15 Broncos players who could play for other teams in Week 1

Samaje Perine headlines this list of Broncos players who could end up playing for other teams in Week 1.

The Denver Broncos are set to play their final preseason game on Sunday, then they will have to make 38 roster moves to get down to a 53-man roster by Tuesday afternoon. Some players the Broncos cut could be picked up by other clubs, and Denver might attempt to make a trade or two as well.

Broncos coach Sean Payton has emphasized this summer that players aren’t just competing with players on Denver’s roster — they’re competing with players at their position across the league.

“You’re competing with 31 other teams at that [position],” Payton said earlier this month. “So it’s important that they are focused really on their job and what they’re doing. … They’re competing with all those players at their position around the league.”

So, which players on the Broncos’ roster could end up playing for other clubs in 2024? Here’s a quick list of players we could see landing elsewhere.

1. QB Jarrett Stidham
2. QB Zach Wilson
3. WR Brandon Johnson
4. WR Jalen Virgil
5. WR Lil’Jordan Humphrey
6. RB Samaje Perine
7. RB Blake Watson
8. C Sam Mustipher
9. DL Angelo Blackson
10. DL Matt Henningsen
11. OLB Thomas Incoom
12. ILB Levelle Bailey
13. CB Damarri Mathis
14. P Riley Dixon
15. P Trenton Gill
