The Denver Broncos and Kansas City Chiefs face off in Week 1 of the regular season: It’ll Nix vs. Mahomes.

Right?

When the battle for the AFC West kicks off the season, everyone’s hoping both Bo Nix and Patrick Mahomes are healthy enough to play.

When Broncos – Chiefs kick off Week 1, will Nix and Mahomes play?

As of right now, Bo Nix is almost certainly going to play in Week 1, while Patrick Mahomes is still up in the air.

Nix is recovering from his ankle surgery in January, and then the bone spur cleanup surgery in...

After a standout college career at Texas, quarterback Sam Ehlinger was selected in the 6th round of the 2021 NFL Draft by the Indianapolis Colts. During his time with the Colts, Ehlinger played in just 8 games, including 3 starts, and totaled 573 yards passing, 3 touchdowns, 3 interceptions, completed 63.4% of his passes, and had a QB rating of 76.1.

Ehlinger would stay on the Colts roster through the 2024 season before becoming an unrestricted free agent in 2025. The first few waves of free agency passed without Ehlinger being signed, but on March 31st, he signed a one-year...

The Denver Broncos have a strong draft class and undrafted free agents of around 18 rookies. We’ll get are first real look of them up against seasoned veterans here in a few weeks when Broncos training camp kicks off. While most will be competing for practice squad spots, there will be a handful of guys who will potentially challenge for starter positions.

Of all of the rookies, there is one that I don’t think will unseat one of the two starters ahead of him, but I am hopeful he’ll make enough waves in camp that he’ll get both gameday reps...

For the last four seasons, Mitch Fraboni has been the Bronco long snapper (he was the LS for part of 2022). Long snappers are critical, but forgotten parts of every football team. Like offensive linemen, they only get noticed if they screw up.

Mitch is not only a competent long snapper, but he is also a decent tackler, getting anywhere from four to six tackles on punt coverage every season. Mitch had four tackles (3.5) last season on 75 punts – only 29 of which were returned. The leader on punt tackles for the Denver Broncos last season was JL...

Expectations will increase for Denver Broncos Bo Nix this season.

Not only because it’s his third year in the NFL; the Broncos added a top-notch weapon in Jaylen Waddle, too.

That pickup, plus the re-signing of J.K. Dobbins, and continuity along the offensive line leaves Nix as the X-factor.

Expectations will ramp up for Denver Broncos Bo Nix in Year 3

Being a starting quarterback in the NFL brings a lot of hopes and high standards coming out of the gates. That was true of Bo Nix, who might’ve been the sixth QB drafted in 2024, but he was...

Good morning, Broncos Country!

Training camp is almost here.

After the best season in a decade, Bo Nix and the Denver Broncos will look to take that next step. The good news is just about everyone is back in 2026. While the subtraction of John Franklin Myers could be big on defense, literally and figuratively, the addition of Jaylen Waddle at receiver is a great counter.

As training camp nears for the Broncos, Waddle in this offense has me the most excited. Adding Waddle’s game-breaking speed, explosiveness, and limitless possibilities will make Denver’s offense better, but it’ll make Nix...

There have been 90 different players to be a starting center in the NFL 2020 to 2025 (last six seasons). I define a starting center as a player who starts eight or more games in a season. The Broncos have had two of those, Lloyd Cushenberry III and Luke Wattenberg, and they drafted both of the players. Another starting center was drafted by the Broncos, Connor McGovern, but he was drafted before this time window.

So I wanted to know know often drafted offensive linemen become long-term starters in the NFL. I broke it down by position to keep it...

With their 166th overall selection in the 5th round of the 2022 NFL Draft, the Cincinnati Bengals selected safety Tycen Anderson. After a successful college career at Toledo, Anderson looked to make a name for himself in the NFL with the Bengals.

His rookie season with the Bengals was cut short due to a hamstring injury that landed him on injured reserve. He would not appear in a game that season but would look to bounce back in 2023. That season, he would end up making the team and appear in 7 games for the Bengals and become a key...

Good morning, Broncos Country.

The Denver Broncos are just a few weeks away from kicking off their annual training camp festivities. Boasting a strong roster with quality starters and ample depth at most positions, there aren’t a whole lot of spots up for grabs. However, there will be fierce competition for a handful of backend roster spots worth keeping an eye on. Here are the three position battles I’m most intrigued by leading up to training camp.

Which linebacker will top the depth chart behind Alex Singleton and Justin Strnad?

Much to the chagrin of Broncos Country, the...

The Denver Broncos wide receiver room is the deepest it’s been in over a decade as the unit aims to give Bo Nix everything he needs to lead the team to the Super Bowl in his third season.

Broncos Camp: Denver Broncos WR Room Is Loaded Going Into 2026

Courtland Sutton has been the Denver Broncos top wide receiver since taking over the room in 2019, and now he’s got a legitimate counterpart next to him that will help open up the offense.

Sutton saw a lot of bracket attention in key passing down situations last season, but he...

If I ask you which QBs had the 10 best seasons 2016-2025, you will get a lot of consensus. This is also true for RBs, WRs and TEs, because most fans tend to pay attention to the stats that these ball carriers put up. Unfortunately, it is much harder for the rest of the players on the offense, i.e. the offensive line.

SISdatahub.com has ten seasons worth of individual performance data for offensive linemen which I have now compiled/scrubbed into my own spreadsheet. I did this for both passing snaps and running snaps which they split out.

To review these...

In the second round of the 2022 NFL Draft, the Denver Broncos selected Oklahoma edge rusher Nik Bonitto with their 64th overall selection. Expectations were high on the young pass rusher; however, his rookie year would be a struggle. He would only total 1.5 sacks and struggle against the run, which, as a result, had some fans calling the Broncos’ young pass rusher a bust. However, in year two under newly hired defensive coordinator Vance Joseph, Bonitto would explode for 8 sacks and show the potential that General Manager George Paton saw when he drafted him.

In year three is...
