Robert Tonyan, Tight End

Sometimes, the most under-the-radar players can make all the difference. Robert Tonyan could be just that if the stars align for the Broncos this offseason.

Tonyan is a big-bodied, physically imposing tight end at 6-foot-5 and 237 pounds. He had a breakout season in 2020, posting 580 receiving yards and 11 touchdowns on 52 receptions. Tonyan is set to become an unrestricted free agent and could be a potential piece of the puzzle for the new-look Broncos.

Tonyan is not the most known commodity, but could be a valuable depth piece for the Broncos and could add some familiarity to the tight end room. Especially if a certain quarterback is acquired by the Broncos.
