2025 Fantasy Outlook
Ehlinger joined the Broncos this offseason, signing a one-year deal after spending his first four seasons in Indianapolis. Drafted by the Colts in the sixth round of the 2021 NFL Draft, the Texas product failed to see the field last season while operating as the Colts' emergency third quarterback in several contests. Ehlinger should occupy a similar role for Denver in 2025, posing no threat to starter Bo Nix and with Jarrett Stidham having been signed to a two-year deal as the primary backup this offseason.

Signed a contract with the Broncos in September of 2025.
Working as emergency QB in Week 1
Ehlinger (coach's decision) is inactive and serving as Denver's emergency third quarterback Sunday versus Tennessee.
ANALYSIS
Ehlinger is behind both Bo Nix and Jarrett Stidham on the Broncos' QB depth chart, so he may be the team's emergency QB often this season. He can enter Sunday's game only if both Nix and Stidham are forced to exit due to an injury, illness or ejection.

Past Fantasy Outlooks

2022
Despite starting three games in 2022 and ostensibly being in the mix to be a starter or backup last summer, Ehlinger appeared in just one game for the Colts last season. His low usage even took place despite the early season-ending shoulder injury to starter Anthony Richardson. Ehlinger is a clear No. 3 quarterback with the Colts signing Joe Flacco to back up Richardson this season. Ehlinger may not make the 53-man roster since NFL rules this season allow you to activate a third QB from the practice squad. Either way, it would like take several injuries until the Colts gave Ehlinger substantial playing time again.
