Broncos have 4 remaining restricted free agents
The Denver Broncos have started making restricted free agent decisions — and more are on the way.
News broke on Friday that the Broncos will place a second-round tender on cornerback Ja’Quan McMillian. He will now earn $5.811 million in 2026, and a second-round price tag could prevent other teams from attempting to make an offer Denver can't match.
Meanwhile, Denver has opted not to place a tender on running back Jaleel McLaughlin, allowing him to hit free agency instead. The cheapest tender would have been $3.547 (more than J.K. Dobbins earned last season), so it's no surprise that the Broncos did not want to bring him back at that price.
Denver also has four other restricted free agents: offensive lineman Alex Palczewski, tight/end fullback Nate Adkins, tight end Lucas Krull and defensive lineman Matt Henningsen. Of those players, Palczewski seems like the strongest candidate for a tender, but none of them are guaranteed.
Broncos' other restricted free agents
- OL Alex Palczewski
- TE/FB Nate Adkins
- TE Lucas Krull
- DL Matt Henningsen
Even if these players do not receive a tender and hit free agency, the Broncos could still attempt to bring them back for less than $3.54 million. Palczewski should be a priority, and Adkins also has a strong chance to return in 2026.

Parma 1-1 Cagliari – Honours even as Oristanio cancels out Folorunsho
Parma’s run of consecutive victories was brought to an end this evening by a brave Cagliari side who gave Carlos Cuesta’s side a taste of their own medicine – although, the hosts did manage to salvage a point with seven minutes to play when Gaetano Oristanio scored to equalise after Michael Folorunsho’s opener.
It was a frustrating night for Parma, who had arrived at this fixture on the back of their stunning win against Milan at San Siro and will have harboured genuine ambitions of extending their winning streak. Cagliari, though, had other ideas, and produced a disciplined and determined display that deserved at least a share of the spoils.
The opening half was an evenly contested affair, with both sides creating half-chances without either goalkeeper being truly tested. Mateo Pellegrino was lively throughout for Parma, forcing Elia Caprile into a fine save in the 39th minute with a sharp effort from inside the box, while Cagliari’s Marco Palestra and Sebastiano Esposito both threatened on the counter without making the breakthrough.

Cuesta rang the changes at half-time, introducing Gaetano Oristanio and Hans Nicolussi Caviglia in an attempt to shift the momentum, but it was Cagliari who struck first.
In the 63rd minute, substitute Michael Folorunsho, who had only entered the field two minutes earlier, produced a moment of genuine quality, receiving the ball outside the box and unleashing a thunderous strike into the top left corner that gave Edoardo Corvi absolutely no chance. It was a goal worthy of winning any game.
Parma pushed for an equaliser and were rewarded in the 83rd minute when Oristanio pounced on a loose ball inside the box to fire low into the bottom left corner, sparking jubilant scenes from the home fans.
Both sides pressed for a winner in the closing stages, with further injuries to Esposito and Emanuele Valeri adding to the disruption, but neither could find the decisive moment.
A point apiece, then, and while Parma will reflect on a missed opportunity, Cagliari will take enormous encouragement from a performance that showed real character away from home.
