Jonathon Cooper Returns to Practice with Denver Broncos

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. , Denver Broncos outside linebacker Jonathon Cooper has returned to the team after being removed from the commissioner’s exempt list. Cooper, who faced two domestic violence arrests in June, was barred from practicing or playing in the team’s first six games of the season. He recently confirmed that his criminal trial has been pushed from November to March, prompting the NFL’s decision.

Cooper expressed remorse and accountability, declining to discuss case details but acknowledging the seriousness of the allegations and the concerns of the fans. He admitted, ‘No excuses on my end… I do hold myself accountable.’ He reassured that the legal process would resolve these matters.

The Broncos are now faced with a decision on whether to activate Cooper in time for upcoming games, as his absence due to the exempt list means potential implications for league discipline. Meanwhile, Cooper continues to attend mandated therapy as part of conditions set by the Broncos, emphasizing his commitment to ongoing improvement.
