Riley Moss or Ja’Quan McMillian? Which CB should the Broncos re-sign?

With the Denver Broncos sitting at 4-2 and riding high after a dramatic overtime win over the Seattle Seahawks, the focus has shifted from their struggling offense to a pressing secondary dilemma: which cornerback to re-sign. Both starting corners, Riley Moss and Ja’Quan McMillian, will hit free agency this offseason, forcing the team to choose between them.

Early in the season, McMillian has been the standout, delivering game-changing plays, including a game-sealing sack against the Chargers and a pivotal interception in overtime against the Seahawks that set up the game-winning field goal. His clutch performances, including postseason heroics, have solidified his reputation as one of the NFL’s best slot corners.

Moss, meanwhile, has shown flashes of brilliance, such as his interception against the Jaguars that sparked a late comeback. However, injuries have limited his availability, with a rib injury sidelining him against the Chargers and restricting his role in the Seahawks game.

While Moss provides elite boundary-corner coverage, McMillian’s consistency and impact have made him the more compelling option for Denver as they evaluate their secondary depth. The decision will also hinge on how young players like Jahdae Barron and Kris Abrams-Draine develop, but for now, McMillian appears to have the edge in the re-signing debate.
