SURPRISE: Denver Broncos To TEST Jonah Elliss At Inside Linebacker In 2026

Denver Broncos head coach Sean Payton revealed on Tuesday that Jonah Elliss will take some snaps at inside linebacker this upcoming season, a shift from him playing off the edge. Cody Roark and Sayre Bedinger break down why this could be an under-the-radar move for the Broncos defense, but requires patience from the staff and Broncos Country. Plus, they discuss Payton revealing the blueprint for Jaylen Waddle's usage this season and why the team focused on tuning out the outside noise during the offseason.

 

Cody Roark is a credentialed beat reporter for Mile High Sports and covers the Broncos daily in person. Sayre Bedinger is the site expert for Predominantly Orange. Both bring Broncos Country the most in-depth and objective coverage of the Denver Broncos.
