Breaking News: After having more dead money than any NFL team, Broncos enter free agency with $40 million of cap room….see more
A year ago, the Broncos released safety Justin Simmons, traded wide receiver Jerry Jeudy and made some other moves just to carve out a modest amount of salary-cap room entering free agency.
The Broncos will head into free agency this week having made no recent moves and with more than $40 million of salary-cap room. Helping the Broncos be in good shape was last year deciding to take a $53 million dead cap for 2024 and a $32 million one for 2025 when they released quarterback Russell Wilson. The other option was to take a $35.4 million hit in 2024 and one for $49.6 million in 2025.
So, what happened when the Broncos led the NFL in 2024 in dead money on the salary cap at $89 million? Under second-year coach Sean Payton, they went 10-7 and made the playoffs for the first time since 2015.
“I thought Sean came in in a very tough spot with the money situation,’’ said Mike Shanahan, the legendary coach who led the Broncos to Super Bowl wins in the 1997 and 1998 seasons. “And I thought they did an unbelievable job to get to the playoffs in the second year.”
