it feels to win,'” Head Coach Sean Payton said. “Granted, we’re substituting groups and we’re needing to get groups evaluated, and yet we still want to win. I felt the energy. … That part of it’s encouraging.”

Punctuated by a 94-yard pick-six by undrafted rookie Levelle Bailey, the Broncos never trailed in their win over the Cardinals.

“I liked the energy again,” Payton said. “I thought even the guys that were not necessarily playing were into the game. That is encouraging. You can pick any number, and it is going to kind of give you the stat line. When you score on defense, you are going to have some success. I think we had two takeaways, and we protected the ball. So, overall, I was pleased with how we finished this preseason. We will get a lot of film look on some guys, and then we begin that process the next two days relative to the roster.”

Quarterbacks Jarrett Stidham and Zach Wilson were among the players who impressed Payton with their performances.

“Both those guys looked good,” Payton said.

Stidham got the start and played just one series, as he led Denver on a 10-play, 55-yard touchdown drive. The defining play came on fourth-and-2 from the Arizona 32-yard line, as Stidham found rookie Devaughn Vele in the middle of the field for a 14-yard completion that moved the chains. Running back Audric Estime, who totaled 32 scrimmage yards on the drive, plunged in from three yards out for the opening touchdown.

“I knew coming into it, if I went down and scored on the first drive I’d probably be done,” Stidham said. “Really proud of the guys putting it in there after the [Cardinals’] missed field goal. It was great.”

Wilson then came on in relief and led three touchdown drives over the remainder of the game. His first scoring drive was jump-started by a 21-yard scramble in which he dove forward for the first down after facing a second-and-20. Wilson added passes for 24 yards to David Sills, 19 yards to Nate Adkins and 14 yards to Sills before he found an open Adkins for a 1-yard touchdown.

In the third quarter, Wilson launched a deep pass to Brandon Johnson for a 37-yard gain that set up a 1-yard quarterback sneak.

Wilson’s best pass, though, may have come late in the game. With just over six minutes to play, Wilson dropped a 46-yard rainbow in to Johnson right before the defender arrived to try to break up the pass. Johnson skated into the end zone for Wilson’s second touchdown pass of the afternoon.

Zach Wilson leads the Broncos’ backups to a 38-12 win over the Cardinals in preseason finale | National Sports

by with No Comment Uncategorized

DENVER (AP) — Zach Wilson and Jarrett Stidham both made strong closing cases for surviving roster cuts after losing out to rookie Bo Nix in the Denver Broncos’ latest quarterback competition.

Stidham directed an efficient touchdown drive Sunday in his only possession and Wilson drove Denver on four scoring drives as the Broncos wrapped up a perfect preseason with a 38-12 walloping of the Arizona Cardinals.

“Both those guys looked good,” said Broncos coach Sean Payton, who reiterated that he’d like to keep all three QBs when final cuts are made Tuesday. “We feel comfortable with all three.”

In his most extensive action this summer, Wilson jumpstarted a touchdown drive with a 21-yard scramble and threw a 46-yard TD on a frozen rope of a pass to Brandon Johnson with a beaten defensive back cutting across his path and he sped into the end zone.

Stidham’s cameo concluded with rookie running back Audric Estime’s 3-yard score.

“It was great,” Stidham said. “I knew going into it if I went down and scored on the first drive I’d probably be done. So, I’m really proud of the guys.”

Wilson, the former second overall draft pick by the Jets in 2021, has 33 career NFL starts and that experience showed when he sparked an 11-play, 77-yard touchdown drive with an impressive scramble from his own 13 on second-and-20. He finished that drive with a 1-yard touchdown toss to tight end Nate Atkins that gave Denver a 14-0 lead.

“I think getting hit in the face” on the long scramble “will help you get ready,” Wilson said with a smile.

Wilson’s 1-yard keeper capped an 88-yard drive that made it 24-6 in the third quarter and he found Johnson from 46 yards out with 6:22 remaining.

