Brandon McManus has owned the Broncos’ kickoff and field goal duties for the better part of the last five seasons.

Will it continue in 2019?

The Broncos will begin training camp on July 18 with two kickers: McManus and Taylor Bertolet.

“I’ve had another kicker in camp with me every other year,” McManus said. “It’s nothing that I’m not used to and it’s always good to have someone competing against you. And it’s not just (Bertolet). There are 31 other jobs out there and a bunch of others kicking as well.”

It doesn’t appear McManus’ job is in any jeopardy. He made all 18 of his field-goal attempts last season between 20 and 49 yards and kicked game-winners versus the Raiders and at the Chargers. But McManus also missed five of his seven attempts from 50-plus yards, such as when Denver trailed Houston by 2 and McManus went wide-right from 51 yards out as the game clock expired. McManus finished the season ranked No. 26 in the NFL for field goal percentage (.80). Related Articles 🔊 Broncos podcast: Previewing Denver’s must-win Week 3 home showdown against Tampa Bay

Coach Vic Fangio called McManus the “obvious incumbent” and that Bertolet “would have to knock him out like in a heavyweight battle.”

Bertolet, a three-year starter at Texas A&M, went undrafted in 2016 and spent time with the Broncos in OTAs last season. He most recently played for the Salt Lake Stallions of the now-defunct Alliance of American Football and connected on 9-of-14 field-goal attempts with a long of 54 yards. The Broncos signed Bertolet in April.

“Both of those kickers are competing very, very hard right now and I like what they are doing,” special teams coordinator Tom McMahon said.
