Broncos make trade for Dolphins wideout
According to several reports, the Miami Dolphins and Denver Broncos have quietly agreed to a deal that would send wide receiver Jaylen Waddle to the Broncos.
This is what NFL insider Tom Pelissero posted on X about the deal between the two teams.
Full trade: Broncos get Waddle and the Dolphins’ 4th-round pick (11th in round) in this year’s draft. Dolphins get: 1st round pick (30th overall) along with late 3rd and 4th round picks (30th in each round) in this year’s draft.

There have been rumors circulating for weeks that Waddle may be traded and that Waddle was unhappy in Miami, a charge he denies.
Waddle was former Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa's favorite target once Tyreek Hill was injured.
Waddle caught 64 passes for 910 yards and six touchdowns, while averaging 14.2 yards per catch.
The Broncos are getting a good quality wide receiver who was known for his speed coming out of college. The Dolphins receive a 4th-round draft pick, which they could use to draft another wide receiver.
The trade also reunites former Alabama teammates Waddle and all-pro defensive back Patrick Surtain Jr. The two are very close friends, which may explain why Waddle ended up in Denver.
The Broncos are clearly ready to make a run at the Super Bowl again this year and seem poised to load up on the offensive side of the ball to make it happen.
