On Sunday, the Broncos started their league-high eighth quarterback since the 2016 season.

In 96 hours, they can extend their league-high to nine.

The injury bug struck the Broncos and hasn't left.

After losing Von Miller for a majority of the year, if not the entire year, just before the start of the season, Denver lost A.J. Bouye and Phillip Lindsay for multiple weeks during Week 1's game against the Tennessee Titans.

But losing three Pro Bowl players just wasn't enough. On Sunday, Denver lost Pro Bowl receiver Courtland Sutton and Drew Lock as well as many players on the defensive side of the ball.

In 2019, the Broncos averaged 17.6 points per game. However, in the final five games under Lock, they averaged 21.4 points per game.

For 2020, the Broncos can expect another significant jump.

Without Von Miller, it wouldn’t be fair to expect Denver's defense to be the best in the league, as they very well could have been with Von.

But with a defensive mastermind leading a unit that's been upgraded from last year, there's no reason why the expectations shouldn't be higher than what they were last year.

By decision, circumstance and the simple passage of time, the Broncos will take the field Monday night with just one player left from Super Bowl 50: kicker Brandon McManus. That serves as a reminder that this is a new team, untethered to the past.

The Broncos had a three-man competition for the team’s third cornerback spot throughout the majority of training camp.

Two of them are no longer on the roster. Here's why.

Updates on Bradley Chubb and K.J. Hamler and moves with recent draft picks were among the notable items as the Broncos got down to 53 players Saturday.

In terms of Broncos' rookies, the first week of training camp has been dominated by Jerry Jeudy with a side of K.J. Hamler. That comes as no surprise as the two receivers were John Elway's first two picks in April's draft.

On Wednesday, other rookies from Elway's draft class began to make noise, earn praise and make their way up the depth chart.

"I'd love to be able to be here and continue to keep growing and doing the things that I've been doing," Simmons said.

On Tuesday, as veteran players reported for their first COVID-19 test, John Elway and Vic Fangio spoke to the media via Zoom to preview a training camp that will be like nothing anyone has seen before.

While COVID-19 maintains to be the most talked-about topic around the NFL, and world, there were still plenty of other headlines from Tuesday's press conferences.

On offense, the Broncos' expectations "are definitely tempered," John Elway said. "I don't think that we can expect -- with no offseason -- for us to be coming out and hitting on all cylinders.

The guys breakdown the most important headlines from John Elway and Vic Fangio's press conferences, answer listener questions and much more.

In January, Lloyd Cushenberry III became a national champion. In April, the 22-year old became John Elway’s highest-drafted center ever.

Now, he has a chance to add a cherry on top of what has already been a magnificent year by competing for the Denver Broncos’ starting center position.

Numbers reflect reality -- the reality that Mike Shanahan's resume isn't just Ring of Fame-worthy, but deserving of Pro Football Hall of Fame recognition, too.

There’s a whole bunch of money on the table in 2020 for the Broncos’ highest-paid players. A whopping $71.48 million, to be exact.

Signing Melvin Gordon gives the Broncos two Pro-Bowl running backs. But with Phillip Lindsay coming off back-to-back 1,000-yard rushing seasons, what will Gordon’s role be?

Jurrell Casey hasn’t missed a Pro Bowl in the past five seasons. That shouldn’t change in 2020, especially since he’ll be set up for success now more than ever.

The Broncos only gave up a fourth-round pick for A.J. Bouye. But don’t be fooled by the trade. Despite only having to give up a fourth-round pick, Denver has sky-high expectations for their new cornerback.
