Jaylen Waddle joins Broncos to enhance offensive capabilities
Summary

The Denver Broncos acquired Jaylen Waddle from the Miami Dolphins ahead of the 2026 season. Waddle is expected to provide the team with a significant deep-ball threat, which was lacking in their offense last year. Quarterback Bo Nix, while effective, finished 15th in QBR and was 28th in yards per attempt during the 2025 season. Waddle's addition could unlock more potential in Nix's performance and facilitate a more dynamic Broncos offense, as the team seeks to improve from their previous campaign. Nix is anticipated to be ready for training camp after recovering from an ankle injury.
