Broncos place Turner on NFI, Gargiulo on PUP
The Denver Broncos placed guard Nick Gargiulo on the physically unable to perform list and linebacker Jordan Turner on the non-football injury list as they approach the start of training camp, with both players counting against the 90-man roster. Gargiulo, a 2024 seventh-round pick who spent 2025 on injured reserve after a knee injury, is expected to miss early camp, potentially increasing opportunities for backup linemen such as rookie Kage Casey. Turner, a 2025 UDFA out of Michigan State who appeared in seven games with seven tackles and 117 special-teams snaps, will begin camp on the NFI list, leaving a window for other linebackers like Karene Reid, Levelle Bailey, Red Murdock, and Taurean York to push for depth behind starters Alex Singleton and Justin Strnad. The team has indicated Turner's status is not yet clear and will require a physical to return, while Gargiulo will similarly need to pass a medical evaluation to rejoin practice. Several reports note that camp opens with July 31 as the first open practice, highlighting the ongoing competition for linebacker and offensive line depth ahead of the 2026 season.
