With the Denver Broncos set to begin their second week of OTAs today, we're rolling out a very early 53-man roster prediction for the 2026 season.
The notable cuts/practice squad candidates include running back Tyler Badie; wide receivers WR Lil'Jordan Humphrey and Michael Bandy; tight ends Dallen Bentley and Caleb Lohner; offensive linemen Calvin Throckmorton, Matt Peart and Nick Gargiulo; defensive linemen Matt Henningsen and Jordan Jackson; outside linebackers Johnny Walker and Dasan McCullough; linebackers Lavelle Bailey, Jordan Turner, Red Murdock and Taurean York; cornerbacks Reese Taylor and Brent Austin; and safeties Tycen Anderson and JL Skinner.
Admittedly, it's way too early to make an accurate 53-man roster projection. Several position battles will be sorted out during training camp and preseason this summer, and we'll have a better projection later in the year. For now, though, here's a look at the current prediction.
Following OTAs this week, Denver will hold a mandatory minicamp next week (June 16-18), then players will have a summer break until training camp begins in late July. The Broncos will play three preseason games in August before finalizing an initial 53-man roster by Aug. 30.
