Denver Broncos named best NFL offensive line amid injury concerns at center

Summary

The Denver Broncos have been recognized as the NFL's best offensive line by Pro Football Focus. The unit, which returns all five starters from last season, allowed the second-fewest sacks in the league. Key players include left tackle Garett Bolles and right guard Quinn Meinerz, both of whom earned high grades in pass and run blocking. However, center Luke Wattenberg is dealing with a shoulder injury, raising questions about the team's depth at the position. The Broncos may need to seek additional support at center as the season approaches.
