WATCH: Denver Broncos Defense Could BREAK NFL Sack Record in 2026

After showcasing back-to-back franchise record seasons, the Denver Broncos defense could break the NFL sack record in 2026. Despite losing John Franklin-Myers, how could the Broncos defense replace his sack value? Could Justin Strnad, Talanoa Hufanga and other players contribute more rushing the quarterback? Cody Roark and Sayre Bedinger break that down and hypothesize what the Broncos defense could do if they can force more takeaways this upcoming season, which was something they struggled with in 2025 and they discuss what it could look like if Drew Sanders ends up being great this year.

 

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.
