Ahead of their season opener on Sunday, the Denver Broncos have announced their team captains for this season as voted on by teammates.

Denver Broncos announce team captains for 2025

The Denver Broncos have announced their list of team captains for this upcoming season. Voting was conducted by players on the roster who collectively decided who will lead the team for the 2025 season.

  • Quarterback Bo Nix
  • Wide Receiver Courtland Sutton
  • Kicker Wil Lutz
  • Cornerback Patrick Surtain II
  • Safety Talanoa Hufanga
  • Offensive Guard Quinn Meinerz
  • Inside linebacker Alex Singleton
  • Defensive lineman D.J. Jones

Nix, Sutton, Singleton, Lutz, Surtain, and Meinerz were all voted as team captains last year. Hufanga and Jones join the mix as new captains this season.

Head coach Sean Payton has often referenced this roster as a player-led group, and collectively, they have set the standard inside the locker room and on the field. Of the mix of players voted on, there isn’t a single surprise here based on everything we’ve seen with them.
