Broncos' Brandon Jones: Won't play at Carolina
Jones (hamstring) is officially listed as out for Sunday's game against the Panthers.
Jones was forced out of the Broncos' contest versus the Chiefs in Week 8 early by a hamstring injury, and he'll now have to sit out his first game of the season as he recovers. In his absence, Devon Key could get a start at safety in Week 9.

Broncos' Brandon Jones: Ruled out for rest of Sunday
Jones (hamstring) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's contest against the Chiefs, Parker Gabriel of The Denver Post reports.
Jones entered Sunday's matchup with a questionable tag after suffering a hamstring injury at practice during the week. Although the safety was ultimately able to play, it's possible that he tweaked the injury during the game, and he will now have to shift his sights to Week 9. In his absence, Taylor Rapp and Devon Key will operate as Denver's two primary safeties against Kansas City.

Broncos' Brandon Jones: Questionable due to hamstring injury
Jones (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Chiefs.
Jones may have tweaked his hamstring during Week 8 prep, seeing as he popped up on Thursday's injury report as a limited practice participant. Talanoa Hufanga (ankle) has already been ruled out, and if he's joined by Jones on the sidelines, then the Broncos would have to rely more heavily on Devon Key, JL Skinner and Jahdae Barron in the secondary.

Broncos' Brandon Jones: Has another nice day Sunday
Jones recorded nine tackles (five solo) and a pass defensed during Sunday's 30-16 win at Arizona.
After another solid performance in Week 7, Jones has now posted eight-plus total tackles in four of his last five games. He's easily on pace for a 100-tackle season, and he's solidly on the IDP radar in most formats going into a Week 8 tilt versus a balanced Chiefs offense.

Broncos' Brandon Jones: Eight tackles in TNF victory
Jones recorded eight tackles (three solo) in Thursday night's 17-14 overtime win over the Seahawks.
Jones played all 85 defensive snaps in the overtime rock fight between two anemic offenses. The 28-year-old safety has piled up 43 tackles (26 solo), four pass breakups, including two interceptions, and one fumble recovery across six contests this season. He's logged 98.6 percent of the Broncos' defensive snaps.

Broncos' Brandon Jones: Game-high 12 tackles in Week 3 win
Jones posted 12 tackles (10 solo) and one pass defense during the Broncos' 30-26 win over the Rams on Sunday.
Sunday was the first time since Week 3 of the 2025 season that Jones posted double-digit tackles, and his 10 solo tackles were one shy from matching his career high that he set in Week 6 of the 2024 campaign against the Chargers. Jones has played almost every single defensive snap and is up to 22 combined tackles through three regular-season games, which is second-most on the Broncos behind Alex Singleton (33).

Broncos' Brandon Jones: Gets a pick in loss
Jones recorded five tackles (one solo) and an interception during Monday's 31-10 loss at Kansas City.
With the Chiefs backed up near their own goal line in the third quarter, Jones found himself at the right place at the right time on an overthrown ball over the middle by quarterback Patrick Mahomes, setting up a Broncos field goal. He'll be looking to keep up the momentum come Week 2 versus the Jaguars.

Broncos' Brandon Jones: In pads at camp
Jones (pectoral) is participating at the Broncos' training camp, Gabriel Christus of the team's official site reports.
Jones ended the 2025 season on IR after suffering a pectoral injury in December that required surgery to address, but he's now back in action with training camp underway. He projects to start at safety next to Talanoa Hufanga again in 2026.

Broncos' Brandon Jones: Tallies 78 tackles in 2025
Jones (pectoral) finished the 2025 regular season with 78 tackles (43 solo), including 0.5 sacks, seven passes defensed, including one interception, and one fumble recovery across 14 games.
Jones was having a solid sixth season before suffering a pectoral injury in a Week 15 win over the Packers that required surgery to repair and landed him on injured reserve. The 27-year-old safety was unable to play in the Broncos' two playoff contests, but it appears he was a candidate to return to action if Denver made it to Super Bowl LX. Assuming he is back to full health next season, Jones should return to his starting free safety position as a key member of the Broncos' top-tier defense. The Texas product is entering the final year of his three-year deal with the Broncos before becoming a free agent in 2027.

Broncos' Brandon Jones: Out at least two more games
Jones (pectoral) could be a candidate to return to action for Super Bowl LX, if the Broncos advance to that point in the postseason, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.
Jones was placed on IR in mid-December and subsequently underwent surgery to repair a torn pec suffered Week 15 versus the Packers. While he could be a candidate to return early February, Jones will remain sidelined for Sunday's divisional-round matchup against the Bills or the AFC Championship Game, leaving P.J. Locke (leg) to continue filling in as Denver's starting free safety.

Broncos' Brandon Jones: Placed on IR
Jones (pectoral) was placed on injured reserve Monday, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official website reports.
Jones suffered a pectoral injury in Sunday's 34-26 win over the Packers, and he will now be forced to miss the final three games of the regular season and the team's first postseason contest. In his absence, Devon Key and P.J. Locke are the top candidates to take over as the team's primary free safety for the stretch run, beginning in Week 16 against the Jaguars.

Broncos' Brandon Jones: Dealing with pec injury
Jones is set to undergo an MRI after sustaining a pec injury in Sunday's 34-26 win over the Packers, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
The Texas product played just 51 percent of the Broncos' defensive snaps in the Week 15 win due to a pec injury. Jones is an integral part of Denver's secondary, recording 78 total tackles and seven passes defensed, including one interception, across 14 appearances this season. His practice participation throughout the week will likely provide the best indication of whether he can play in the Week 16 matchup against the Jaguars.

Broncos' Brandon Jones: Records just one tackle Sunday
Jones recorded one tackle (one solo) during Sunday's 24-17 win at Las Vegas.
In a game where the Raiders' offense struggled to stay on the field, Jones was only needed for a season-low 43 defensive snaps, leading to a poor day on the stat sheet. He'll be looking to get more involved in a Week 15 matchup versus the run-heavy Packers.

Jones was on the field for all 62 of the team's defensive snaps, marking the second straight week he's seen 100 percent of the defensive action and the fourth time overall this season. Additionally, the safety was able to get his paws on a pass from Patrick Mahomes in the fourth quarter, knocking it down before it reached its intended target, Travis Kelce.
