Dothan, AL, October 16, 2026 —
Denver Broncos pass rusher Jonathon Cooper has been removed from the commissioner’s exempt list and is eligible to play in the team’s next game. The NFL’s personal conduct review of Cooper remains pending.
The change in Cooper’s status makes him eligible to play, but it does not mean the league’s review has concluded. The available information does not specify when he was removed from the list or when the review is expected to be completed.
No details were provided about the matter being reviewed, the circumstances surrounding Cooper’s placement on the exempt list, or whether the league has set a timeline for further action. The information also does not identify the date or opponent for the Broncos’ next game.
As a result, Cooper’s eligibility for that game is established, while the outcome of the NFL review remains unresolved. No decision or additional disciplinary action was reported.
