Jonathon Cooper's trial could overlap with Broncos training camp

Jonathon Cooper's legal case may extend into the Denver Broncos' training camp. After two arrests within a week, his charges are now part of a felony assault case. Originally scheduled for a jury trial on July 22-23, the date has been pushed back, with a disposition hearing set for July 24. If a trial occurs, it could prevent Cooper from participating in the start of camp. Broncos coach Sean Payton emphasized the team's high standards and ongoing evaluation process regarding Cooper's situation. The linebacker was already excused from mandatory minicamp earlier this month following his second arrest.
