- Broncos roster series: No. 48, LS Mitchell Fraboni
Broncos Wire's 90-man offseason roster series continues today with a look at second-year long snapper Mitchell Fraboni , No. 48.
Before the Broncos: Fraboni (6-2, 223 pounds) played college football at Arizona State, winning the starting job midway through his freshman season in 2014. After playing four years with the Sun Devils, Fraboni went undrafted in the 2018 NFL draft. He was invited to a Houston Texans minicamp in 2018 and an Arizona Cardinals minicamp in 2019.

In 2020, Fraboni played a season in The Spring League. Last year, he played for the Pittsburgh Maulers in the USFL in the spring and was signed to Denver's practice squad midway through the 2022 NFL season in the fall.
Broncos tenure: The Broncos signed Fraboni last October and he was later promoted to the active roster and snapped in four games while Jacob Bobenmoyer was sidelined by injury. Denver let Bobenmoyer walk during free agency this spring, a sign that Fraboni did a good enough job in 2022 to earn the full-time gig in 2023.
Chance to make the 53-man roster: Fraboni seems very likely to make the initial 53-man roster this summer. If another long snapper hits the waiver wire that the Broncos like, Fraboni could face some competition. For now, though, Fraboni is the only long snapper on the 90-man offseason roster , so he seems to have strong odds to make the team.
