What happened: The Denver Broncos have received trade interest in tight end Evan Engram ahead of Tuesday's 4 p.m. ET trade deadline, per ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. Denver is considered unlikely to part with Engram because the offense lacks an established replacement at the position. The Broncos have made exploratory calls around the league for tight end depth as a precaution.
Why it matters: Denver enters Tuesday atop the AFC playoff race with a 7-2 record, making offensive continuity crucial as the team heads into its bye week. Parting with a primary pass-catcher would disrupt an offense that has won five straight games. Meanwhile, rival front offices seeking tight end additions have also monitored low-cost options like Ja'Tavion Sanders.
By the numbers: Engram has caught 17 passes for 169 yards and one touchdown in 2026 through nine games. Denver currently holds the AFC's second seed at 7-2.
What to watch: The NFL trade deadline closes at 4 p.m. ET on Tuesday, Nov. 10. Denver enters its Week 10 bye before returning for the stretch run.
