Broncos acquire linebacker Henley ahead of NFL trade deadline
Summary

The Denver Broncos made a single trade before the NFL's 2026 deadline, acquiring linebacker Daiyan Henley from the Los Angeles Chargers. In exchange, the Broncos gave up a 2027 fourth-round pick and a 2028 fifth-round pick. Despite interest in bolstering their roster, particularly at the running back position, Denver's only move was the acquisition of Henley, leaving them with nine projected picks for the 2027 NFL Draft. The Broncos now enter their bye week and will host the Las Vegas Raiders following the break.
