#Broncos practice is wrapped. Media was present.

J.K. Dobbins not there today, he’s hosting kids’ football camp in New Mexico put on by agency LAA + agent Zac Hiller. Jonah Coleman also not present for graduation at Washington, Brandon Jones not here either (just had a baby!)

Good sign: Bo Nix was once again out at practice with no brace or boot on his ankle.

While he did not practice, he was helping in the drills and right in the middle of the action.

Did see him jog, which was encouraging.

Sean Payton said Bo Nix did some walkthrough stuff with the Broncos this morning and he still expects to see him on the field in some fashion during next week’s minicamp.

Sean Payton said Bo Nix will be “completely clean mobility wise” when he gets back into action.

Jeremy Crawshaw was hitting punts 70+ yards in the air. Consistently. Insane.

The way Payton is talking about Ja’Quan McMillan, I don’t see them letting him walk via free agency 👀

Sean Payton said Ja’Quan McMillian is “absolutely” a player the #Broncos want around long term.

“He has everything you’re looking for.”

Sean Payton said the Broncos’ new facility looks “fantastic.”

Team is expected to move into it in a week.

Sean Payton expects there to be a number of his assistants to get future head coach chances, including Darren Rizzi.

Sean Payton said he’s “quite sure” Vance Joseph will get another shot to be a head coach

The Broncos have wrapped up their second open practice of OTAs.

UDFA WR Dane Key had a nice day. Young front seven pieces Tyler Onyedim and Que Robinson also had some flash plays.

— Nick Kosmider (@NickKosmider) June 11, 2026

Que Robinson looked like a future starter for the Broncos when he played last year, per Vance Joseph.

Que has impressed the staff.

Davis Webb makes clear: “This is a Sean Payton-coached football team. This is a Sean Payton offensive philosophy.”

— Luca Evans (@bylucaevans) June 11, 2026

New Broncos OC Davis Webb:

“I’m blessed to be here with a Gold Jacket head coach.”

He spoke at length about how he’ll rely on HC Sean Payton as he enters his first season as a play-caller. Talked about how there’s nobody better to have as a resource.

Davis Webb compared #Broncos trading for Waddle in Bo Nix’s Year 3 to Bills trading for Stefon Diggs in Josh Allen’s Year 3.

“There’s some similarities of what’s started to happen here.”

On Waddle: “He is a blessing to be around. He’s a multiplier, he’s a thermostat.” pic.twitter.com/M6tAsIAYHE
