Nate Adkins Finds End Zone Against Jets

Sunday, October 12, 1:28 PM

Denver Broncos tight end Nate Adkins scored his first touchdown of the season on Sunday to help his team defeat the New York Jets 13-11 in London. The third-year tight end finished the day having caught both of his targets for 23 yards, and his 16-yard scoring connection with quarterback Bo Nix proved to be the only touchdown of the game. Even with his first touchdown in the books, Adkins has just four catches on the season. Behind fellow tight end Evan Engram, who led the team in targets on Sunday, Adkins is unlikely to receive enough volume to be considered for fantasy lineups going forward.

Broncos Select Dallen Bentley with 256th Pick

Saturday, April 25, 3:56 PM

The Denver Broncos have selected Utah tight end Dallen Bentley with the 256th overall pick in the seventh round of the 2026 NFL Draft. Tight end was considered a major need for the 2025 AFC West champions, and after spending a fifth-round pick on NC State's Justin Joly, the Broncos doubled up at the position. After making only three catches across his first two seasons at Utah, Bentley was one of the team's leading receivers in 2025, finishing his final season with 620 yards and six touchdowns on 48 receptions. While not a dominant blocker, he has the traits of an NFL tight end and has a real chance to make the team as the final offensive player selected in 2026. With Denver holding the final two picks of the draft, Bentley also has some claim to split the Mr. Irrelevant title with new teammate Red Murdock.
