Broncos lose key defensive players John Franklin-Myers, P.J. Locke, and Dre Greenlaw

The Denver Broncos faced significant departures this offseason, losing defensive lineman John Franklin-Myers to the Tennessee Titans, safety P.J. Locke to the Dallas Cowboys, and linebacker Dre Greenlaw, who was cut and subsequently signed with the San Francisco 49ers. These moves come as the Broncos aim to maintain a strong roster after a successful season that saw them reach the AFC Championship game. Replacing Franklin-Myers on the defensive line will be a priority, while the team’s depth at inside linebacker has also been affected. Various candidates, including draft pick Red Murdock, will compete for roles this summer.
