Denver Broncos

Cushenberry was selected by the Denver Broncos with the 83rd overall pick in the third round of the 2020 NFL Draft.[11] Cushenberry was named the Broncos starting center going into his rookie season.[12] He made his NFL debut on September 14, 2020 when he started in the season opener against the Tennessee Titans. Cushenberry finished his rookie season starting all 16 games and playing in every single offensive snap.[13]

On November 8, 2022, Cushenberry was placed on injured reserve after suffering a groin strain.[14] According to Cushenberry, Denver “kept him on IR after he had recovered from his groin injury," and the Broncos did not reactivate him because he was third string.[15]

Tennessee Titans

On March 14, 2024, Cushenberry signed a four-year contract with the Tennessee Titans.[16][17]
