Broncos’ Evan Engram Draws Trade Interest Before Deadline

The 7-2 Denver Broncos are weighing their options before the NFL trade deadline on November 10, with tight end Evan Engram among the players drawing interest. The 32-year-old is not expected to be moved, in part because Denver has no clear substitute, though the team has made calls about possible replacements.

Denver has been exploring the tight end market. Arizona’s Trey McBride is not available, and Detroit has indicated Sam LaPorta is not for trade. Engram is in his second season with Denver on a two-year, $23 million deal. He had 50 catches for 461 yards and a touchdown in 2025.

Engram has had a smaller role this season, but caught four of five targets for 33 yards in Denver’s 26-21 win over Carolina. Rookie Dallen Bentley has been inactive throughout the season, while Adam Trautman and Nate Adkins are primarily blocking tight ends. Engram has also played more in-line this year than in his usual mismatch-oriented role.

Denver has reportedly shown more interest in tight ends and safeties than running backs. The deadline is set for 2 p.m. MDT on November 10.
