Broncos Roster Battle Before Final Game | Denver Broncos News

The Broncos face tough roster decisions as they gear up for their final preseason game, balancing depth with space across key positions. Quarterback depth is a strategic puzzle—keeping a third QB on the 53-man roster locks him away from other teams, but he rarely plays, making practice squad placement more sensible for underperforming options like Sam Ehlinger. Running back decisions hinge on injury risk; while a fourth RB offers insurance, a fullback can cover that role, and inactive backups are costly luxury. At wide receiver and tight end, the battle’s tight: six receivers could help special teams, but tight ends like Nate Adkins and Justin Joly offer dual value, pushing the team toward keeping four tight ends. On defense, the D-line needs seven to rotate and contribute on special teams, but corners and safeties force hard trade-offs—keeping an extra safety may mean cutting a cornerback, and vice versa. The final preseason game will be pivotal in sorting out these critical defensive backfield choices. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
