Broncos free agency updates going into Day 1
Broncos free agency updates going into Day 1
The NFL's free agency negotiating window opens today and the Denver Broncos have already been active.
Teams cannot begin negotiating with pending free agents from other clubs until 10 a.m. MT, but they are allowed to give extensions to in-house free agents before then. The Broncos did just that with a trio of players on Sunday night.
Denver gave three-year contracts to defensive lineman D.J. Jones and long snapper Mitchell Fraboni and a two-year deal to backup quarterback Jarrett Stidham. More moves are on the way.
The Broncos missed out on two notable linebackers on Sunday when Nick Bolton and Jamien Sherwood re-signed with the Kansas City Chiefs and New York Jets, respectively. Denver apparently had more interest in Sherwood than Bolton, according to KUSA-TV's Mike Klis.
Two notable ILBs still available are Robert Spillane and Dre Greenlaw, and Klis believes the team will have more interest in Spillane due to Greenlaw's injury history.
Meanwhile, Klis notes the Broncos are also expected to add a tight end tight end (Juwan Johnson is a name to watch) and a safety (here's a list of candidates). Before the three in-house deals, Denver had about $40.5 million in available salary cap space.
Stay tuned. We will track all of the team's upcoming moves on Broncos Wire.

Giants rally again to beat lowly Rockies 10-7 for 7th straight win
DENVER — Mike Yastrzemski's two-run double in the eighth inning keyed another San Francisco rally, and the Giants beat the Colorado Rockies 10-7 on Wednesday night for their seventh straight victory. Willy Adames homered and drove in three early runs for the Giants, but they trailed 6-3 entering the eighth before coming back against reliever Tyler Kinley (0-3). Adames, Heliot Ramos and Dominic Smith singled to load the bases with one out, and Casey Schmitt walked to bring in a run. Yastrzemski then lined a double off the right-center wall to tie it. Tyler Fitzgerald laid down a bunt against Zach Agnos, and Schmitt slid around the tag of catcher Hunter Goodman with the go-ahead run. Schmitt was initially ruled out but the call was overturned following a replay review. San Francisco added three insurance runs in the ninth on Wilmer Flores' sacrifice fly, and RBI singles by Schmitt and Yastrzemski. Goodman hit his 11th homer in the bottom half and the Rockies had two runners on when Orlando Arcia grounded back to closer Camilo Doval for the final out. Tristan Beck (1-0) tossed three innings of relief for the win. ___ AP MLB:

Fans Worried for Travis Hunter After New Video Surfaces
Travis Hunter has already hit the practice field for the Jacksonville Jaguars after being selected No. 2 overall in the 2025 NFL Draft. He participated in rookie minicamp from May 9–11 and began OTA offseason workouts with the team on Monday. Hunter, a two-way player, entered the draft nearly at the top of draft boards because of his ability to play both sides of the ball at the highest level. The former Colorado Buffaloes standout was selected seven picks ahead of the first true wide receiver, Tetairoa McMillan, who went to the Carolina Panthers. Advertisement On Monday, footage of both Hunter and McMillan was posted side by side, showing their experiences with their new teams so far. Despite not running the same route, McMillan's route looked crisper, and Hunter struggled to come out of his break. Fans who saw the post headed to the replies and shared their worries for Hunter. "Worried about Travis," one wrote. "That was horrible by Travis," a fan said. "Quickly Realizing that The NFL isn't like college. It's good he realizes this now." "One guy is a WR that's played WR his whole career, one guy is an athlete trying to play WR," another wrote. "It's pretty obvious and I swear it's not a knock on Travis. Travis was able to get away with a lot of (expletive) in college bc it's college, that (expletive) won't fly in the league I promise you that." Advertisement "lol but remember they said tmac is not WR1…," added another. "Gotta learn them routes bro bro," said a fan. "It's the jaguars organizations fault. They just turn good players into bad one once drafted," a fan added.