Wilson finished 16 of 25 for 251 yards, two TDs and no interceptions in relief of Stidham, who directed a 10-play, 55-yard drive by going 2 of 4 for 28 yards.

Payton bristled when asked if financial ramifications will come into play when deciding how many QBs to keep. Stidham is due $5 million this season and there’s been speculation he might have to take a paycut to stick around.

“No, we’ve got enough money,” Payton said. “I understand the question. We feel comfortable with those three quarterbacks. I think I’ve told you already I see the three of them making it.”

When that notion was relayed to Wilson in the locker room, he said, “Yeah, exciting. But you know cut day’s not until Tuesday, so we’ll see what happens.”

Clayton Tune and Desmond Ridder split snaps in their final audition to serve as Kyler Murray’s backup in Arizona (0-3). Tune was 12 of 18 for 119 yards with no touchdowns, an interceptions and a pair of sacks by Jordan Jackson.

Ridder was 10 of 16 for 111 yards in relief of Tune when he went to the medical tent in the closing minutes following a hard hit that left him in concussion protocol. Tune went back in and on his first snap threw an interception that linebacker Levelle Bailey returned 96 yards for a touchdown.

Denver DB Kedron Smith recorded his third takeaway of the preseason when he recovered Tony Jones Jr.’s fumble at the Denver 3. Jones was knocked from the game with a shoulder injury on the play.

Matt Prater’s 50-yarder as the first half expired made it 14-3. He tacked on a 24-yarder and Haassan Hall accounted for Arizona’s only touchdown with a 3-yard run in the fourth quarter that made it 24-12.

“I just told ’em the effort was good, they battled in there today. But you lost the explosive play battle, you lost the takeaway battle. And that’s what happens, you get beat,” Cardinals coach Jonathan Gannon said.

Cardinals safety Darren Hall said the turnovers not withstanding, the Cardinals “feel good.”

“We’re still building. We’ve got a long way to go but as a team we’re real close. We have a real close bond,” he said. “The sky’s the limit for this team.”

Injuries

Denver DB Damarri Mathis, who started 17 games over the last two seasons, injured his right ankle on a tackle on the game’s second play from scrimmage and was carted off. Payton said it didn’t appear signficant. Broncos LB Durell Nchami pulled a hamstring. Cardinals CBs Divaad Wilson (wrist), Elijah Jones (ankle) and Darren Hall (hip) all got hurt and Cardinals TE Sage Surratt (ankle) left in the third quarter. O-lineman Christian Jones was carted off in the waning minutes with an unspecified injury.

Bo Nix named Broncos’ starting quarterback

by with No Comment Uncategorized

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — It’s Bo time.

Following Wednesday’s practice, Head Coach Sean Payton named rookie Bo Nix as the Broncos’ starting quarterback.

“Bo Nix is going to be our starting quarterback,” Payton said. “I felt like — and I said this to [the media] two weeks ago — that room has been outstanding. [Jarrett] Stidham, certainly with his experience and then being able to work with Zach Wilson. All three of those guys. We’ve got some decisions as we get into the roster. I don’t want to get into all the other roster battles. That’s not for today. But Bo will start. We’ve kind of gone through our process. In the very beginning of it all, just speaking with [General Manager] George [Paton] and [Owner & CEO] Greg [Penner] and understanding that oftentimes these things take care of themselves, but we’re not in a hurry to arrive at those type of decisions. We want to see it. I think it’s important relative to the team that we handle it that way. He’s been outstanding. Obviously there’s a ton of room for growth. There’s a lot of things that he needs to work on.”

Payton said he told Nix and the Broncos’ other quarterbacks of the news before Wednesday’s practice.

Nix, the 12th-overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, will make his first career start against the Seattle Seahawks on Sept. 8. The Oregon product will become just the second Broncos rookie to start at quarterback in Week 1, joining John Elway in 1983.

