AFC Notes: Broncos, Chargers, Raiders

Broncos

  • Ben Volin of the Boston Globe thinks the Broncos will be more affected by the unique challenges of the 2020 season given OC Pat Shurmur is installing a new system.

Chargers

  • According to Chargers Wireโ€™s Gavino Borquez, Chargers CBs Casey Hayward and Chris Harris are locked into roles as the No. 1 corner and starting slot corner headed into 2020. 
  • At the other outside corner spot, Borquez expects Michael Davis to compete with Brandon Facyson for the starting role. 
  • The addition of Harris muddies the waters for Chargers CB Desmond King, who was Los Angelesโ€™ starting slot corner in 2019. Borquez said the Chargers could still find snaps for King as a dime linebacker or on special teams. 
  • Borquez also mentions Chargers CB Quenton Meeks as someone who could round out the final roster and win a spot. 

Raiders

  • According to the Las Vegas Review-Journalโ€™s Vincent Bonsignore, Raiders HC Jon Gruden and the rest of the coaching staff will start working out of the teamโ€™s new Nevada facility in Henderson once construction wraps up in around two weeks. 
  • AL.comโ€™s Wesley Sinor reports Raiders first-round WR Henry Ruggs III is using crutches following an accident while helping a friend move. Ruggs sustained a puncture or laceration to his thigh.
