Broncos third-round rookie Sai’vion Jones made his NFL debut on Monday night. 

Jones — 6-foot-5 and 285-pound defensive end from LSU — played sparingly with six defensive snaps and two snaps on special teams. But it was enough to impress a team captain in a 28-3 home victory over the Bengals.  

“He’s relentless,” defensive lineman D.J Jones said about his rookie teammate. “He had a particular rush last night that I just watched on film. He’s very relentless. That one play showed me everything I needed to see. He wasn’t timid (Monday) night. He wanted to get in the game. I was very impressed with what he put on film.” 

Broncos defensive line coach Jamar Cain previously coached Sai’vion Jones during the 2022 college football season at LSU. Jones discussed that familiarity back in May during rookie minicamp at Broncos Park.  

“Being comfortable and trusting,” Jones said. “With a new coach, you have to build that from the ground. Already having the trust established is a whole other thing.” 

Defensive lineman Jordan Jackson was inactive Monday against the Chargers to give Jones his first NFL game appearance. The Broncos (2-2) travel to face the Eagles (4-0) on Sunday in Philadelphia.  

Eagles winning streak 

The Eagles have won 20 of their last 21 games dating back to last season. The defending Super Bowl champions are undefeated this year despite ranking No. 30 in the NFL for total offense (251.5 yards/game). Philadelphia’s defense has also produced just four sacks.  

But there is no overlooking the Eagles on a short week before traveling for the London game against the Jets. Tight end Adam Trautman described Philadelphia’s streak of one loss over 21 games as “pretty insane.” 

“It’s a team that you know is going to show up,” Trautman said. “You have to bring your best. Especially with a team like this, who is always at the top … they play teams every week that want to beat them. Like the saying: ‘You’re getting their best shot’ every week because you are the top dog. To be able to continuously win like they have is obviously super impressive.” 

Injury report

The Broncos did not practice Wednesday but provided an estimated injury report.

Tight end Nate Adkins was listed as a non-participant with a concussion. Two players were limited in outside linebacker Jonah Elliss (ribs) and wide receiver Marvin Mims (hip/ankle).

Outside linebacker Nik Bonitto (wrist) and inside linebacker Alex Singleton (thumb) were full participants.

Briefly 

Eagles coach Nick Sirianni is impressed with Denver’s pass rush. On Wednesday, the Eagles coach told Philadelphia media: “This is a really good defense. A lot of respect for them and the playmakers that they have at every level, especially at the edge position. They’re fast, they’re quick, they’re athletic, and they’re physical. All the things that you would imagine. These guys have it.” … The Eagles are a 3.5-point home favorite over the Broncos on Sunday, per ESPN Bet. … The Broncos did not have media availability on Wednesday.
