Terrific stuff from @bylucaevans

What happened: Newly acquired wide receiver Jaylen Waddle reportedly shared a welcoming dinner with quarterback Bo Nix and running back J.K. Dobbins upon his arrival in Denver. The gathering included General Manager George Paton and Offensive Coordinator Davis Webb, highlighting a unified effort to integrate the former Dolphin into Sean Payton’s complex offensive system.

Why it matters: The Broncos traded a first-round pick for Waddle in March to provide Nix with a premier vertical threat. His presence as a 'force multiplier' is expected to open the field for the running game and veteran teammates while accelerating the development of the team's young core.

What to watch: Training camp will provide the first full look at the chemistry between Nix and Waddle. Fans will also monitor how Waddle's recent contract restructure affects Denver's ability to add veteran depth before the 2026 season.
