Broncos Sign Veteran Cornerback Sam Webb After Rookie Injury

Webb joins the 90-man training-camp roster to provide short-term depth for Denver’s crowded cornerback group.

Overview

  • The Broncos signed 28-year-old defensive back Sam Webb after a tryout on Thursday, July 30, 2026, according to team and local reports.
  • Rookie cornerback Blake Cotton left a Wednesday ramp-up practice with a hamstring injury and was waived the same day with an injury designation and settlement.
  • Webb is a five-season NFL player who has appeared in 36 regular-season games and brings experience at corner and safety, including a fumble-return touchdown in his career.
  • Undrafted rookie Ricardo Hallman also had a tryout but remained unsigned; Hallman starred at Wisconsin with 92 tackles and 10 interceptions in college.
  • The move reflects routine camp roster management: teams fill the 90-man roster with experienced veterans as short-term depth and competition while injured players take settlements to recover away from injured reserve.
