Tight End

Roster count: Three (17 total)

Check out our full tight end position preview here.

Jeff Heuerman
Jake Butt
Troy Fumagalli

The roster is going to be structured according to the Broncos’ offensive personnel trends, and I think they will use some two-tight end formations this season but perhaps not as much as in years past.

The group of Heuerman, Butt, and Fumagalli is a versatile one, all offering the ability to play in-line as blockers and also help the team in the passing game.

The Broncos can keep an emergency tight end on the practice squad in this scenario.
