Broncos roster review: Cornerback Quinton Newsome
Quinton Newsome is the latest undrafted free-agent cornerback to get his shot with the Denver Broncos.
The three-year starter from the University of Nebraska signed with the Broncos in mid-May. The defensive back likely would have been selected in the NFL Draft if not for a shoulder procedure he underwent this spring.
The Broncos had a top-30 visit with Newsome before the Draft, so there was clear interest from the organization.
Now, Newsome will look to earn his way onto Denver’s roster this season.

Quinton Newsome highlights
How CB Quinton Newsome fits with the Denver Broncos
Newsome was one of the best defensive backs in the last two seasons for the Huskers.
According to Corn Nation, Newsome has experience playing outside and in the slot. He can play press and man coverage, play the ball to break up passes, is not afraid of contact, and is willing to make tackles. All of those are traits that can help Newsome, especially on special teams.
As for the concerns, Corn Nation says that Newsome has average speed and quickness for a cornerback. He also tends to play the receiver instead of the ball, lacks the instincts to read the receiver, and has to react instead. He’s not a quick Twitch mover, which makes him susceptible to getting beat in off-coverage.
The other factor working against Newsome, at least when it comes to making the roster, is the competition the Broncos have at the position. Behind Pat Surtain II, you have 2023 third-round pick Riley Moss, 2022 fourth-round pick Damarri Mathis, rookie Kris Abrams-Draine, likely slot starter Ja’Quan McMillian, veteran Levi Wallace, Art Green, and a host of other back-of-the-roster players.
The most likely scenario for Newsome in 2024 is Denver’s practice squad.
Final thoughts
Given what he brings as an undrafted free-agent cornerback and the competition at the position, Newsome will likely find his way to the Broncos practice squad this season.
If he’s able to crack the main roster, it’ll be because of special teams. Since Newsome isn’t afraid of contact, that works in his favor.
Either way, he’ll be able to get a feel for the NFL, improve in his weakest areas, and strengthen what he does well.
Poll
Do you think Quinton Newsome makes the Broncos practice squad?
Von Miller has made it abundantly clear that he would like to return to the Denver Broncos and finish his career where it started. Miller has made that fact known at every possible opportunity, including a Von’s Vision charity event on Wednesday.
“I would love to bring back those Super Bowl 50 vibes, love to assist, to be the vice president to Bo Nix, to Courtland Sutton,” Miller said. “I’ve been the guy and also I’ve been the vice president as well. I would love to contribute to us getting back to the glory land, to holding up that trophy.”
Miller went on to note that he has lobbied coach Sean Payton to sign him (Payton coached Miller at a flag football tournament earlier this year).
Unfortunately for Miller, it sounds like there are no plans for a potential reunion with his old club. The Denver Post‘s Luca Evans reported that “as of last week,” there have been no talks between the Broncos and Miller’s representatives about a potential contract.
With a crowded outside linebacker room, Denver seems unlikely to re-sign Miller, but the 37-year-old pass rusher said he will “for sure” play in 2026. After totaling nine sacks with the Washington Commanders last fall, Miller will probably be able to find a home as a rotational pass rusher, but it might not be with the Broncos.

Denver Summit FC delays opening of Centennial Stadium, will play next 2 home games at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park
Denver Summit FC will play their next two home games at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park.
Colorado’s first professional women’s soccer team was hoping to be at their new training facility in Centennial by July, but team says recent rain delayed construction, so they need to push back by two weeks.
That means their July 3 and July 12 matches will be at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park in Commerce City.
Summit FC is hopeful to be at their stadium in Centennial for their July 18 game against the Portland Thorns.
Centennial Stadium will ultimately become Summit’s training facility. They’ll play their games there until 2028, when they hope to move into their official home stadium at the Santa Fe Yards at Broadway and I-25. The Santa Fe Yards stadium will have room for more than 14,000 fans.
