Sean Payton says Broncos are close to contract agreement with Courtland Sutton
Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton said this offseason that he was optimistic that talks with the team would result in a new contract and it looks like an agreement may be imminent. Head coach Sean Payton told reporters at a Monday press conference that the Broncos and Sutton are close to reaching a deal. Sutton has been practicing in camp, but has not been doing team drills as the two sides try to hammer out a contract. Sutton is currently set to make $14.1 million in the final year of a four-year contract extension he signed in 2021. Sutton had a career-best 81 catches last season and turned them into 1,081 yards and eight touchdowns to help the Broncos get to the playoffs for the first time since Super Bowl 50.

Evan Engram: It was easy being first in building with Jaguars, it's tough with Broncos
Evan Engram is early in his first season with the Broncos, but the tight end has already noticed one significant difference from his time with the Jaguars. Engram thrived on the field for most of his time in Jacksonville and left the Jaguars with 234 catches in 43 games, but he made it sound like he's found a better cultural fit for himself in Denver. Engram said that 'the way that this team connects, the way they push each other' has been his favorite thing about being with the Broncos and illustrated how that connection manifests itself at a training camp press conference. 'I tell people, all my family, it's hard to be the first one in the building,' Engram said, via DNVR Broncos. 'I'm used to being the first one. In Jacksonville, I was always the first one. It was really easy. Here, it's kind of tough. A lot of guys doing it at the highest level. It's just a contagious environment. We all want to get better, and we all have high standards that we all want to achieve together.' The Broncos took a significant step forward in head coach Sean Payton's second season by going from 8-9 to making the playoffs for the first time since winning Super Bowl 50. They lost to Buffalo in their first playoff game, but the commitment that Engram has noticed could help push them even further up the AFC ladder in 2025.

The excitement that comes from driving a vehicle is experienced by the person operating it. But the thrill that comes from driving a luxurious car? That is only known to the ones who own it. Three NFL wide receivers, namely Antonio Brown, Brandon Aiyuk, and Tyreek Hill, own luxurious cars–cars that alter the entire sphere of comfort and automobile. Let's have a sneak peek into their world of lush horseless carriages.

Sean Payton hoping Broncos are 'further along' than this point last year
When Sean Payton joined the Denver Broncos in 2023, the team was coming off a 5-12 season and hadn't been back to the playoffs since winning Super Bowl 50 following the 2015 season. Payton helped the unit improve to 8-9 in his first season, and they jumped to 10-7 in Year 2, reaching the postseason for the first time in nearly a decade. The club made obvious improvement in each of Patyon's first two seasons, and expectations are now heightened going into Year 3. Last month, Payton was asked where the team stands now compared to a year ago. 'That's hard to answer," Payton said on June 13. "You hope that we're further along because we played a lot of young players a year ago. Ninety-one million dead cap is two-thirds of an operating budget. So, a lot of young players got a chance to play. So, you hope quite naturally that those guys are further along.' Denver's list of rookies and young players who got extensive playing time last fall included quarterback Bo Nix, who started all 17 games and finished the season as a contender for the Rookie of the Year award. Nix and all of his young teammates now have a full year of experience as pros, which should help them take another step forward in 2025. Payton wouldn't directly say it, but it seems fair to assume the Broncos are in a better place now than they were at this point last summer, and fans should expect yet another season of improvement from Payton's squad.

Peyton Manning's new Denver sports team picks name, unveils amazing logo
Our crest tells a story of our city, our identity, and our to see how it all comes together. ✨ Professional women's soccer is coming to Denver. With Peyton Manning on board as a minority owner, the NWSL is set to expand to Colorado ahead of the 2026 season. The club announced Tuesday that they have picked the name Denver Summit FC, a fitting title for the team set to play a mile high above sea level, not far from the Rocky Mountains. Summit beat out five other contenders in the naming process: Denver Peak FC, Colorado 14ers FC, Denver Elevate FC, Denver FC and Denver Gold FC. Denver Summit was the clear winner in a fan vote. The expansion franchise also unveiled its logo and branding on Tuesday: In separate posts, Denver Summit shared a nod to the Mile High City, and they released an (alternate?) "D" logo that will probably be appreciated by Denver Broncos fans: Peyton Manning's NWSL team has been named Denver Summit. Great branding: Manning joined the Summit's ownership group last month. 'It's a real honor to be part of something so meaningful to the Colorado community,' Manning said in June. 'I'm proud to support the growth of women's sports and excited to help build a club that our city and our state can rally behind.' Manning, who won Super Bowl 50 with the Broncos in 2015, still lives in the Denver area. His younger brother, Eli Manning, is a part-owner of Gotham FC, the NWSL's New York team. You can count on the league leaning into that brotherly rivalry when Denver and Gotham FC face off next year. Denver Summit will play at a temporary stadium in Centennial over the next two years while a stadium is built downtown. The upcoming 14,500-seat stadium is scheduled to open in Denver ahead of the 2028 season. Social: Follow Broncos Wire on Facebook and Twitter/X! Did you know: These 25 celebrities are Broncos fans.
