    8-31-26 *INTERVIEW* Ryan Edwards of KOA Sports on the Broncos Official 53 Man Roster

    The Broncos are getting real about their roster, and it's not just about the players they've added, but also the ones they've let go. This week, the team made some surprising cuts, including two draft picks who many thought were locks to make the 53-man roster. We're joined by Ryan Edwards, co-host of KOA Sports, to break down the moves and what they mean for the team's chances in the regular season. The Broncos' roster is looking more experienced than ever, with over 90% retention from last year's team. This was by design, as the team aimed to keep the core players who could win a championship. The rookies, however, are the biggest difference-makers, and the team's decision to keep three quarterbacks is also noteworthy. We discuss the reasoning behind these moves and what they say about the team's strategy. One of the biggest surprises was the cut of Justin Jolie, a tight end who many thought would make the roster. Ryan shares his thoughts on why this decision was made and what it means for the team's tight end room. We also touch on the Rams' big news, with Aaron Donald coming back to the team on a one-year deal. If you want to hear more about the Broncos' roster moves and what they mean for the team's chances, tune in to this episode to hear Ryan's expert analysis and insights.
