It's March 17th, here's your NFL news in two minutes. The Denver Broncos traded for Miami Dolphins Y Receiver Jalen Wado on Tuesday and took on the rest of his contract. Waddle signed a three-year extension worth $84,750,000 back in 2024 when he had two. Seasons left on his rookie deal plus a fifth-year option. That extension now covers 2026 through 2028 for Denver. This deal gives the Broncos a low cap hit right away. This season, Waddle counts just $4,908,000 against the cap. Next year in 2027, it jumps to $27,083,000, then $30,457,000 in 2028. Fans and analysts see this as, team-friendly, especially with guarantees of $17,000,000,000 this year, and $15,200,000 in 2027. Fans call it more like a two-year, $41,200,000 packed, with an optional third season and an

out clause. The Broncos restructured two contracts last week to make room, and they still have about $18,000,000 in cap space left. That means they could chase more free agents or other deals this offseason. Overall, this positions Denver well for the future, without breaking the bank, keeping flexibility for bigger moves ahead.
