The free-agent period ahead of the 2026 NFL season is here. The new league year officially starts on Wednesday, March 11, but teams will be able to negotiate with pending free agents starting on Monday.
The Denver Broncos are a team with a wide-open Super Bowl window, looking to add a few pieces to complete a roster capable of getting to and winning the big game next season. After falling just short of reaching that goal this past season, the team is in need of some more resources on the offensive side of the ball.
According to Over the Cap, the team currently has about $34.7 million in available cap space. The Broncos created an additional $10.9 million in cap space late Sunday night when All-Pro guard Quinn Meinerz agreed to a restructured deal.
Part of #Broncos’ mission/wish list today as free agency essentially opens at 10 am (MDT):
*Re-sign ILB Alex Singleton
*Re-sign safety/STer P.J. Locke
*Find a RB (Walker? Etienne? Dobbins?)
