Roach signed a three-year, $29.25 million contract extension with the Broncos on Wednesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports. Roach was set to hit free agency following the 2025 season, but he's now inked an extension to remain in Denver through 2028. The veteran defensive lineman from Texas has flourished with the Broncos, recording 64 total tackles, including 4.5 sacks, two passes defensed and one forced fumble across 23 regular-season games in the past two seasons. Following Wednesday's extension, he's expected to remain an integral part of Denver's defensive line for years to come.

Roach finished with three tackles (two solo), including 1.0 sacks, in Thursday's 10-7 win over the Raiders. The defensive tackle also played 45 percent of the defensive snaps, a rotational role he's been filling since returning to the lineup in October. Roach has 19 tackles (six solo), including 2.0 sacks, on the year in total.

Roach (calf) is active for Sunday's game against the Jets in London, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports. Suiting up for the first time all season after being reinstated from injured reserve Saturday, Roach projects to fill a rotational role along Denver's defensive line in Week 6. Over his 17 regular-season appearances with Denver in 2025, Roach recorded 2.5 sacks among his 43 tackles and was credited with a forced fumble and fumble recovery.

The Broncos activated Roach (calf) from injured reserve Saturday, Chris Tomasson of The Denver Gazette reports. Roach opened the regular season on injured reserve due to a calf injury. He was a full participant in the final two practices of the week after being designated to return Wednesday, so his reinstatement off IR indicates that he is on track to make his 2025 debut against the Jets on Sunday in London, England. Roach tallied 43 tackles (18 solo), including 2.5 sacks, two pass defenses, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery across 17 regular-season games in 2024.

Roach (calf) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Jets, head coach Sean Payton said Friday, Zac Stevens of DNVR Sports reports. Payton added that Roach is "doing well." In order to make his season debut Sunday against the Jets in London, Roach would first have to be activated from injured reserve. He was designated to return from IR on Wednesday, opening up a three-week window for the Broncos to activate the defensive tackle.
