Two words did the job just fine, because nobody needed any kind of soliloquy to understand the things Troy Franklin was doing Saturday night.

Glimpses of Troy Franklin's arrival for the Denver Broncos were fleeting during his rookie season. On Saturday against the Cardinals, he put his potential Year 2 jump on full display, collecting four receptions for 67 yards and two touchdowns.

Broncos head coach Sean Payton said recently that the team is capable of winning a Super Bowl and their chances of pulling that off will be better if some players take big strides from where they were last season.

Broncos HC Sean Payton believes that WR Troy Franklin is taking his play to another level, and his teammates have also taken notice, including QB Jarrett Stidham, who has worked with Franklin this offseason.

On Wednesday, the Denver Broncos shocked fans by trading away second-year wide receiver Devaughn Vele to the New Orleans Saints in exchange for picks. Vele had been running with the first-team offense and had started seven games as a rookie last year, and the Broncos really valued him.

The Denver Broncos made an unexpected trade, and it bodes well for rookie third-round draft pick and wide receiver Pat Bryant.

After a two-touchdown performance on Saturday, Sean Payton knows that Troy Franklin's breakout season is upon us.

There were several reasons why the Broncos let their second-best receiver from a year ago go, but 4th-round compensation was key.

On day 3 of the 2024 NFL Draft, Sean Payton, not known to be an early riser, texted GM George Paton at 6:00 AM, telling him to get Franklin. Well, the Broncos were able to trade up with the Seahawks and would go on to select wide receiver Troy Franklin.
