Who will be the Denver Broncos’ statistical leaders in the 2022 NFL season?

The Broncos are just months away from embarking on what should be an exciting and critical season in the franchise’s storied history. After missing the playoffs in each of the last six seasons, the team is ready to return to the postseason.

But that won’t come easily. Playing in what is easily the most stacked division in football, the Broncos will have to find a way to survive the AFC West while also playing the difficult NFC West in its non-conference scheduled games.

The Broncos have a good roster with potential stars at all of the key positions. The big question will be how new head coach Nathaniel Hackett puts things together in his first season.

There will be a lot to look forward to this season and plenty of questions to be answered. Here, you will get a quick look at some predictions as far as which players will lead the team in the major statistical categories.
