Denver Broncos preseason developments

Overview

During the NFL preseason, the Denver Broncos have managed various roster and injury developments. Early in the preseason, head coach Sean Payton made comments regarding Atlanta Falcons fans during a game. On the roster, the team addressed a center position injury crisis caused by Michael Deiter’s season-ending quad injury by signing veteran Lecitus Smith to provide depth.

As the preseason progressed, the team received positive news regarding cornerback Riley Moss, whose rib injury was described by Payton as ‘nothing serious’. However, the Broncos faced ongoing challenges with their special teams, specifically regarding kickoff coverage and allowing significant yardage on kick returns during matchups against the Falcons and the Green Bay Packers.
