Episode Description

On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Cecil Lammey digs into one of the most intriguing storylines of rookie minicamp: are the Broncos quietly auditioning quarterbacks this weekend. Denver is bringing in Nathan Peterman for a tryout — a veteran who knows systems, protections, and can run a practice field — but the real buzz comes from EJ Warner, the son of Hall of Famer Kurt Warner.

Warner was just at Chiefs rookie minicamp last week, and now he gets a shot to impress in Denver. He’s smart, tough, experienced, and has logged a ton of college reps. The Broncos need a camp arm, but they also need someone who can help stabilize the room while Bo Nix recovers from ankle surgery. This weekend could determine whether Warner earns a longer look.

With Nix sidelined and Jarrett Stidham the only healthy veteran, the Broncos are evaluating every option — and this minicamp suddenly has real stakes for the QB depth chart.

🔥 In this episode:

  • Why the Broncos are bringing in Nathan Peterman for a tryout

  • What EJ Warner can show after visiting the Chiefs last week

  • How Bo Nix’s injury timeline impacts the QB room

  • Whether Denver is looking for a true No. 3 or just a camp arm

  • What this weekend means for the Broncos’ offseason plan at quarterback

A rookie minicamp with real quarterback implications — and OBT is all over it.
