Bo Nix has himself a new weapon.

ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports the Denver Broncos are acquiring wide receiver Jaylen Waddle from the Miami Dolphins.

Along with Waddle, the Broncos will receive the Dolphins’ fourth-round pick in 2026. Going the other way is the 30th overall selection of the 2026 NFL Draft, as well as picks in the third and fourth round.

Waddle, 27, had spent the entirety of his five-year NFL career with the Dolphins, who originally selected him with the sixth overall pick of the 2021 NFL Draft out of Alabama.

A native of Houston, Waddle appeared in 16 games in 2025. He hauled in 64 receptions for 910 yards and six touchdowns.

For his career, Waddle has 373 receptions for 5,039 yards and 26 TDs in 78 games.

Waddle now joins a receiving corps that includes Courtland Sutton, Troy Franklin and Marvin Mims Jr.