“It will be a special moment,” Nix said of his first start. “Obviously, that’s great to share with such a great player like John Elway, but [I] definitely want to [go] out there and [do] whatever I can do ultimately for the team. It doesn’t matter when your first start is. It doesn’t matter if you have to wait or you go right now. You just want to go out there and get the first win and ultimately compete at a high level and give your team the best chance possible. That’s what my goal is at the beginning, just to give our team the best chance to go out there and win games every week.”

Asked whether Nix would be the season-long starter, Payton said every player on the roster will have to perform to maintain their role during the 2024 season.

“This goes for the team: There’s no tour exemptions for 17 weeks like [the BMW Championship at] Castle Pines right now,” Payton said. “These guys are earning each week and playing well each week. It’s not just the QBs, but you don’t get a season exemption. You’ve got to play.”

Nix began to compete for the role immediately after the draft, as he split first-team reps with Jarrett Stidham and Zach Wilson during the offseason program and early part of training camp. He and Stidham then alternated opportunities with the first-team offense as training camp progressed.

In his first preseason action, Nix entered the game following Stidham and completed 15-of-21 passes for 125 yards and a touchdown for a 102.3 quarterback rating against the Colts.

On Sunday, Nix started the Broncos’ preseason home opener and posted a near-flawless performance. The rookie completed 8-of-9 passes for 80 yards, a touchdown and a 140.7 quarterback rating.

Through two games, Nix has completed 23-of-30 passes for 205 yards, two touchdowns and a 116.7 quarterback rating. Nix has also rushed six times for 29 yards. The rookie did not throw an interception or take a sack in his two preseason appearances.

“The larger body of work,” said Payton when asked what separated Nix in the competition. “There’s certain things right now with Stiddy’s experience that you see. I would say a lot of the off-schedule movement throws. I think he’s been consistent. It’s not really a reflection on Jarrett or even Zach. It’s some of the things that he’s been able to do pretty quickly. His arm strength down the field — all the things when we evaluated him. You kind of trust your instincts.”

Bo Nix named Broncos starting quarterback

by with No Comment Uncategorized

The Denver Broncos have a starting quarterback for the 2024 season, as Sean Payton announced on Wednesday that rookie Bo Nix will be the No. 1 guy this fall.

Nix was one of three players gunning for the gig. Journeyman Jarett Stidham got the start in the first preseason game but only got a few reps before handing over the keys to Nix, who even played with the first team. Meanwhile, Zach Wilson got some time against the Colts at the end with the Broncos backups. Stidham started at the end of last season for the Broncos while Denver traded for the former first-rounder Wilson this offseason after a few bad years as the Jets starter.

“Just speaking with George (Paton) and Greg (Penner) and understanding that you oftentimes these things take care of themselves, but we’re not in a hurry to arrive at those type of decisions,” Payton said while announcing the choice. “I think it’s important, relative to the team, that we handle it that way. He’s been outstanding. Obviously, there’s a ton of room for growth. There’s a lot of things that he needs to work on.

“I’ve already spoken with, with all three of those guys. They will be a great resource for him (Nix,) as well as Zach. We made some really good decisions, and we’re going to have a chance to see them unfold as the season goes on.”

The Broncos wrap up the preseason with a 1:30 p.m. MST hosting of the Arizona Cardinals. Payton did not address Nix’s status for the game, but Denver had prior to naming him the starter listed Nix as the No. 3 QB on the depth chart, behind Stidham and Wilson.

Nix, 24, was taken in the first round of the 2024 NFL Draft by Denver. He is coming off a Heisman-nominated final year for the Oregon Ducks. Nix was a five-year starter in college for the Ducks and Auburn Tigers, finishing his school time as the Offensive Player of the Year in the Pac-12 last fall. Nix threw for 4,508 yards and 45 touchdowns to just three interceptions while tacking on another 234 yards and six touchdowns on the ground last fall. In 2022, Nix actually rushed for 510 yards and 14 touchdowns, showing he’s capable of getting outside of the pocket and is willing to put his body on the line.

