The Broncos are gearing up for the new season, and the latest OTA developments have fans buzzing. This week, the team's media got their first chance to see the players in action, and there were some notable observations. The Broncos' starting quarterback, Bo Nix, didn't participate, but his absence wasn't entirely unexpected. What's more interesting is the progress he's making, with Sean Payton indicating that he'll be throwing pre-practice passes soon. This is a positive sign, and the team is optimistic about his recovery.

The Broncos are also excited about their new wide receiver, Jaylen Waddle, who's already making a strong impression. He's got the speed and playmaking ability that this offense has been lacking, and it's clear that he's going to be a key player this season. But what about Jahdae Barron, the first-round pick from last year? He's still not seeing much playing time, and some fans are starting to wonder if he's being buried behind the team's established cornerbacks.

The Broncos' situation with Barron is a complex one, and it's not just about his playing time. It's about the opportunity cost of drafting him in the first round, when there were other positions that could have used the pick. Now, the team is hoping that Barron will develop into a key player, but it's unclear if he'll get the chance to prove himself.

Plus Game 2 of the NBA Finals is tonight! The guys preview the matchup and discuss whether the Knicks are in fact a team of destiny.
