The Denver Broncos evaluated 12 players in workouts on Monday, with 11 hailing from the Canadian Football League (CFL), as reported by KPRC-TV’s Aaron Wilson. This diverse group included three wide receivers, two offensive linemen, four linebackers, and three defensive linemen. Of these, four players have prior NFL experience: linebacker Isaac Darkangelo (formerly with the Lions and Raiders), wide receiver Makai Polk (Ravens and Giants), defensive lineman Jonah Tavai (Seahawks), and linebacker Davion Taylor (Eagles, Bears, and Cardinals).
The lone participant without CFL ties was offensive lineman Spencer Rolland, recently released from the Green Bay Packers’ practice squad. Below is the complete list of players who participated in the workouts:
- Wide Receivers: AJou Ajou (6’2″, 211 lbs), Ayden Eberhardt (6’2″, 195 lbs), Makai Polk (6’3″, 197 lbs)
- Offensive Linemen: Logan Ferland (6’4″, 275 lbs), Spencer Rolland (6’6″, 306 lbs)
- Linebackers: A.J. Allen (6’1″, 210 lbs), Michael Ayers (6’2″, 220 lbs), Isaac Darkangelo (6’1″, 230 lbs), Davion Taylor (6’1″, 230 lbs)
- Defensive Linemen: Brandon Barlow (6’4″, 260 lbs), Elliott Brown (6’5″, 225 lbs), Jonah Tavai (5’10”, 283 lbs)
The Broncos appear to be exploring potential additions for reserve/future contracts at the conclusion of the 2024 NFL season. Such contracts are typically signed by players not currently on active rosters but with potential to contribute during the offseason and training camp.
This mix of talent demonstrates Denver’s interest in scouting untapped potential from the CFL and beyond. With several players possessing previous NFL experience, the organization may be seeking individuals who can contribute depth and versatility heading into 2025. For the Broncos, these workouts are a strategic step in identifying players who could bolster their roster in the near future.
