2025 Fantasy Outlook
Krull failed to stand out in Denver’s unimpressive tight end room last season, securing 19 of 23 targets for 152 yards. He had only eight catches in the preceding campaign, during which Krull also scored his lone NFL touchdown to date. Offseason addition Evan Engram is expected to get the majority of pass catching opportunities at the position for the Broncos, and Adam Trautman will likely continue to work ahead of Krull due to Trautman’s dependable blocking, so the 27-year-old Krull doesn’t have a clear path to fantasy relevance in 2025.

Signed a one-year, $1.03 million contract with the Broncos in March of 2025.
Back with Denver
Krull re-signed with the Broncos on Monday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
ANALYSIS
Krull -- who entered the offseason as an exclusive-rights free agent -- was tendered a contract by the Broncos last month. Now that he's officially been re-signed, he'll reprise his depth role in a Denver tight end corps that now will be led by newcomer Evan Engram, with Adam Trautman and Nate Adkins also in the mix. In 13 regular-season contests with the Broncos in 2024, Krull posted a 19-152-0 line on 23 targets.

2024 Fantasy Outlook
Krull didn’t have an NFL catch until Week 14 of last season, but he showed some promising pass catching ability down the stretch, turning 12 targets into eight catches for 95 yards and a touchdown over the final five games of 2023. While Greg Dulcich has the most upside among Denver’s tight ends, Dulcich has played just 12 games in two seasons and has already dealt with three separate hamstring injuries. Adam Trautman is returning after leading Denver’s tight ends in snaps last season, but he’s more valuable as a blocker than a pass catcher. There’s a path to an increased role for Krull in his age-26 season, especially if Dulcich gets hurt again, but keep in mind that Krull has just eight career catches.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could get more opportunities
Krull could see additional opportunities in the coming weeks, as Parker Gabriel of the Denver Post reports that Evan Engram injured his calf in Week 1 against the Titans.
ANALYSIS
If Engram misses any games, Krull and Adam Trautman would be in line for more snaps. Trautman is the more reliable blocker, but Krull may have some untapped potential as a pass catcher in a Denver offense without a clear second option in the passing game behind Courtland Sutton.
