Broncos cap preseason with a 34-6 win as Ehlinger excels and roster decisions loom

Denver finished the preseason with a 34-6 win over Minnesota, resting most starters while backups shined. Cody Schrader piled up 132 yards from scrimmage with a TD, Sam Ehlinger impressed (15-of-20, 233 yards, 3 TDs) to bolster his QB case, and Justin Joly added an 88-yard TD. Pat Bryant and Jonah Coleman did not play, signaling they’ve locked in roles (WR3 and a developing RB role). Jaleel McLaughlin’s roster bid took a hit as Badie started, while JL Skinner, Karene Reid, Adam Prentice, Nate Adkins, and Kolbe Katsis looked like solid roster candidates (though Katsis’ status remains uncertain). Jonathon Cooper’s situation hangs over the team with potential legal issues affecting availability. Broncos now shift focus to Kansas City.

Stidham Shines as Broncos Dominate Falcons in 27-7 Preseason Opener

Denver rolled to a 27-7 preseason win over Atlanta, with Jarrett Stidham driving the second-team offense to solid production and Sam Ehlinger showing flashes but not enough consistency. Rookie Jonah Coleman impressed at running back, Riley Moss and Jahdae Barron delivered in the secondary (Barron returning a pick-six), while special-teams hiccups — including a low snap by rookie long snapper Luke Basso — raised concerns. Davis Webb looked effective as offensive coordinator, emphasizing tempo and a stronger run game. On the depth chart, players like McLaughlin and Prentice contributed, but turnover risk and roster battles at several spots remain focal points for Broncos camp evaluations.
