Chad Jensen· Aug 24, 2026

Jensen suggests Taylor Rapp's signing could bump Devon Key down to fourth on Denver's safety depth chart (Key had been the favorite for the No. 3 job), and asserts Key's roster spot is secure. He also expects Rapp may not debut until the Week 1 opener.

Rapp's arrival could push Devon Key down a spot on the depth chart.
