Bonitto (back) returned to practice Wednesday, Ryan McFadden of The Denver Post reports. Bonitto has been dealing with a back issue for the past week or so, but it now appears that he's moved past the injury. The 2022 second-round pick out of Oklahoma recorded 30 total tackles, including 8.0 sacks across 15 games in his sophomore campaign, and he's expected to remain an impactful edge rusher heading into 2024.
Bonitto (back) is expected to return to practice soon, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports. Bonitto is still dealing with a back injury but is now expected to return to practice as soon as Wednesday. Once healthy, the 2022 second-round pick will look to build off his career-year last season when he recorded 8.0 sacks.
Coach Sean Payton said that Bonitto should practice Saturday, Ryan McFadden of The Denver Post reports. Bonitto left the Broncos' last game of their 2023 season early due to a calf injury, but it doesn't look like that will carry over to the new football year. Now he'll work to try to improve on the impressive benchmark (8.0 sacks) he set for himself last year.
