The Drive | Hour 3 | 08.20.25

In hour 3 of The Drive, Zach and Phil break down the Broncos wide receiver room. We hear from Sean Payton and how he plans to use multiple guys in multiple roles throughout the season at wide out. The guys debate how the target share will be distributed in 2025 for the wide receivers. How do the guys feel about Devaughn Vele being mentioned as a trade candidate with a packed wide receiver room? We look around the league at former Broncos and how they have been doing in preseason, free agency, and other football leagues.  Zach throws out the idea of the Broncos bringing in Anthony Richardson to be Sean Payton’s next quarterback reclamation project. Is Richardson a “QB rehab” away from competing for a starting job in the NFL?
