Summary
The Denver Broncos defense exploded last season, and now the front office is racing to lock down key players before they hit free agency or walk away. With big contract decisions looming for stars like Brandon Jones and Talanoa Hufanga, and injury-prone Cody Barton still on the sidelines, the Broncos are taking a cautious approach—using OTAs to map out roles before negotiating extensions. Complicating matters, nearly $37 million in option bonuses loom in early September, including a massive $15M payout for defensive anchor Zach Allen. The Broncos face a high-wire act: balancing the books while keeping their elite defense intact for the future. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
