Broncos Sign Evan Engram in Two-Year $23M Deal for 2025 Offense

Evan Engram is set for a potential rebound season with the Denver Broncos in 2025 after a challenging 2024 marked by injuries. The Broncos signed Engram to a two-year, $23 million deal, with head coach Sean Payton planning to deploy him as the 'joker' in the offense, a versatile role emphasizing run-after-the-catch ability. Engram, who had a career-best 114 receptions in 2023, is expected to be the Broncos' primary receiving threat at tight end and a key target for quarterback Bo Nix. Despite some concerns about his age and injury history, Engram's pairing with Payton, known for maximizing player potential, is viewed as promising. While Engram's blocking remains a weakness, his ability to create mismatches and function as both a big slot receiver and tight end addresses a critical Broncos need. This move fills a void in the Broncos' offense, potentially making Engram an impactful player in their 2025 campaign.
