Webb shines as Broncos open preseason with decisive win under Payton

Denver routed Atlanta 27-7 in the first 2026 preseason game, with Davis Webb commanding a smooth sequence of drives and showing the kind of rhythm Payton wants from his backup QB. Webb’s quick timing, smart reads and clear leadership helped Denver post 360 rushing/yardage advantages and multiple scoring opportunities, while Jarrett Stidham provided a solid first-half showing. The defense forced punts and two takeaways, including Jahdae Barron’s 98-yard pick-six, signaling regular-season readiness. Rookie Jonah Coleman impressed with four carries for 24 yards, aligning with Payton’s plan to lean on a faster, more competitive offense. Payton stressed the importance of resetting when plays stall and hinted Webb could start handling radio calls into Bo Nix next week, underscoring the overall message: preseason wins matter for development and culture-building as Denver looks to carry momentum into the regular season.

Broncos Hand Play-Calling to Davis Webb as Payton Bets on a Margin-Driven Win

Breer reports that Sean Payton is keeping Davis Webb as the Broncos’ play-caller, arguing the move is a deliberate, evidence-backed strategy to win and will keep Payton involved in the offense while Webb develops. Crosby says he’s content with his Raiders situation after a chaotic trade saga, and Houston’s young core—led by Will Anderson Jr. and Derek Stingley Jr.—is building a “swarm”-style culture on defense with an improving offense. The RB market is heating up after big deals for Bijan Robinson and Jahmyr Gibbs, with Jonathan Taylor’s contract signaling the broader trend. Breer also commends Roger Craig for openly discussing head injuries and signals optimism about Aaron Donald’s return plan, with a phased ramp-up. He closes with quick notes on coaching longevity, preseason usage of Anthony Richardson, and other league-wide topics from Harbaugh/McDaniel to Detroit’s homegrown extensions.

Broncos' 2026 Training Camp Sets Five Storylines in Motion

Denver’s 2026 training camp kicks off with five key storylines: Bo Nix returning from ankle issues and presiding over a revamped offense with a new play-caller and target in Jaylen Waddle; Davis Webb running the offense under Sean Payton’s system for the first time; Waddle’s speed potentially unlocking more plays and changing how the WR corps operates; replacing interior pass rush after John Franklin-Myers’ departure and the uncertainty around Jonathon Cooper; and the looming contract decisions for Riley Moss and Ja’Quan McMillian, plus Jahdae Barron’s development as a potential internal replacement—capturing how the revamped roster and coaching staff adapt in camp, preseason, and beyond.

Broncos elevate Webb to OC and Kilgore to QB Coach

Denver Broncos head coach Sean Payton announced Davis Webb will be Offensive Coordinator and Logan Kilgore will be Quarterbacks Coach. Webb, who joined Denver in 2023 as QB coach and spent 2025 as pass game coordinator/QB coach, contributed to Bo Nix’s historic 7,500-yard, 50-touchdown production and helped the team’s passing offense rise from 20th to 11th in 2025 during his first year as pass game coordinator. Kilgore, previously a Broncos offensive quality control coach, has experience at Bakersfield College, Arkansas State and Isidore Newman and will now work with the tight ends and returners while guiding the Broncos quarterbacks.

Davis Webb Poised to Call the Broncos' Plays as New OC

Denver is moving toward promoting quarterbacks coach Davis Webb to offensive coordinator after Joe Lombardi's dismissal, with Webb having formally interviewed and eyed as a potential future play-caller as Sean Payton considers relinquishing duties; Webb's actual play-calling experience is limited (one preseason game), but his reputation as an offensive guru has drawn league interest, and the 2025 Broncos finished 10th in offense and 14th in scoring while pursuing OC candidates.

Raiders Focus on Kubiak and Webb as They Groom Mendoza for No. 1 Pick

Las Vegas has narrowed its head-coach search to Seahawks offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak and Broncos quarterbacks coach Davis Webb, pairing an offensive-minded leader with the team's plan to develop Indiana QB Fernando Mendoza, the expected No. 1 pick in the 2026 NFL Draft. Kubiak is the favorite after his work with Seattle’s high-powered offense and a strong NFC title performance; Webb, 31, is viewed as a long-term head-coach candidate but lacks coordinator experience. The Raiders intend to grow a young coach and Mendoza together while keeping a Plan B ready, mindful of timing around the Super Bowl and other opportunities for Webb.

Webb steps back from Raiders HC hunt, eyes Broncos OC path

Davis Webb has withdrawn from the Las Vegas Raiders’ head coaching search, clearing the way for other candidates as signs point to Klint Kubiak as the Raiders’ preferred option. Webb remains a hot offensive coordinator candidate, with the Broncos firing OC Joe Lombardi and reportedly wanting to promote Webb, while teams including the Ravens and Giants have requested OC interviews (the Eagles had just filled their OC role). Webb could benefit from another year under Sean Payton, but a move back to Denver isn’t guaranteed as other teams may offer play‑calling opportunities; the situation is expected to unfold in the coming days after the Super Bowl.

Broncos Shake Up Coaching Staff, Dismiss Lombardi, Colbert and Lynch

Denver Broncos fire offensive coordinator Joe Lombardi and two positional coaches, Keary Colbert (WRs) and Addison Lynch (CBs), in a staff overhaul led by Sean Payton. Lombardi’s departure could clear the way for quarterbacks coach Davis Webb, who is also a potential candidate for future jobs; Denver will still need to interview two minority candidates to satisfy the Rooney Rule. Colbert’s receivers were among the league’s leading culprits in drops, while Lynch had recently been promoted to CBs coach.
