The Broncos return most of the defensive front that helped fuel a team record of 63 sacks in 2024, but intriguing depth battles remain.

The Denver Broncos have signed first-round pick Jahdae Barron to a 4-year, $18M rookie deal ahead of training camp.

The Broncos still play in a tough division led by the reigning AFC champs. Nix has to avoid the sophomore slump that has hit plenty of other quarterbacks. The defense has to keep its massive gains — it went from being ranked 30th in DVOA in 2023 to fourth last season — and we often see defenses that grow that much take a step back.

Bleacher Report's Matt Holder called Denver Broncos rookie cornerback Jahdae Barron "Too Good" to keep off field in 2025.

The veteran tight end had a busy offseason with a honeymoon in Europe, Bo Nix's passing camp in Idaho and welcoming Evan Engram to Denver's position room.

Each year, we see a handful of players have breakout performances during training camp and turn that into a bigger role with the team during the season. Last year, we saw rookie quarterback Bo Nix blossom right in front of our eyes and win the starting quarterback job and help lead the Broncos back to the postseason.

The NFL officially has its first training camp holdout of 2025 and there could be quite a few more coming over the next few days. Tre Harris of the Los Angeles Chargers became the first player to hold out this year when he didn't report with the rest of the Chargers' rookies on Saturday.
