Jonathon Cooper Removed From NFL Commissioner’s Exempt List

Elmira, NY, October 16, 2026 —

Denver Broncos pass rusher Jonathon Cooper has been removed from the NFL commissioner’s exempt list and is eligible to play, according to the information provided. The league’s personal conduct review remains ongoing.

Cooper’s removal makes him eligible to play, but it does not mean the NFL review has concluded. No further details about the review or its status were provided. The information also does not state when Cooper was removed from the list or when the league began its review.

It was not specified whether Cooper is expected to play in an upcoming game, and no decision by the Broncos about his playing status was included. Eligibility means he can play; the available information does not establish whether he will take the field.

The details underlying the NFL’s review, including the conduct being examined, were not provided. No statement from Cooper, the Broncos or the league was included, and no information was given about any potential outcome or timing for the review.

For now, the two reported developments are that Cooper is no longer on the commissioner’s exempt list and is eligible to play, while the league’s personal conduct review continues. Further information about the review and Cooper’s status with the team was not provided.
