In a significant boost to their roster, the Denver Broncos' odds to win the AFC West improved slightly after the acquisition of Miami Dolphins' wide receiver Jaylen Waddle. Despite the positive move, they remained third favorites behind Kansas City and Los Angeles Chargers, as major betting platforms adjusted their odds.

In other NFL news, wide receiver Olamide Zaccheaus returned to the Atlanta Falcons where he first caught on as an undrafted free agent in 2019. His return follows his brief stint with the Philadelphia Eagles last season.
