Broncos ranked No. 2 in NFL power rankings ahead of preseason

The Denver Broncos are ranked second in the NFL power rankings by Josh Kendall of The Atlantic, just behind the Los Angeles Rams. This ranking places Denver ahead of the 2025 AFC champion New England Patriots and the defending Super Bowl champion Seattle Seahawks. The Broncos' new offensive coordinator, Davis Webb, has taken over play-calling duties, which could impact the team's performance. Denver will face the Rams and Seahawks in the first six weeks of the season and the Bills and Patriots in Weeks 16 and 17, with three of those games scheduled for primetime. The regular season begins in September.
