The biggest question facing every WNBA team in training camp
WNBA training camps open with key questions for each team.
The Denver Broncos are identified as a top potential destination for Pro Bowl tight end Kyle Pitts, who recently signed his franchise tag with the Atlanta Falcons. As the Broncos seek to improve their tight end position, Pitts' veteran experience could be pivotal for their offense.
Going into the 2026 NFL season, the Denver Broncos are not short on talent, and there are very few areas of improvement. However, Bleacher Report's Moe Morton thinks there could be a player who may be available via trade late in the draft.
Atlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts signed his franchise tag last week in time for Falcons workouts to begin. The one-year buffer gives Atlanta time to figure out a long-term deal while Pitts participates in offseason workouts.
It could also pave the way for a trade, if the numbers don't work out. Morton gave five teams who could benefit from Pitts' veteran leadership, and the No. 1 team on Morton's list was the Broncos.
"Entering his age-32 campaign, Evan Engram isn't the long-term starter at tight end in Denver," Morton wrote for B/R. "At this stage in his career, he's a serviceable pass-catcher but lacks a presence in the red zone. The nine-year pro has one touchdown reception in back-to-back seasons. Pitts has struggled to find the end zone in his first five seasons with the Falcons, but his touchdown production is slowly trending in the right direction. Every year in the league, he's upped his season scoring total by one.Ā Perhaps Broncos offensive-minded head coach Sean Payton can unlock Pitts' full potential in a revamped offense."
Pitts signing his tag might signal that he's content to remain in Atlanta, but tag-and-trade deals have happened in the past, so such a scenario is at least possible in theory. However, Broncos general manager George Paton has expressed his desire for the Broncos to get younger and cheaper. Pitts' tag is a one-year, fully guaranteed $15.045 million deal. Although Denver is in a Super Bowl window to win right now, they are also looking to build a long-term contender for years down the road, and a Pitts trade might not be practical.
