Broncos' Caden Sterns: Season likely over
Sterns is expected to be sidelined for the remainder of the season after suffering a torn patellar tendon during a 17-16 loss to the Raiders on Sunday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Sterns needed to be carted off the field after suffering the injury and was quickly ruled out for the remainder of the contest. Entering his third season, the Texas product was expected to play a more significant role in 2023. His absence could lead to increased roles for Delarrin Turner-Yell and JL Skinner at safety.

Broncos' Caden Sterns: Back for OTAs
Sterns (hip), who is bouncing back from injury, is holding his own throughout Broncos' OTAs, Chad Jensen of Sports Illustrated reports.
Sterns missed the final 12 games of the 2022 NFL season with the injury but has since had the offseason to move past the issue. He's been touted by All-Pro teammate, Justin Simmons, who told reporters that "Caden has looked really good... He's been taking care of his body really well." Expect the 2021 fifth-round pick to compete with veteran safety Kareem Jackson for a key safety role alongside Simmons under new head coach Sean Payton.

Broncos' Caden Sterns: Trending toward another absence

However, he failed to take the field in any capacity Friday, leaving his status for Sunday in doubt. K'Waun Williams will be locked into a heavy workload against the Jets should Sterns be ruled out.

Sterns was able to pick off Matt Ryan in the second quarter before doing it again in the following period, notching his first two interceptions of the campaign.

Broncos' Caden Sterns: Entering starting lineup
Sterns is expected to serve as a starting safety for Denver beginning with Sunday's game against Houston after Justin Simmons (quadriceps) was moved to injured reserve Tuesday, Ellie Kinney of the Broncos' official site reports.
Sterns is expected to start alongside Kareem Jackson while Simmons is sidelined for at least the Broncos' next four contests. The second-year pro had two interceptions, two sacks and five passes defensed across 15 games in 2021, and while handling an increased role in Simmons' absence, he could warrant monitoring in IDP formats.

Broncos' Caden Sterns: Tallies eight tackles
Sterns recorded eight tackles (five solo) in Saturday's 42-15 loss to the Bills.
Sterns led the team in tackles Saturday, and the 22-year-old continues to make a case for securing the backup strong safety role behind Kareem Jackson. As a rookie in 2021, Sterns proved that he could make impact plays on defense. He'll look to build upon his promising start as a depth piece in the Broncos formidable secondary in 2022.
