— Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) March 17, 2026Waddle spent the first 5 years of his NFL career with the Dolphins. He began his career with 3 consecutive 1,000+ receiving yard seasons, but has tailed off over the past couple of years due to Tua Tagovailoa’s injury and consistency issues.
In 2025, Waddle caught 64 of his 100 targets for 910 yards and 6 touchdowns.
Denver will be hoping Waddle can get back to his peak, which came in 2022. That year, he went for 1,356 receiving yards and was arguably the best deep threat in football. He led the NFL with over 18 yards per reception in 2022.
Waddle joins a Broncos offense that’s led by quarterback Bo Nix. Denver runs a pass-heavy scheme, as Nix led the NFL in pass attempts during his 2025 campaign.
The Broncos went 14-3 in 2025 and earned the No. 1 seed in the AFC, but lost in the playoffs after Nix suffered a season-ending injury. Denver will have Super Bowl aspirations once again this upcoming season and Waddle will be a big part of those efforts.
