Broncos Re-sign McLaughlin, Keep Depth Option

0:00On March 13th, the Denver Broncos have resigned running back to Leo McLaughlin to a one-year contract worth $1,145,000, including a $125,000 signing bonus. This 25-year-old, undrafted player from 2023 returns after a limited role last season, where he gained 214. Yars from Scrimmage and one touchdown over 8 games and 41 touches. Meanwhile, coach Sean Payton has praised McLaughlin's football intelligence and background, noting the deep scouting that convinced the team he's, capable at this level. He's joining several other in-house free agents who've resigned, like J.K. Dobbins, wide receiver Lil Jordan Humphrey, Titan Adam Trautman, and Linebacker's Alex Singleton and Justin Strohnad. This move keeps McLaughlin as a depth option behind Dobbins, RJ Harvey, and Tyler Beatty, without major cap impact or shifting the team's bigger plans.
