Broncos salary cap update after initial waves of NFL free agency
The Broncos still have enough salary cap space left to make a few more additions.
The Denver Broncos made a big splash during the second week of NFL free agency when they acquired wide receiver Jaylen Waddle in a trade with the Miami Dolphins. The Broncos inherited the remaining three years on Waddle's contract, which includes a team-friendly salary cap hit just over $4. 9 million in 2026.
Following that addition, Denver has about $19 million in remaining salary cap space, according to an estimate from OverTheCap. com . That's certainly enough to make a few more signings.