“I think there is a maturity level to him that maybe is different than a lot of rookies,” Payton said. “That is kind of part of this COVID segment of football where it’s unusual because of what happened during COVID and so you do feel a maturity level in handling the media. That experience with things, you do feel that with this player.

In his first two preseason games, Nix’s 116.7 passer rating is second among all QBs this preseason. He’s thrown for 205 yards, connecting on 23 of his 30 tosses with two touchdowns to boot.

Payton did say this does not guarantee the job to Nix for all 17 games.

Packers vs. Broncos: What to watch for

by with No Comment Uncategorized

DENVER – Two days after practicing with the Broncos in Denver, the Packers will play their second preseason game of 2024 against them Sunday night.

Here’s what to watch for.

Reserve QBs take center stage: With the starting units getting the bulk of the work in the joint practice, they’re not expected to play in the game. That means Sean Clifford will start at QB for the Packers, with Michael Pratt following shortly behind.

Head Coach Matt LaFleur didn’t fully divulge the plan for how the QB snaps would be divvied up, but Pratt was given some reps with the second-team offense in practice this past week and might get that opportunity again during the game. It remains to be seen whether Clifford and Pratt are not just competing to be Jordan Love’s top backup, but also competing for just one spot on the roster. It’s possible. Or the Packers might keep three quarterbacks. Either way, their game performances matter greatly.

Who can shine again?: When it comes to young players making a splash in the preseason, the question always lingering is whether a strong performance was a one-off, or can it be repeated?

Running back Emanuel Wilson has shined multiple times in the preseason now, and he could be in for a lot of work with running backs MarShawn Lloyd and Jarveon Howard both injured.

Receiver Grant DuBose was a big star last week in Cleveland with five catches for 66 yards and will look to do it again. Same with rookie safety Evan Williams, who had a half dozen tackles and a forced fumble in just 23 snaps vs. the Browns. Both of those players have carried over strong work on the practice field into the games, and will look to keep it up.

On the offensive line, Sean Rhyan and rookie Jacob Monk both had solid games a week ago and hope to continue their positive momentum. Both linemen have been working at guard and center with various units.

On the bounce-back side of things, receiver Bo Melton had a couple of dropped passes in Cleveland and will push to get back on track in that heated competition at his position.

Linebacker shuffle: Second-round rookie Edgerrin Cooper has yet to return from a hip injury, and Quay Walker likely won’t play. Whether veterans Isaiah McDuffie and/or Eric Wilson would play isn’t clear.

Third-round rookie Ty’Ron Hoppermissed some time with an ankle injury but was back in 11-on-11 work in the joint practice in Denver. If he gets cleared to play, this could be a huge opportunity for him.

Same for special-teams standout Kristian Welch, who could get a lot of snaps at linebacker as he aims to lock down a roster spot. Or maybe an undrafted rookie like Ralen Goforth, who has taken some reps further up the depth chart with all the injury shuffling going on, makes his bid with a long look.

Colts fall to Broncos in first preseason game of 2024

by with No Comment Uncategorized

The Broncos quickly answered right back, however, as Bo Nix led an 11-play, 45 yard drive that brought the Broncos within field goal position at the beginning of the second quarter. Broncos’ kicker Will Lutz’s 41-yard kick was good and the two teams were even once again.

After the Colts’ ensuing drive ended in a missed 54-yard field goal from Gay, Nix once again took control against the Colts’ defense and struck for a 10-play, 56-yard drive that ended in a Broncos touchdown.

In keeping with the back-and-forth trend of the game, the Colts quickly answered with their own touchdown drive, led this time by Sam Ehlinger. The eight-play drive started with a 39-yard pass play to wide receiver D.J. Montgomery, and from then on consisted of Ehlinger primarily handing the ball off to running back Evan Hull to creep closer to the endzone. On third and goal from the one-yard line, Hull launched himself up the middle and into the endzone. Gay’s successful extra point kick tied the game at 10.
