Episode Description

Our Orange & Blue Today position previews continue — this time with a deep dive into the Broncos safeties, a group with star power up top and real questions behind the starters. Talanoa Hufanga was outstanding last season, flying around the field and setting the tone. But dropped interceptions were a problem — so can he turn those near‑misses into game‑changing turnovers in 2026. If he cleans that up, he becomes one of the league’s most dangerous ballhawks. Brandon Jones enters a contract year, and history says players in his situation often explode. Does he ball out of control and earn a new deal. His versatility and physicality make him a perfect fit for Vance Joseph’s turnover‑focused defense. Behind them, things get interesting. With PJ Locke gone, Denver must find out whether JL Skinner or Devon Key can provide starting‑quality play — the kind Locke delivered when called upon. Training camp and preseason will determine whether the Broncos have hidden gems… or a depth concern. 🔥 In this episode: Why Hufanga is primed for more interceptions in 2026 How Brandon Jones’ contract year could fuel a breakout Whether JL Skinner or Devon Key can replace PJ Locke’s reliability If safety depth is a real concern entering camp How the safety room fits into Vance Joseph’s turnover‑driven identity Drop your take — is Denver’s safety depth quietly strong, or a real question mark heading into camp.
