According to Aaron Wilson, Broncos TE Albert Okwuegbunam is drawing some trade interest from other teams.
Okwuegbunam was a healthy scratch this past Monday and hasn’t really distinguished himself in a crowded position room so far in 2022.
His name has come up in trade rumors earlier this week as well.
Okwuegbunam, 24, was a three-year starter at Missouri and earned second-team All-SEC honors in 2017. The Broncos selected him with the No. 118 pick in the fourth round of the 2020 NFL Draft.
Okwuegbunam is in the third year of a four-year, $4,044,042 rookie contract that included a $749,042 signing bonus.
In 2022, Okwuegbunam has appeared in five games for the Broncos and caught seven passes on 11 targets for 50 yards receiving and no touchdowns.
