Broncos Journal: Why Denver is relying on a tight end with zero NFL catches to boost its passing-game production from the position

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 12:56:30 GMT

It’s not exactly breaking news that the Broncos have struggled to generate receiving production from the tight end position this year.There’s a logical explanation, too. The team hoped second-year man Greg Dulcich would build on his promising but injury-plagued rookie season and take the next step into being a dynamic down-the-field threat.Instead, the injuries got worse. Dulcich has played only in parts of two games so far this year and remains on injured reserve, where he’s been since Week 6.Two striking developments:• Dulcich is still No. 2 among Broncos tight ends in receiving yards at 25, behind Adam Trautman’s 131 but ahead of Nate Adkins (22) and Chris Manhertz (16).• The Broncos have decided that their best hope of juicing the production through the air is practice squad-er Lucas Krull, a second-year player who has zero NFL catches to his name.Perhaps Krull will end up just serving as a bridge while the Broncos try to get Dulcich back into game action. Dulcich has been doing...
