Who are the Broncos’ free agents in 2024?
The Denver Broncos are heading into the offseason with what might be their most challenging roster and salary cap situation in recent memory. They are still not a playoff-caliber team as is evident by an eighth straight playoff-less season, but they are also about to face significant cap issues with their impending decision to move on from quarterback Russell Wilson just two years after signing him to a mega $250 million deal.
Heading into 2024 free agency, the Broncos have 17 total free agents. 14 of them are unrestricted and three are restricted. A healthy number of every down starters are among those unrestricted free agents too.

This list has a lot of age to it and the Broncos are one of the older teams in the NFL, so we might see a shift to a much younger roster in Denver in 2024. In fact, the salary cap likely dictates that move. Of the ‘over 30’ crowd on this list, I would guess that kicker Wil Lutz and maybe running back Dwayne Washington return on cap-friendly deals.
The only name on this list that I really hope to see Denver bring back next year would be safety P.J. Locke. In all honesty, the Broncos are not losing any players here who I would consider an elite tier starter. I like a lot of these guys, but Denver can probably find sufficient replacements and only suffer marginal decline in performance on the field there.
These are all tough decisions that the Broncos will have to make when they get out from under Wilson’s contract. General Manager George Paton straight out said that the ramifications of such a move would take Denver out of any first wave free agents this season.
“We’ll have flexibility either way to do what we need to do,” Paton said this week. “We won’t be in on the first wave of free agency like we were last year. You can’t do that every year. We’ll be very strategic and very specific on what positions and what players we try to sign. Obviously, we have to hit on the draft. We’re picking high, and we have six picks. We could have more. You know we like picks. We’ll go from there.”
The reason for that is how the salary cap will set Denver back once Wilson is released. They are already $20 million over the cap and will need to start making additional roster moves and/or contract reworks to get back under that number. Wilson’s cap hit looks like it will slam them from 2024-2026 in dead money hits. The cap relief will finally start coming along in 2026 and then massively beginning in 2027. This likely means some additional aging veterans will move on too. Though I could see a number of players restructuring like Garett Bolles and Tim Patrick.

We do not allow any of the following:
- Personal attacks: This includes name-calling, insults, threats, hurtful comments about someone’s appearance, voice, or style, and all other forms of attacks. We want our communities to be welcoming and fun. Personal attacks are the opposite of that.

- Spam: We have a zero-tolerance policy on spam, which includes sharing links to illegal game streams or downloads. Spam will be deleted and spammers may be banned, blocked, or removed.

Louisiana child rape suspect arrested in Denver
DENVER (KKTV) – A man out of Louisiana suspected of child rape is now in custody in Colorado.
The U.S. Marshals Fugitive Task Force said they arrested 43-year-old James Connolly Tuesday morning in Denver.
The U.S. Marshals Service said Connolly was wanted by West Baton Rouge Parish deputies for first-degree rape of a child under 13 years old.
According to the U.S. Marshals, a full-scale investigation into the allegation was launched, and probable cause was found to file charges.
After an arrest warrant was issued on August 12, they said Connolly was likely aware of the warrant and had fled the state.
On Monday, officials reportedly received information that he could be in Denver. The next day, the U.S. Marshals Service said the Colorado Violent Offender Task Force found Connolly working maintenance for a company near I-270 and York Street in Denver under the name “Alli” with a changed physical appearance.
Officials said Connolly was then positively identified and taken into custody.
“The success of this arrest represents a culmination of extensive cooperative investigative efforts between the U.S. Marshals in Baton Rouge, U.S. Marshals Colorado Violent Offender Task Force – Denver, West Baton Rouge Sheriff’s Office, Livingston Parish Sheriff’s Office, Colorado Bureau of Investigation, Douglas County Sheriff’s Office, Englewood Police Department, and Colorado Department of Corrections,” the U.S. Marshals Service said in a release.
He’s currently in the Adams County Jail pending extradition back to Louisiana.
