BREAKING: The Denver Broncos have just promoted linebacker Jordan Turner from the practice squad, paving the way for his NFL debut against the Dallas Cowboys this Sunday, October 29, 2025. This move comes in light of Dre Greenlaw’s one-game suspension, confirmed by team officials earlier today.
Turner, a 23-year-old rookie undrafted free agent, steps onto the active roster after impressive performances during the offseason and preseason. Standing at 6-foot-1 and weighing 231 pounds, he has shown the potential to significantly impact the Broncos’ defensive strategy.
Originally drafted out of Wisconsin, Turner transferred to Michigan State for his final college season, where he accumulated 201 combined tackles, 23 tackles for loss, eight sacks, and five interceptions over 42 games. His versatility and athleticism make him a formidable addition to the Broncos’ defense.
“Jordan Turner has the ideal length and athleticism combination that is sought after at the NFL level at LB,” noted an NFL scout. “He has good overall cover skills… and very good acceleration to break on the ball.”
With Turner joining fellow linebackers Alex Singleton, Justin Strnad, and Karene Reid on the gameday roster, the Broncos aim to strengthen their defense against a challenging Cowboys team. Head coach Sean Payton addressed the Greenlaw suspension, stating, “We were clearly in his corner with the appeal. But again, we can’t control that.”
The Broncos, coming off a recent victory over the New York Giants, will rely on Turner’s skills to help maintain momentum. Fans and analysts alike are eager to see how this young talent performs under pressure in his first NFL game.
As the game approaches, all eyes will be on Turner. Will he rise to the occasion and make a significant impact in his debut against the Cowboys? Stay tuned for updates and be sure to share this exciting news with fellow Broncos fans!
