Cam Ward's final preseason start offered a glimpse of why he was the No. 1 overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, as the rookie gave Tennessee Titans fans plenty to be excited about ahead of their Week 1 matchup against the Denver Broncos.

September is almost here as the Denver Broncos finish off the preseason against the New Orleans Saints on Saturday. The preseason finale is about finalizing those final few roster spots, as well as finding out which players teams want to keep around on the practice squad.

Following the Devaughn Vele trade, the Broncos hold five picks in the first four rounds of the 2026 NFL draft.

A lot of roster projections have the Broncos keeping five safeties. Brandon Jones, Talanoa Hufanga, P.J. Locke, and J.L. Skinner are often the top four listed. Those I agree with. The fifth is usually Devon Key.

The Denver Broncos still have a few roster spots to figure out before the preseason finale against the New Orleans Saints. What's more, the Broncos have 16 practice squad spots to fill, and this is the final opportunity for those bottom-of-the-roster players to make a case.

The Manning family's NFL legacy is deep and rich, from patriarch Archie Manning playing 12 years for the New Orleans to his sons, Peyton and Eli, combining to collect five league MVP awards, three Super Bowl MVP nods and four Super Bowl rings.

Clubs can then place claims on players waived by other teams, and waiver claims will be awarded on Wednesday, Aug. 27. After the waiver wire claims go through at 10 a.m. MT (noon ET), teams can build 16-player practice squads (or 17-player squads if they include an international player).

ESPN's Field Yates predicts the Denver Broncos will select Arizona State WR Jordyn Tyson in the first round of the 2026 NFL draft.
