Broncos position preview for 2023: Wide receiver

Wide receiver seems to be one of the Broncos’ deepest positions ahead of training camp.

After trading up in the second round of the NFL draft to select Oklahoma’s Marvin Mims in April, the Denver Broncos now have 12 wide receivers on the 90-man offseason roster: Jerry Jeudy, Tim Patrick, Courtland Sutton, Mims, Kendall Hinton, Jalen Virgil, Marquez Callaway, Brandon Johnson, KJ Hamler, Montrell Washington, Taylor Grimes and Lil’Jordan Humphrey.

Barring a trade, Jeudy, Patrick, Sutton and Mims all seem to be locks for the 53-man roster. If the Broncos only carry six wide receivers on the active roster, that would only leave two more spots for nine WRs competing for a job.

Denver will have to make some tough decisions at WR this summer. Here’s a quick look at how the team’s (projected) WR depth chart stacks up ahead of training camp next month.
