Following the 2024 NFL draft, the Denver Broncos signed 14 undrafted free agents. The team has already parted ways with five of those UDFAs, waiving defensive back Cam Allen, punter Nik Constantinou, wide receiver Lincoln Victor and linebacker Alec Mock. Denver also reached an injury settlement with tight end Dylan Leonard.
Nine UDFAs remain on the team, plus UFL signee Dondrea Tillman, who is entering his first season in the NFL. That leaves the Broncos with 10 undrafted “rookies” competing to make the 53-man roster this summer.
Among the team’s UDFAs, offensive tackle Frank Crum probably has the best shot to end up on the active roster. Crum was expected to be drafted in April and he’ll get a real opportunity to win a backup swing tackle job this summer.
Broncos rookie running back Blake Watson is another sleeper to watch, as is defensive back Omar Brown. Crum, Watson and Brown were three of the top UDFAs available this spring, and each of their contracts included $250,000 guaranteed.
Denver has an impressive history of UDFAs making the 53-man roster. So, which player(s) will make the squad in 2024? Here’s our best guess of how the 2024 UDFAs stack up going into training camp.

*Tillman went from college to The Spring League to the Birmingham Stallions. After three years with the Stallions, Tillman signed with the Broncos this spring. He went undrafted in 2020 and this will mark his first season in the NFL, so we’re counting him among the 2024 UDFAs, but he’s a unique scenario.

TE Thomas Yassmin*

*As part of the NFL’s International Player Pathway program, Yassmin does not count against the 90-man offseason roster this summer. If he makes the practice squad, he would not count against the 16-player practice squad limit during the season.
