AutoDraft Pro AI

The Denver Broncos have converted $10.2 million of edge rusher Jonathon Cooper’s salary into a signing bonus. This strategic move clears $8.2 million in 2026 cap space, resulting in a $5.78 million cap hit for the current season. This is the team's second major restructure this offseason as they maintain flexibility, though they have yet to sign an external free agent, focusing instead on internal re-signings and potential roster adjustments.
