Head coach Sean Payton is stamping his impact on the Denver Broncos beyond the X's and O's, making them one of the NFL's top-ranked rosters.

About 800 members of Broncos Country packed the temporary bleachers set up due to the construction of the new training facility. They were loud and proud, and head coach Sean Payton took note.

With the Broncos turning to Palczewski instead of Matt Peart, Frank Crum, or someone else, they make their pecking order clear. Palczewski is the backup right tackle, at least for now, despite the talk that they prefer him as a guard, which began during last year's training camp.

Following the Broncos' first official day of training camp, Head Coach Sean Payton discusses the acclimation of tight end Evan Engram, the leadership on the team and more.

"You hope that we’re further along because we played a lot of young players a year ago," Broncos coach Sean Payton said.

But there’s no unapproved PTO in Denver. Courtland Sutton, Bonitto, Franklin-Myers and Zach Allen — the Broncos’ core four angling for extensions this offseason — were all present and active at camp Wednesday, even as Sutton took limited reps.

The Denver Broncos practiced for the first time in training camp, and Courtland Sutton was one of the players who drew attention.
