Summary

Kansas City Chiefs brace for a revamped Denver Broncos squad as Jalen Waddle headlines a key offseason addition. Will Waddle’s explosive speed ignite Denver’s offense, or will questions around Bo Nix’s health leave the Broncos searching for answers in Week 1? The conversation breaks down how Waddle might fill the Tyreek Hill-esque role, the evolving roles of Cortland Sutton and Troy Franklin, and Sean Payton’s strategy to lean on a deep six-man running backrotation, featuring J.K. Dobbins and rookie Jonah Coleman. Chris Clark and Ryan Tracy analyze how the Chiefs’ rebuilt defense—anchored by new acquisition Khyiris Tonga—can counter Denver’s ground game, highlighting crucial matchups in the trenches after Denver’s defensive line loss. With both teams managing quarterback comebacks and offensive overhauls, the stage is set for a dynamic AFC West clash. Can Kansas City’s new running game spark early momentum, or will the Broncos’ upgrades deliver an opening-week surprise?

the Broncos. But they made an addition, and I do say an addition, to their roster for 2020.

1:03.2

Because that's pretty much all they did. They're running it back other than one big addition,

1:21.2
