5 Denver Broncos Heading Into Make-or-Break Seasons in 2015

Peyton Manning Broncos — Another disappointing playoff loss brought some offseason changes for the Denver Broncos, most notably Gary Kubiak replacing John Fox as head coach.

Here are five Broncos' players that are heading into make-or-break seasons in 2015.

Another disappointing playoff loss brought some offseason changes for the Denver Broncos, most notably Gary Kubiak replacing John Fox as head coach.

Here are five Broncos' players that are heading into make-or-break seasons in 2015.

5. TE Virgil Green

5. TE Virgil Green

The Broncos brought Green back with a three-year deal this offseason, and he's in line for a much bigger role with Julius Thomas gone. Owen Daniels is also in the mix at tight end for Denver, but now is the time for Green to take his opportunity and make the most of it.

4. LB Danny Trevathan

4. LB Danny Trevathan

Injuries limited Trevathan to just three games last season, and he was limited early in OTAs as he works his way back from left knee surgery. Entering a contract year, Trevathan needs to get back to full strength and be as productive as he was in 2013 (129 total tackles).

3. DT Sylvester Williams

Williams is expected to replaced the departed Terrance Knighton as the Broncos' starting nose tackle. It's time for the 2013 first-round pick to step up, and the opportunity to do so is now in front of him.

2. QB Peyton Manning

Manning will have to embrace some changes under Kubiak, most notably the likelihood of a more run-heavy offense. With clear physical limitations that surface toward the end of each season now, this year may be Manning's last realistic chance to win a Super Bowl.

1. RB Montee Ball

1. RB Montee Ball

An emergency appendectomy in August derailed the start of last year for Ball, then a groin injury eventually ended his season. C.J. Anderson is penciled in as Denver's No. 1 running back right now, but now that he is healthy Ball needs to make a strong case for a significant role.
