The Denver Broncos met with Devin Neal at the Senior Bowl last month, the Kansas running back confirmed during his media availability in Mobile, Alabama, via Cecil Lammey and Andrew Mason of DenverSports.com.
Neal (5-11, 220 pounds) earned second-team All-Big 12 honors in each of the last two seasons after rushing for 16 touchdowns both in 2023 and 2024. In four years with the Jayhawks, Neal rushed 760 times for 4,343 yards and 49 touchdowns in 49 games.
Neal, 21, also totaled 77 receptions for 711 yards and four scores at the college level. He’s now entering the NFL draft and mock drafts have him projected going off the board in the fourth round.
Javonte Williams is scheduled to become a free agent in March, and running back appears to be one of Denver’s big positions of need this offseason. Neal could be a mid-round target for the Broncos, who still hold their own pick in the fourth round.
The 2025 NFL draft will be held in Green Bay from April 24-26.
