New coach, new quarterback, new coordinators and new owners highlight the Broncos’ tumultuous offseason.
The main one is new outside linebacker Randy Gregory , who had his surgery after signing a five-year, $70 million contract and did not participate in any offseason workouts. The expectation remains that Gregory will be ready for Week 1, but when he will begin practicing and how he will be managed remains unclear.
From 2013-19, when Wilson was the established Seattle starter, he averaged 36.9 pass attempts in the preseason. There was no preseason in 2020 and he was held out last year. The Seahawks rationalized it by saying they needed to figure out the back-up situation. Starting tight end — Kind of, sort of, right? Albert Okwuegbunam and rookie Greg Dulcich will both play a lot, but somebody has to start the game. Okwuegbunam, entering his third year, has a terrific opportunity.
