Denver

Broncos

It’s a veteran’s minimum contract, which is as good as 28-year-old (in April) Humphrey could have hoped for. Only sporadically productive but perennially valued by Broncos coach Sean Payton, Humphrey is a role player’s role player. The mammoth target has caught more than 20 passes one time in his career, and seems unlikely to add a second such campaign in 2026.

A former “Sean Payton Saint,” Prentice made his way to Denver last season where he spent the full year serving as lead blocker. Nothing is ever easy for a fullback, but re-upping at this point of the offseason suggests Prentice should be able to maintain his 53-man roster spot.

Henningsen appeared in all 34 games for the Broncos in 2022 and 2023 before spending 2024 on the practive squad and missing the entirety of the 2025 season with an Achilles injury. He has not made a professional start and has notched just 40 total tackles, making the signing a pure depth move at present. The financials of the deal were not immediately made available.

Krull must still pass a physical. The 27-year-old tight end suffered a Jones fracture last season and was placed on injured reserve in early October. He resumed practicing in January, but did not resume playing. In three games last season, he caught 2-of-4 targets for 15 yards. He is not relevant in fantasy.

After starting all 15 games he appeared in during the 2024 season, Locke made just three starts in 16 games last season, totaling 16 tackles and three pass breakups. The former UDFA became a major contributor for the Broncos in 2023 when he emerged to total 53 tackles, three sacks and five pass. Locke will join former Broncos DB coach Christian Parker in Dallas, and is capable of lining up from multiple spots. Even if he doesn’t earn a “starting” role in Dallas, Locke will likely see plenty of work for the Cowboys next season.

The deal includes $11 million guaranteed. Singelton led Denver with 135 total tackles in 2025. He also notched one sack, four pass breakups, and a forced fumble. He missed a single game to undergo surgery for testicular cancer. One game. NFL players are indeed “built different.” Singleton wears the green dot on defense, meaning he relays the play-calls from the sidelines to the field. Now back in Denver for two more seasons, he will resume that role in 2026.

The move clears $6 million in cap space. The 28-year-old is getting cut one season into a “three-year” deal. As was the case his final few campaigns in San Francisco, Greenlaw suffered through an injury-marred year in Denver, making just eight appearances. Greenlaw still made a play-making impact when on the field. It just wasn’t often enough for Sean Payton and company. Provided he can pass a physical right now, Greenlaw should still land guaranteed money for 2026.

Dobbins was on pace for a career-year in Denver before a foot injury sidelined him for the final seven games of the regular season. In 10 games, Dobbins rushed 153 times for 772 yards and four touchdowns while adding another 11-37-0 through the air. When healthy, the 27-year-old running back was unquestioned RB1, earning 28 percent of the team’s backfield opportunities compared to RJ Harvey’s 13 percent, while also handling 57 percent of the team’s carries. His return undoubtedly puts a cap on Harvey’s rushing upside entering next season, but Harvey should retain some value as a pass-catcher and remains a high-end handcuff while playing behind a player with a lengthy injury history. NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero reports Dobbins will get $8 million guaranteed out of his two-year, $20 million deal.

One of the premier pass-rushers on the open market is now heading to Tennessee. Franklin-Myers will receive $42 million in guaranteed money on his new deal and reunite with Robert Saleh, with whom he spent three seasons during their time with the Jets. Franklin-Myers has totaled 14.5 sacks and 14 TFLs over the last two seasons while racking up 65 tackles. He’s played primarily on pass downs over that span, but could see more usage now that he’s back with Saleh.

Ehlinger signed with the Broncos last offseason but didn’t make their final roster. He chose to stay on the team’s practice squad despite receiving 53-man roster offers from other teams. He bounced between the practice squad and the active roster throughout the year. With teams reportedly calling Denver about Jarrett Stidham, the Broncos are keeping Ehlinger around as a potential QB2 option should they choose to move their current backup.
