​CENTENNIAL , CO – AUGUST 5: Bo Nix (10) of the Denver Broncos throws during training camp at Broncos Park in Centennial, Colorado on Wednesday, August 5, 2026. (Photo by AAron Ontiveroz/The Denver Post) | Denver Post via Getty Images Welcome to Day 6 of Denver Broncos training camp.After a third-straight padded practice on Wednesday, the Broncos defense has shown it is already nearing regular season form. They dominated the session from start to finish. The injury scares are also piling up, but so far none have been the long-term bad kind. That luck needs to hold up after seeing teams like the San Francisco 49ers pile up those bad kinds of injuries we definitely don’t ever want to see. We’ll see if the pads are on again today or if Sean Payton begins to wind things down ahead of the team’s day off on Sunday.As for the live updates here, Scotty Payne will continue to update this post live. I hope to be back next week for all-day type coverage.Broncos training camp Day 6 live updates🚨 Broncos take a day off from full pads for Thursday’s practice 🚨#KOABroncosCamppic.twitter.com/TNs66KAFuq— KOA 850 AM & 94.1 FM (@KOAColorado) August 6, 2026Looks like C Luke Wattenberg will only observe for the third day in a row.
