Sticking around Denver
Adkins and the Broncos agreed on a one-year contract Sunday, Parker Gabriel of The Denver Post reports.
ANALYSIS
Adkins will remain in Denver for a fourth season after having caught six of 11 targets for 48 yards and a touchdown over nine regular-season contests in 2025. The tight end likely will continue to have limited upside on offense next season, operating behind the likes of Evan Engram and Adam Trautman, the latter of whom inked a three-year deal with the Broncos on Sunday.

2024 Fantasy Outlook
Adkins joined the Broncos as an undrafted free agent during the 2023 offseason and appeared in 10 games as a rookie. The 25-year-old tight end was minimally involved on offense, catching four of his five targets for 22 yards while playing just 57 offensive snaps. Adkins was more involved on special teams, as he played 97 special teams snaps in 2023. If the 6-foot-3, 252-pounder makes the 53-man roster, he'd likely play a similar role as a special teams contributor in 2024. Ahead of him on the tight end depth chart are Greg Dulcich, Adam Trautman, and Lucas Krull.
