Marcedes Lewis Can Make NFL History After Signing with Broncos

Lewis, potentially joining the Broncos’ practice squad, aims to fill tight end depth after injuries sidelined key players Nate Adkins and Lucas Krull.

  • On Wednesday, the Denver Broncos signed veteran tight end Marcedes Lewis to their practice squad after a private Tuesday workout and tryout that went well, per team sources and ESPN's Adam Schefter.
  • After Adkins left Sunday's game with a knee injury, and Lucas Krull underwent foot surgery and was placed on injured reserve earlier this month, Denver Broncos urgently sought a blocking tight end.
  • Across his career, Lewis enters his 20th NFL season as the final active member of the 2006 draft class with 295 games played and career totals of 437 catches, 5,115 yards, and 40 touchdowns.
  • He can be elevated for up to three games, and Lewis was an immediate candidate for a gameday elevation possibly as soon as Sunday's game at Houston Texans; if activated, he would become the oldest tight end in Super Bowl era.
  • With Denver Broncos 6-2 entering Week 9, the 2025 trade deadline and failed waiver claims on blocking tight ends add pressure to roster decisions.
