A quick recap of what went down during today’s Broncos training camp practice.
Day 9 of Broncos Camp is in the books, and it was a quick non-padded ramp-up day after a day off on Sunday and a busy week ahead. They’ll have another practice tomorrow before a travel day on Wednesday, a key joint practice with the 49ers on Thursday, and their preseason opener on Saturday.
In today’s recap, I will update you on what went on during today’s practice, injury updates, and notable information from Head Coach Sean Payton.
Broncos Camp Recap
- QB Bo Nix had two interceptions during today’s practice. The first one was on a seam route to WR Courtland Sutton, and safety Devon Key jumped the route and picked it. The other came during a team drill on a free play, according to some reporters, and was picked by linebacker Justin Strnad. Payton downplayed the importance of camp interceptions, and frankly, they really don’t matter much in the grand scheme of things. - Source
- Some notes from the one-on-one drills from today. Rookie TE Caleb Lohner had a nice double move on safety Sam Franklin. Rookie CB Jahdae Barron prevented a Courtland Sutton TD. Rookie WR Pat Bryant beat PS2 and showed off his route-running ability to gain some space on the DPOY. UDFA Joaquin Davis used his size to pluck a TD reception over CB Riley Moss - Source
