2025 Fantasy Outlook
Adkins finished the 2024 season with just 14 catches on 15 targets for 115 yards and three touchdowns, appearing in all 17 regular season games. Despite finding some success with his limited opportunities, the 25-year-old will likely face a tougher path to meaningful playing time in 2025 with the Broncos' signing Evan Engram this offseason. Engram will undoubtedly operate as Denver's top pass-catching tight end, leaving Adkins to compete with Adam Trautman and Lucas Krull for backup snaps. Read Past Outlooks
Won't play at Las Vegas
Adkins (knee) is officially listed as out for Sunday's game against the Raiders, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Adkins did not participate at practice at all during the week, as he continues to tend to a knee injury he suffered in Week 8 versus the Cowboys. Adam Trautman and two-time Pro Bowler Evan Engram are currently the only two healthy tight ends on Denver's 53-man roster.

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.
