The Denver Broncos are trading for a former second-overall draft pick at the quarterback position.
Denver Broncos Add Quarterback
The Denver Broncos are adding former second-overall pick Zach Wilson in a trade with the New York Jets.
The trade is proposed to be a swap of Wilson and a 7th-round pick to the Broncos for a 6th overall pick.
The Jets are also expected to split Wilson’s $5.5 million of his salary for the 2024 season. Wilson may also restructure his contract after officially joining the Broncos.

Denver Broncos Quarterback Depth Chart
The Broncos have only Jarrett Stidham and Ben DiNucci on their roster heading into the 2024 season. Depending on how they handle the NFL Draft this upcoming week, the move to add Wilson will at least be a projected depth chart addition.
The Broncos are thought to be one of the many teams drafting a quarterback in the 2024 NFL draft, but this could leave them waiting on a quarterback in later rounds.
