The Denver Broncos have released their depth chart ahead of an AFC West showdown with the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 8.

The team made a host of roster moves last weekend, including placing outside linebacker Jonah Elliss (ankle) and running back Tyler Badie (thumb) on injured reserve, ruling them out for at least four games. To fill those roster spots, Denver activated pass rusher Jonathon Cooper and running back Jonah Coleman (ankle).

Note that despite coming straight from the team, the club calls this an "unofficial" depth chart. However, it should still provide a rough idea of how players stack up, though perhaps with a few caveats.

Here's a look at the official "unofficial" depth chart from the Broncos ahead of Sunday's game against the Chiefs.

Broncos depth chart

Quarterback (3)

• QB1: Bo Nix

• QB2: Jarrett Stidham

• QB3: Sam Ehlinger

Jarrett Stidham is the primary backup quarterback, a role he has held since Sean Payton arrived in 2023. Sam Ehlinger has remained loyal to the team as QB3 despite drawing interest from other clubs.

Running back (3)

• RB1: J.K. Dobbins 

• RB2: RJ Harvey

• RB3: Jonah Coleman

Jonah Coleman returned from injured reserve last week. Denver also has Cody Schrader available on the practice squad.

Wide receiver (5)

• WR: Marvin Mims, Troy Franklin

• WR: Jaylen Waddle, Lil'Jordan Humphrey

• WR: Courtland Sutton

Pat Bryant (ankle) landed on injured reserve three weeks ago, and he has to sit out at least one more game. Lil'Jordan Humphrey provides more depth at the position in the meantime.

Tight end/fullback (5)

• TE1: Evan Engram

• TE2: Adam Trautman

• TE3: Nate Adkins

• TE4: Dallen Bentley

• FB: Adam Prentice

Dallen Bentley has been a healthy scratch for every game so far this season. If no injuries pop up, the seventh-round draft pick might have to wait until his second season to get an opportunity.

Offensive line (9)

• LT: Garett Bolles, Matt Peart

• LG: Ben Powers, Kage Casey

• C: Luke Wattenberg, Alex Forsyth

• RG: Quinn Meinerz, Kage Casey

• RT: Mike McGlinchey, Alex Palczewski

Kage Casey is listed as the backup guard for both spots, but Alex Palczewski filled in when left guard Ben Powers was injured last season. Palczewski is probably the top backup for both guard spots and right tackle.

Defensive line (7)

• DE: Zach Allen, Jordan Jackson, Tyler Onyedim

• NT: D.J. Jones, Sai'vion Jones

• DE: Malcolm Roach, Eyioma Uwazurike

Malcolm Roach (283 snaps) is listed as a starter, but Eyioma Uwazurike (272 snaps) has also been a key part of the defensive line rotation.

Outside linebacker (4)

• OLB: Nik Bonitto, Que Robinson

• OLB: Jonathon Cooper, Dondrea Tillman

Jonathon Cooper (felony assault case) has a trial by jury scheduled for March, but he was reinstated by the NFL ahead of last week's game and is back in the team's starting lineup.

Inside linebacker (4)

• LB: Alex Singleton, Jordan Turner

• LB: Justin Strnad, Karene Reid

Denver also has seventh-round draft pick Red Murdock providing additional depth on the practice squad.

Cornerback (5)

• CB1: Pat Surtain, Jahdae Barron

• CB2: Riley Moss, Kris Abrams-Draine

• Nickel: Ja’Quan McMillian, Jahdae Barron

Jahdae Barron and Kris Abrams-Draine did an excellent job stepping up while PS2 and Moss were sidelined with injuries. We'll see if Surtain (ankle) is ready to return to the lineup this week.

Safety (5)

• S: Talanoa Hufunga, JL Skinner, Tycen Anderson

• S: Brandon Jones, Devon Key

Seventh-round draft pick Miles Scott and veteran Taylor Rapp are also available on the practice squad. Rapp has been elevated to the game-day roster for the last two games.

Special teams

• K: Wil Lutz

• P: Jeremy Crawshaw

• LS: Mitchell Fraboni

• KR: Marvin Mims, Tyler Badie, RJ Harvey

• PR: Marvin Mims, Riley Moss

Marvin Mims is on pace for 915 all-purpose yards this season, which would mark the first time in his career he hasn't topped 1,000 yards. Payton said earlier this week that they want to get Mims more touches.
