The NFL’s window for 2023 franchise tags opened on Tuesday. Teams can place a one-year franchise (or transition) tag on one player between Feb. 21 and March 7 ahead of the NFL’s free agency negotiating window that begins on March 13.
For the Denver Broncos, the only logical candidate for a tag this year is defensive lineman Dre’Mont Jones, but even he seems unlikely to get the designation. Tagging Jones as a defensive end would cost the Broncos $19.73 million in 2023 salary cap space.
