A recent shooting incident involving former Broncos player Josh Reynolds occurred last year during a chase across Denver, leading to a detailed investigation by the Denver District Attorney's Office. It has been confirmed that the attack was not due to Reynolds' NFL career, but rather a result of mistaken identity. Reynolds, now with the New York Jets, along with two friends, were victims of a premeditated assault that involved multiple assailants across a ten-mile pursuit.

On October 18, Reynolds and his friends left a strip club at 2:45 AM and were subsequently pursued in multiple vehicles, resulting in a barrage of gunfire at their vehicle. Despite being shot, Reynolds expressed relief that they survived, emphasizing the lack of clarity surrounding the motives behind the attack. At least five individuals have been arrested, facing serious charges, while the investigation continues to identify additional suspects.
