Broncos host 4 players for tryouts, including a cornerback

The Broncos brought in three offensive tackles and cornerback Micah Abraham for tryouts on Tuesday.

After bringing in 10 players for workouts on Monday, the Denver Broncos had another round of tryouts on Tuesday.

Cornerback Micah Abraham had a “strong workout” with the Broncos this morning, according to KPRC-TV’s Aaron Wilson. Denver has not signed Abraham, though, and he’s now set to visit the Houston Texans on Wednesday.

Abraham (5-10, 185 pounds) was picked by the Indianapolis Colts in the sixth round of this year’s NFL draft out of Marshall. He made a good impression against the Broncos in Week 2 of preseason with a team-high six tackles and one forced fumble that he recovered and returned 45 yards for a score.

Denver also worked out three offensive tackles, according to the Denver Post‘s Parker Gabriel: Tyler Beach, Anim Dankwah and Matt Nelson. Of those tackles, Nelson is the most notable. He spent four years with the Detroit Lions and has made 14 starts in his career.

The Broncos’ 53-man roster and 17-player practice squad are both full, so if any new players are signed, Denver will need to make room for them.

It’s only an early preview, but Quinyon Mitchell, Kelee Ringo, and Isaiah Rodgers are set to have an intense battle for the cornerback spot opposite Darius Slay.

Don’t look now, but Ross could easily land Philadelphia’s third or fourth wide receiver spot. The speedy former first-round pick took first-team snaps on Wednesday and has been active during two days of practice.

Devin White appears to be the only lock as a starter, while Nakobe Dean and Zack Baun will continue to battle for the inside linebacker job.

The future Hall of Famer appeared at the NovaCare Complex in street clothes for the first time since retiring.

With Landon Dickerson absent and Trevor Keegan injured, Mekhi Becton logged first-team snaps at left guard.

Kellen Moore is installing a new offensive system, and Wednesday presents some frustrations for Jalen Hurts and company.

After nine weeks of offseason workouts and six OTA sessions, the Eagles hit the practice field at the NovaCare Complex for the first three-day, mandatory minicamp since the 2019 season.

A look at the Cowboys’ current five picks and a few ideal prospects to fill current needs. | From @TimLettiero

The Dallas Cowboys find themselves in a groove as they move past the halfway portion of the season. With eyes on taking the division back, head coach Mike McCarthy and company look to finish the home stretch as well as they’ve started it.

Now sitting at 6-3 on the season, Dallas once again has their sights set on double-digit wins and hopefully a more fruitful journey into the playoffs. However, whenever and wherever the season ends, the draft will arrive and give the club a chance to enhance their roster for future seasons.

While players and coaches alike focus on each week as it comes, background work from the likes of VP of Player personnel Will McClay keeps tabs on the upcoming offseason. The Cowboys currently own five picks, and they are slated to receive two more compensatory picks once those are assigned. Here, we’ll look at the birds in hand and which prospects could fit based on projected team needs.
