2026 Broncos Training Camp: Day 6 Live Updates
Welcome to Day 6 of Denver Broncos training camp.
After a third-straight padded practice on Wednesday, the Broncos defense has shown it is already nearing regular season form. They dominated the session from start to finish. The injury scares are also piling up, but so far none have been the long-term bad kind. That luck needs to hold up after seeing teams like the San Francisco 49ers pile up those bad kinds of injuries we definitely don’t ever want to see. We’ll see if the pads are on again today or if Sean Payton begins to wind things down ahead of the team’s day off on Sunday.
As for the live updates here, Scotty Payne will continue to update this post live. I hope to be back next week for all-day type coverage.

#Broncos WR Courtland Sutton, Jaylen Waddle both doing work on side field during position drills at camp this AM.
— Luca Evans (@bylucaevans) August 6, 2026
So perhaps not, indeed, a *true* couple rest days for Sutton.
Nik Bonitto also doing ladder work on side field, as are Luke Wattenberg + rookie OLB Dasan McCullough

Bo Nix just hit Evan Engram over the middle through a few defenders for a nice connection in 7-on-7. #KOABroncosCamp@KOAColorado
— AROD – Anthony Rodriguez (@AnthonyRod33) August 6, 2026
Jaleel McLaughlin ran two eye-popping routes in RB-LB coverage drills in #Broncos camp today. Moss’d Taurean York on a deep ball and broke off Red Murdock.
— Luca Evans (@bylucaevans) August 6, 2026
More from individuals:
-Pat Bryant beat Jahdae Barron 2x
-Pat Surtain PBU on Hakeem Butler
-Kolbe Katsis deep ball
Nice couple of completions to Engram from Nix during 7-on-7. Was targeted heavy early in camp but the ball has been spread around a lot since then

RJ Harvey has feasted on wheel routes all camp. Just got one from Jarrett Stidham on the left numbers for 20 yards during 7on7

Cameron Ross with a deep TD catch from Ehlinger during 7s. Feels like he’s had the most consistent camp so far of the deep roster WRs. Still a huge fan of Hakeem Butler though
— Ryan Edwards (@redwardsradio) August 6, 2026
Mr. Irrelevant LB Red Murdock with a nice series in 7-on-7. Wasn’t afraid to lower the shoulder to meet some receivers for a few big hits just a few yards downfield. He fills that 6’1” // 240 nicely.#KOABroncosCamp@KOAColorado
— AROD – Anthony Rodriguez (@AnthonyRod33) August 6, 2026
A dart from Bo Nix to Pat Bryant in the middle of the field for 15 yards. Riley Moss in great coverage but Bryant makes the good catch.
— Zac Stevens (@ZacStevens) August 6, 2026
Pat Bryant makes plays every damn day. Clear WR3 to me
— Ryan Edwards (@redwardsradio) August 6, 2026
Second team Broncos today Michael Dieter snapping to Jarrett Stidham.
— Chris Tomasson (@christomasson) August 6, 2026
Jaylen Waddle had a long discussion with Sean Payton here during ST period. Both seem in good spirits. Waddle is holding a play-sheet.
— Luca Evans (@bylucaevans) August 6, 2026
Waddle has been walking with a noticeable limp today, but went through extended rehab/side-field work
Alex Palczewski in with first team here in another #Broncos team period. Don’t see Ben Powers on sideline.

Bo Nix has been sharp today.
— Zac Stevens (@ZacStevens) August 6, 2026
Through two team periods, the ball hasn’t hit the ground.
Highlight so far is a 15-yard completion to Pat Bryant in tight coverage in the middle of the field.
Jahdae Barron’s had a really nice day at #Broncos camp thus far. Snuffed out a screen to Pat Bryant earlier in team, nearly lit up Bryant on a play this period and just had a subsequent PBU
— Luca Evans (@bylucaevans) August 6, 2026
Nice pressure by Tillman to force Stidham out of the pocket and a short gain
— Ryan Edwards (@redwardsradio) August 6, 2026
