Recent rankings magnify Evan Engram's poor 2025 season with Broncos

Recent rankings magnify Evan Engram's poor 2025 season with Broncos says Denver’s offseason signing of Evan Engram for two years has not translated into production expectations. In 2025 with the Broncos, Engram recorded 50 receptions for 461 yards and one touchdown, and the article notes that an ESPN ranking exercise left him off the list of top tight ends. ESPN asked NFL executives, coaches, and scouts to rank players at each position; for tight ends, the top group included Brock Bowers, Trey McBride, Tyler Warren, and Colston Loveland, with Travis Kelce also appearing in the top 10. Engram did not receive votes, despite the season before in which he caught 114 passes for the Jaguars before signing with Denver. The piece frames 2026 as a test for his role as the team’s TE1, after the Broncos drafted Justin Joly and Dallen Bentley. It cites that Engram had eight games in 2025 with two catches or fewer, and contrasts that with his 2023 total.
