The Denver Broncos preseason officially gets underway with rookies reporting to training camp on July 22.
While the main concern will be the status of quarterback Bo Nixs ankle, there will also be plenty of attention on newcomer Jaylen Waddle.
After spending the first five seasons of his career with the Miami Dolphins, wide receiver Waddle was traded to Denver as a part of a house-cleaning effort in south Florida.
Despite being held below 1,000-yards for the last two seasons, Waddle has been both a reliable and explosive receiving option his entire career.
Hes yet to play fewer than 14 games in a season and his 13.5 yards-per-catch are 17th-most among active players, while his 18.1 YPC in 2021 led the league.
You cant replace speed.
Thats just what he brings to the table, Nix said of Waddle, per Jared Koch of the Denver Broncos on SI.
Hes extremely fast with the ball in his hands.
He looks like he doesnt really slow down when he makes cuts.
Waddle totaled 373 receptions for 5,039 yards and 26 touchdowns in his five seasons with the Dolphins, the majority of which were spent alongside Tyreek Hill and catching balls from Tua Tagovailoa.
