With training camp set to begin this week, Broncos Wire will begin contributing weekly camp updates to Sports Weekly, which we will also share on the site. Here’s the first update ahead of practice beginning Wednesday.
What’s new: What’s not new with the Broncos? A new ownership group led by Walmart heir Rob Walton is set to takeover the club this summer. In addition to new ownership, the team has a new head coach in Nathaniel Hackett (a former Packers offensive coordinator) and a new QB in Russell Wilson. Denver sent three players — TE Noah Fant among them — and five draft picks to Seattle in exchange for Wilson in March. To help replace Fant, the Broncos used a third-round pick to select TE Greg Dulcich in April’s draft.
After trading away OLB Von Miller mid-season in 2021, Denver replaced him this spring by signing ex-Cowboys pass rusher Randy Gregory to a five-year, $70 million contract. Elsewhere on defense, the Broncos let CB Bryce Callahan walk in free agency and they signed ex-49er K’Waun Williams to replace him.
