Not satisfied, the Broncos signed veteran J.K. Dobbins at the tail end of their offseason training program. Williams is having a career year in Dallas, but the Broncos quickly forgot about their 2021 second-round pick thanks to Dobbins' consistent production out of the gates.

The Broncos tried (and failed) to claim two tight ends off the NFL's waiver wire on Monday. Denver put in claims for Brendan Bates and Ben Sims, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter, but those players were awarded to the Cleveland Browns and Minnesota Vikings, respectively, because those clubs were higher in the waiver order than the Broncos.

“Denver beat Dallas for the seventh straight time Sunday. The last Cowboys team to beat the Broncos was coached by Barry Switzer and got 114 rushing yards from Emmitt Smith. Bo Nix threw four touchdown passes and J.K. Dobbins rushed for 111 to keep the streak alive,” Josh Kendall and Chad Graff write. See the full rankings.

Denver put in waiver claims for both Brendan Bates and Ben Sims on Monday, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports. But with the Broncos carrying a 6-2 record, the club is further down the list in the waiver-claim order. So, Bates was awarded to the Browns, and Sims went to the Vikings.

Not every team in the National Football League can say they have a good, serviceable running back that they feel completely confident in.

While Broncos Country is frustrated over the unexplored routes over the middle of the field, it’s Nix’s misfires on those deep shots in Weeks 1-6, especially ones in Los Angeles, that burned coach Sean Payton’s britches.

The Los Angeles Chargers hit proverbial gold with rookie tight end Oronde Gadsden. Gadsden has morphed into a favorite target of Justin Herbert in a matter of games. Over his last two games, he’s put up 240 yards and two scores.
