Does Jahdae Barron or Jarrett Stidham have more on the line in the Broncos’ final preseason game?

This is the DNVR Broncos Podcast from the Xfinity Studio and Arte's Golfing, which means we've got Dre again. And we've been here before, our camp, the golf course.

**Andre Simone** (0:12)
Sure is. It's a...

**Henry Chisholm** (0:14)
Dre doing his job.

**Andre Simone** (0:15)
Greatest tradition in sports, really.

**Henry Chisholm** (0:17)
It really is.

**Andre Simone** (0:17)
Some have said it's overtaken the masters.

**Zac Stevens** (0:19)
Yeah.

**SPEAKER_4** (0:20)
Yep.

**Henry Chisholm** (0:22)
But it's not just me and Dre today.

**Zac Stevens** (0:23)
No, it wouldn't have been.

**Henry Chisholm** (0:24)
It's also you're here behind the scenes as always. And our friend, Zac Stevens, out at Broncos Park, powered by Common Spirit on the Xfinity Mobile Call-in Line.

**Zac Stevens** (0:34)
Hell yeah. Henry, I just got to say, props to you for blasting RK for being on the golf course. Wow. I was not expecting this show to start off like that. That's pretty electric.

**Henry Chisholm** (0:46)
Yeah.
He's at a really nice golf course with a bunch of really cool people. And so like this is one where just he can take this one today.

**Zac Stevens** (0:56)
That's nice of you to let him take this one.

**Henry Chisholm** (0:58)
Yeah.

**Andre Simone** (0:58)
Yeah. Great work by him.
You're also doing great work, Zac. What are you observing out there as you're doing this said great work?

**Zac Stevens** (1:08)
Well, Broncos are turning and churning and burning people on their roster. Cast three days, sign three people, let three people go. And the two biggest names that they've let go, Hakeem Butler, who was released yesterday, who was supposed to be this UFL darling. He was cut, didn't even last a month. And then Taylor Rapp is the name that Henry brought up to start the show. And he's a vet who started in fighting 42 games in his NFL career, played in 71
He doesn't even make it a week on this Broncos roster. In fact, his over under for practices was .5. He was at 0.5 practices in his time with the Denver Broncos. So a very short career for Taylor Rapp. Broncos bring in a couple of guys. Bring in a defensive tackle and an offensive tackle. The offensive tackle is a guy that spent the past four years with the Chargers, played in a couple of games in this defensive tackle, 325 pounds. And he's a guy, his last name is Antwine, which is a pretty cool last name.
And he's a guy that also spent time in the UFL. So Broncos trying to tap in to this UFL roster. Actually, he also spent time in the CFL, UFL and IFL, the indoor football league. So that's how he gets to add the NFL to that. My guess, guys, is they're going to get a look at all these guys and then, you know, they probably won't be on the roster after someday.

**Henry Chisholm** (2:27)
Yeah, I mean, that's the best bet. You always have the practice squad, but it does seem like it'd be a stretch for any of them to still be in the building next week.

**Zac Stevens** (2:36)
Exactly. Exactly. What else is going on around here? Andre, yesterday, there was some fascinating comments from Vance Joseph and Davis Webb. But I want to start with Vance Joseph's comments because Vance made two fascinating comments. First, he called out the Broncos defense in their second pre-season game. We know how the Broncos defense started. Twelve plays, 66-yard touchdown drive that the starting defense gave up. Jordan Love looked like he was having no issue moving down the field, picking up what he wanted to pick up. There was like, what was happening? Sean said that on that final touchdown play, Alex Singleton was on algebra four when everyone else was still stuck in algebra one. Alex Singleton said, we're saving stuff for the regular season. Vance Joseph might have given us the most honest answer when he hit it on the head. He called out the Broncos defense, said they were a little bit lazy and un... What was the word? Unprepared. No, un... I can't think of the other word. That's a kind of a key word. I'll look that up in a second.
You know what? It might have been undis...
RG is saying unmotivated. Let me just tap into my notes. I've got this right here. It was un...
Oh, boy. What could this be?

**Andre Simone** (3:54)
This is a great game to be playing. No, no, no.

**Zac Stevens** (3:57)
Now I'm too far in. I've got to find this.

**Henry Chisholm** (3:59)
They were unbothered?

**Zac Stevens** (4:03)
Unengaged. There we go. I finally found it. Unengaged and a little bit lazy. I was unengaged there for a second, so Vance can call me out on that one, too.
