Broncos training camp Injury worries mounting — Zach & Phil debate resting starters vs. continuity

Zach Bye and Phillip Lindsay dive into the growing soft‑tissue injury concerns at Broncos training camp. Zach even jokes that his Starbucks barista wrote a comment about JK Dobbins’ injuries on his cup — fitting, given how many offensive starters have missed time.

The offense hasn’t looked sharp, and Zach believes the lack of continuity is a major reason why. That sparks a real debate: should the Broncos play their starters in Friday’s preseason opener to build rhythm, or should they rest Bo Nix, JK Dobbins, and anyone dealing with even minor issues

Zach wants to see the starters for a drive or two to establish timing. Phil takes the cautious route, saying rest Bo and anyone who needs it — no risks, no setbacks.
