Thursday’s Orange & Blue Today digs into one of the biggest lingering questions on offense: is the Broncos tight end room actually good enough.

At the top, Evan Engram is the primary pass‑catching threat — but last year showed he may simply be who he is at this stage of his career. Can he be better in 2026. Can he ever become Sean Payton’s true “joker” weapon, or is that role still missing from the roster.

Behind him, Adam Trautman remains the trusted veteran blocker who keeps the offense on schedule. The Broncos also kept rookie Dallen Bentley, a seventh‑round pick who projects as a future Trautman‑type player — maybe with more upside than originally expected. Nate Adkins provides versatility and reliability in multiple roles.

And then there’s Caleb Lohner — the 2025 seventh‑rounder who made the team but starts the season on IR‑designated to return. He’s a massive project with real athletic upside, but he’s done little so far due to injuries. Is he the key to this group being better than expected. If so, when could he realistically be out there helping the Broncos.

This TE room has stability, youth, and potential — but does it have enough juice.
