Team news: Denver Broncos

Even without the pads on, it's clear second-round pick Javonte Williams has the talent to be a dynamic player for Denver's offense.

His practice on Monday was not unlike others throughout the first five days of training camp, as he made an impact both on the ground and in the passing game. Williams said he worked on his receiving abilities this offseason, citing the need to be an all-around back.

HC Vic Fangio said, "He's showing his versatility. He can run a route as well as carry the ball. We think he can block, although that hasn't been tested yet to the nth degree. We like him. He's done everything that we expected up to this point." So far, most, not all, seem to agree that Gordon remains the RB1, at least for now. But the Broncos traded up to get Williams so it may only be a matter of time. But Gordon had 1,144 total yards and 4.7 YPC, so it may not be that easy for Williams to pass him.

Vic Fangio on QB battle: "Still even-steven, there's been no separation. And we're going to keep the rotation these next 3 days the same as it's been."

Klis added to his tweet that Bridgewater had the better practice today. He completed a higher percentage than Lock and had more 20+yard completions, highlighted by first-rep deep TD to Diontae Spencer.

The #Panthers are trading QB Teddy Bridgewater to the #Broncos for a sixth-round draft pick, per source.

The Broncos have been in the QB mix most of this offseason and it looks like they'll have veteran Teddy Bridgewater in town in 2021. Drew Lock hasn't been too impressive through 18 games, and the former Panther will inherit some solid talent in Denver with Courtland Sutton Jerry Jeudy and Noah Fant.

Broncos have reached agreement with former Viking RB Mike Boone, per source.

Mike Boone spent three seasons with Denver's GM George Paton in Minnesota. He'll provide insurance behind Melvin Gordon if Philip Lindsay signs elsewhere, and even if Lindsay stays, Boone could be worth a late-round stab in some fantasy formats.

Broncos WR K.J. Hamler will not play Sunday against the Las Vegas Raiders, according to Broncos head coach Vic Fangio.

Tough end to Hamler's rookie season, but the rookie showed promising flashes despite injuries and inconsistent QB play.

Vic Fangio said that Jerry Jeudy has “proven he has good hands” over the course of the season and that Sunday’s game can spur him to do more on the mental side to avoid dropping passes in the future.

“Yes, I do think he’s got the right make-up,” Fangio said, via Ryan O’Halloran of the Denver Post. “When I [said] it’s a ‘defining moment,’ sometimes a guy drops a pass here and there, but he had a few of them and I think he’ll learn a lot from that and that the focus needs to be on catching the ball before anything else happens, regardless of whether you’re in traffic or not. I think he’ll come out a better receiver for this.”

Jeudy called his five drops in Sunday’s loss to the Chargers “unacceptable” and Fangio said that the game “could be a defining moment” in the first-round pick’s career. But as you can see above, he altered his comments a bit and he and the team still stands behind him. As the story added, with only one game left this season, it likely won't be enough time to get a real feel for Jeudy going into next season.
