Denver leans on inside linebacker depth for Week 1, calling up Levelle Bailey, Jordan Turner, and Garret Wallow from the practice squad to backstop possible injuries to Alex Singleton and Dre Greenlaw’s return. The club plans to manage pitch counts and rotate younger players as a prudent Week 1 approach, with up to two practice squad elevations possible for game day against the Titans at Empower Field. Expect Adam Prentice to support those elevations as the team weighs veteran rehab with fresh legs in a season opener.

Injury management and roster flexibility drive Denver’s Week 1 strategy. Singleton and Greenlaw are monitored closely as Denver weighs smart usage, while the practice squad trio provides insurance and potential breakout depth. The Titans visit Mile High on Sept. 7, and the Broncos will test how their LB depth handles a fast, physical Week 1 test while preserving health for a longer playoff push.
