Broncos face decision on extensions for Moss and McMillian

Summary

The Denver Broncos are evaluating their options regarding cornerbacks Riley Moss and Ja’Quan McMillian, both of whom are set to hit free agency after the 2026 season. With limited salary cap space of just over $25 million, the team must prioritize one player as they prepare for the future. Moss has been a critical part of the secondary, set to start his fourth season, while McMillian’s contributions as a nickel cornerback have earned him recognition for clutch plays. The Broncos have a first-round pick waiting in the wings, adding to the complexity of their decision. The upcoming season will be pivotal in determining which player may receive an extension.
