Broncos hot takes ahead of training camp 2026

Denver Post beat reporters Parker Gabriel and Luca Evans check in from the middle of a summer heat wave to deliver their hottest Broncos takes ahead of training camp's start later this month. It's list season around the NFL, there's not a ton going on before teams report for camp, so why not add some spice? Could the Broncos trade a starter before camp ends? Are they sure-fire locks for the playoffs? Could Sean Payton, who just got a new five-year contract last month, find himself contemplating retirement at the end of this year? We don't know any of that for sure, but we're talking about it today on the latest edition of the 1st & Orange Podcast.
