Lucas Krull, Broncos Re-Sign Lucas Krull

The Denver Broncos re-signed exclusive-rights free-agent tight end Lucas Krull to an undisclosed deal on Monday, according to KPRC's Aaron Wilson. Krull will return for a third season in Denver after catching a career-high 19 passes on 23 targets for 152 yards and no touchdowns in 13 regular-season games (two starts) in 2024. In his first year with the Broncos in 2023, the 26-year-old had only eight catches on 14 targets for 95 yards and his first career touchdown in seven games (two starts). Krull will remain well off the fantasy radar and will head to training camp this summer as tight end depth behind newcomer Evan Engram and Adam Trautman while competing with Nate Adkins. He debuted in the NFL with the New Orleans Saints in 2022 and didn't receive any targets in just one game played after going undrafted out of Pittsburgh.

Courtland Sutton, 'No Timeline' On Courtland Sutton Extension

Denver Broncos head coach Sean Payton notes that there is "no timeline" on a new deal for veteran wide receiver Courtland Sutton. The 29-year-old will still be at the team's offseason program. Broncos general manager George Paton reported that any contract extension talks would occur after the draft. Sutton is entering the final year of a four-year contract and carries a cap hit of $20.2 million. He performed well last year with the expedited ascension of rookie QB Bo Nix, capping 1,000 yards (1,081) for the first time since 2019 and notching the highest reception total of his career (81). Whether the SMU alum will be as effective another year older in 2025 remains to be seen -- particularly for a player who doesn't get much separation. Still, Denver hasn't added much in terms of offensive weaponry besides tight end Evan Engram in free agency. Sutton should again be Nix's primary target, barring a big move in the draft.

Zach Wilson, Zach Wilson Still Views Himself As A Starter

Last week, Miami Dolphins quarterback Zach Wilson told the Associated Press that he still believes he can start. "I still believe I can be a starter in this league whenever that opportunity comes, and so I just try to put myself in the best situation...and do the absolute best that I can." It hasn't panned out for the 25-year-old since the New York Jets selected him second overall in the 2021 NFL Draft. Wilson was abysmal during his time as a Jet, but the team didn't do him any favors. After spending 2024 as a Bronco under head coach Sean Payton, the BYU product claims he learned much despite not seeing the field and plans to continue learning more under new head coach Mike McDaniel. "What's not to like?" he said. "You've seen how Tua's development has gone since he's been there. I'm just excited to be with those guys." Ideally, the Dolphins won't need to call upon Wilson's services in 2025. Though, if they do, it appears his confidence has grown in leaps and bounds.

Michael Burton, Michael Burton Back With Broncos

The Denver Broncos are re-signing fullback Michael Burton for the 2025 campaign, according to team reporter Zac Stevens. Burton was originally a fifth-round pick by the Detroit Lions in 2015 out of Rutgers and has spent time with the Lions, Bears, Saints, Redskins, Chiefs, and Broncos. He reunited with Sean Payton in Denver in 2023 and is back for his third season with the organization. The 33-year-old is primarily utilized as a pure blocker, but he has compiled 42 carries for 79 yards and two touchdowns in 147 career games. He's hauled in 31 receptions for 196 yards and two scores as a receiver. In 2025, he could be blocking for a highly-drafted rookie running back like North Carolina's Omarion Hampton or Ohio State's TreVeyon Henderson.

Lil'jordan Humphrey, Giants Sign Big Wideout Lil'Jordan Humphrey To One-Year Deal

The New York Giants are signing former Denver Broncos wide receiver Lil'Jordan Humphrey to an undisclosed one-year deal on Friday, a source tells ESPN's Adam Schefter. Humphrey joins a Giants team after spending the last two seasons in Denver, catching 44 total passes on 64 targets for 455 yards and four touchdowns. He was much more involved last year and set career-highs in receptions (31), targets (45) and receiving yards (293) while scoring once in 17 regular-season games (seven starts). The 26-year-old's best asset is his size (6-foot-4, 225 pounds), but he's unlikely to be much more than the team's No. 4 pass-catcher behind Malik Nabers, Wan'Dale Robinson and Darius Slayton. The only quarterback currently on New York's roster is Tommy DeVito, too. However, the addition of a big downfield threat like Humphrey could mean the G-Men are getting close to adding veteran QB Russell Wilson.
