The Denver Broncos received a gut punch on Tuesday when they received word that wide receiver Tim Patrick suffered an ACL injury that’s expected to sideline him for the entire 2022 season.
Even without Patrick, the Broncos still have pretty good receiver depth headlined by Courtland Sutton and Jerry Jeudy. In addition to Sutton and Jeudy, KJ Hamler, Kendall Hinton and Montrell Washington will look to step up as well.
Denver will undoubtedly want to add some more depth at the position, though, either through free agency or via trade. The most notable free agent available at the moment is Odell Beckham Jr.
Beckham likely would have been signed by now if not for an ACL injury of his own. OBJ suffered the injury during Super Bowl LVI and he might not be fully recovered until October or even November.
So if the Broncos did sign OBJ, he wouldn’t be an immediate replacement for Patrick. He’s the most notable WR available, though, so OBJ tops the list.
Here’s a quick look at nine other WRs the team might also consider.
