Todd Davis returns to Broncos as a defensive quality control coach
One day after parting ways with a linebacker-turned-coach, the Denver Broncos are hiring another former linebacker as a coach.
The Broncos are hiring Todd Davis as a defensive quality control coach, Zac Stevens of DNVR Sports first reported on Thursday. Davis, who has worked for DNVR as a commentator since 2023, was one of Denver's coaching interns at training camp last summer.
Davis, 32, is now leaving DNVR for a full-time DQC position on Sean Payton's staff, working under defensive coordinator Vance Joseph. Davis spent time playing under Payton with the New Orleans Saints in 2014 before later landing with the Broncos.

He was a special teams player and rotational linebacker when the team won Super Bowl 50 following the 2015 season.
Davis spent time with the Minnesota Vikings (2020) and New York Giants (2021) at the end of his career before hanging up his cleats. He now returns to the Broncos, this time as a coach.

Draymond Green Makes Kevin Durant Admission About Lakers-Luka Doncic Trade
Draymond Green Makes Kevin Durant Admission About Lakers-Luka Doncic Trade originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The blockbuster trade that sent Luka Doncic to the Lakers and brought Anthony Davis to the Mavericks is still echoing through NBA circles, even as we move into the middle of June. Advertisement Though the deal was finalized back in February, the shockwaves intensified when Dallas landed the top pick in the 2025 NBA Draft. The complete picture of the trade's impact is still unfolding, but conversations around the league haven't stopped. Draymond Green recently appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live! and shared his first reaction to the trade, giving fans an inside look at the chaotic moment it all went down. ClutchPoints shared the clip, captioned: "Draymond Green thought the Warriors traded for Kevin Durant when it was actually Luka going to the Lakers." Kimmel kicked off the exchange by asking: 'When the Mavs traded Luka to the Lakers, what went through your head?' Advertisement Green's response didn't disappoint: 'I couldn't believe it. I thought Shams was hacked. When it first happened, we were at the Warriors' charity poker tournament. I had just seen Joe Lacob 10 minutes earlier. Joe goes, 'Draymond, I think we're gonna get Kevin Durant. It's happening, we're gonna get Kevin Durant.' He walks off, then runs back two minutes later like, 'Draymond, Draymond, I wasn't supposed to say anything. Don't tell anybody.' I said, 'I got you, Joe. I won't say anything.' Green continued: 'We're still at the tournament, and Steph goes, 'Draymond, you see the trade?' I go, 'It happened!' Steph asks, 'Wait, who?' And I said, 'Oh, never mind.'' Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green (23)Credit: Jesse Johnson-Imagn Images While the Warriors didn't land Durant in a reunion, they did pull off a major move by acquiring Jimmy Butler from the Miami Heat. The deal helped Golden State make it to the second round of the playoffs before falling in five games to the Timberwolves. Advertisement Draymond Green played in 68 regular-season games, averaging 9 points and 6.1 rebounds. He has been with the Warriors since entering the league in 2012. Even months after the trade, the Doncic-Davis blockbuster is still the talk of the league, especially with the draft and free agency on the horizon.

Veteran linebacker trying out for Broncos at mandatory minicamp
Veteran linebacker trying out for Broncos at mandatory minicamp The list of seven players trying out for the Denver Broncos at mandatory minicamp this week includes Austin Ekeler's younger brother, an Australian tight end and a veteran inside linebacker. The linebacker is Milo Eifler, a 27-year-old defender who played college football at Washington and Illinois. He entered the league as an undrafted free agent with the New York Jets in 2021. Eifler has spent time with five NFL teams since then, most recently spending part of the 2024 season with the Arizona Cardinals. Eifler (6-1, 228 pounds) appeared in 13 games with the Washington Football Team/Commanders from 2021-2022, totaling four tackles on defense. He also played 259 snaps on special teams while playing in D.C. Eifler has appeared in 17 regular season games in his career, but he has never started. The Broncos are presumably giving him a look as a potential special teams contributor. Minicamp will wrap up on Thursday. Related: These 25 celebrities are Broncos fans.

International player trying out at Broncos mandatory minicamp
International player trying out at Broncos mandatory minicamp The Denver Broncos are taking a look at another Australian-born player. Among the seven players trying out at mandatory minicamp this week is Patrick Murtagh, a 25-year-old tight end who was a decathlete growing up before later switching to Australian rules football. He was rostered by the Gold Coast Football Club from 2020-2022 before joining the NFL's international player pathway program in 2023. Murtagh had a brief stint with the Detroit Lions early in 2023 that was cut short by a medical issue. He then went to training camp with the Jacksonville Jaguars in 2024, spending the regular season on injured reserve. The Jags waived the tight end this spring. The Broncos (and all 32 NFL teams) are allowed to carry an extra international player on the practice squad during the regular season. So if Denver signs a player like Murtagh and he ends up on the practice squad, he would not count against the 16-player limit. Teams also get an extra active roster spot for an international player during the offseason. Right now, Australian punter Jeremy Crawshaw is the team's designated international player, and he does not count against the 90-man offseason roster limit.
