The Broncos are hopeful Dre Greenlaw will make the trip to SF this week. Meanwhile, Alex Singleton would be playing if it was a playoff situation.

In an alarming sight for an already-banged-up inside linebacker room, Dre Greenlaw pulled up with a grimace after covering J.K. Dobbins in team drills.

The Denver Broncos believe linebacker Dre Greenlaw's latest injury isn't serious. Greenlaw pulled up while covering running back J.K.

Denver's first player to land on injured reserve this summer is undrafted outside linebacker Johnny Walker, who will go on season-ending IR with a lower body injury. To fill Walker's former spot on the active roster, the Broncos signed UFL pass rusher Garrett Nelson.

The Broncos went to the playoffs for the first time in a decade last season and head coach Sean Payton thinks they can do even more in 2025.

Sean Payton is not backing down from championship expectations. The Broncos coach made that much clear in a recent interview with Yahoo Sports. “The short-term goal is winning the division,” Payton told senior reporter Charles Robinson.

Bailey might end up being the big winner as he has stepped up with Singleton sidelined. And while Payton does not seem alarmed about the state of the LB room, the team did sign veteran Garret Wallow to shore up their depth. If all goes well -- knock on wood, as Payton said -- Greenlaw and Singleton will be ready for Week 1.
