Broncos' P.J. Locke: Participating in training camp
Locke (back) participated in Denver's training camp session Wednesday, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports.
Locke is healthy again after having undergone spinal fusion surgery earlier in the offseason. He recorded 74 tackles (50 solo), with 1.0 sacks, across 15 regular-season games last season but could see a reduced role during the upcoming campaign, as Talanoa Hufanga will likely replace him as the team's starting strong safety.

Broncos' P.J. Locke: Recovering from surgery
Locke underwent spinal fusion surgery during the offseason and is still recovering, he recently disclosed on his YouTube channel.
Locke played through the back injury during the 2024 season and managed to play 982 total snaps over 15 regular-season games despite dealing with considerable pain. His ability to return to the field was in question, but Locke said that his pain levels are minimal and he hopes to be cleared for training camp.

Broncos' P.J. Locke: Posts 74 stops in 2024
Locke recorded 74 total tackles (50 solo), including 1.0 sacks, two passes defended and one forced fumble over 15 regular-season games in 2024.
Locke's tackle total rose for the fifth consecutive season in 2024, as he tallied 21 more stops than he did in 2023. However, despite playing 425 additional defensive snaps, the Texas product recorded fewer passes defended, interceptions and forced fumbles this season compared to last, leaving plenty of room for improvement. Locke is expected to remain in Denver in 2025, having signed a two-year, $7 million extension with the team last offseason. He'll likely have the opportunity to compete for one the Broncos' starting safety spots again throughout the offseason.

Locke (thumb) has been ruled out for Sunday's matchup with the Ravens, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.

Broncos' P.J. Locke: Has left thumb in splint
Locke was seen with a splint on his left thumb Wednesday and he did not participate in practice, Chris Tomasson of The Denver Gazette reports.
Locke may have picked up the injury during the Broncos' Week 7 win over the Saints. He ended last week with back-to-back DNPs, which forced him to sit during Denver's Week 8 win over Carolina. Unless he's able to shed the splint and increase his practice participation over the next two days, it appears Locke will be unable to play Sunday against Baltimore. In Locke's absence in Week 8, Ja'Quan McMillan was listed on the Broncos' starting defense and finished with three tackles (two solo) and one interception.

Locke (thumb) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Panthers.

Broncos' P.J. Locke: Unlikely to play vs. Carolina
Locke (thumb) did not practice Friday and is listed as doubtful ahead of Sunday's game against the Panthers, Parker Gabriel of The Denver Post reports.
Locke opened the week as a limited practice participant due to a thumb injury, but he ended the week with back-to-back DNPs and appears unlikely to play Sunday. If he's indeed inactive, Devon Key would have the slight edge over JL Skinner to start at strong safety alongside free safety Brandon Jones, though Ja'Quan McMillian could also see an uptick in snaps as the nickel corner.
