Broncos specialists have practiced together this offseason

NFL coaches are not allowed to hold official practices at this time of year but players are allowed to work out together on a voluntary basis.

Broncos quarterback Drew Lock organized some unofficial practices in the Denver area and many of the team’s offensive players — and even some defenders — were able to attend them.

During a Zoom conference call with reporters on June 11, Broncos special teams coordinator Tom McMahon said the team’s specialists have also worked together this offseason.

“I can’t be out there with them,” McMahon said. “I can’t watch anything that they’re doing, but I know that all those guys — our snappers, kicker and our punter — have worked together already.

“I think it is necessary, but they’ve taken that upon themselves and done it. I think they’re going to come into camp ready to go.”

Denver kicker Brandon McManus will return this season but the team will have a new punter/holder (Sam Martin) and a new long snapper (either Jacob Bobenmoyer or Wes Farnsworth). Those specialists will get to work together at official practices when training camp starts later this month.
