Jaylen Waddle already seems to be making some close friends ever since he arrived in Denver. The night before he could officially become a Broncos player, the wide-receiver was treated to dinner with Bo Nix and several other players. Of course, the player felt pretty welcome with this gesture and even said so during a conversation with reporters.
“It feels like home, feels like family. Everyone has been welcoming. It’s been great.”Jaylen Waddle said in his conversation with reporters.
“It’s exciting, like I said, just playing with great players. Everyone is talking about how great and close the team is. I’m excited to be around the guys, get to know them, and they get to know me and go from there.” Waddle also added.
Jaylen Waddle will obviously add plenty of depth to the Broncos roster and his move obviously made Bo Nix pretty happy. The signal-caller could definitely use plenty of help in the wide-receiver area, something which has been pointed out repeatedly.
The team did well in the previous football year but their stint came to an end with Bo Nix’s terrible injury. Nix is on the road to recovery and will be hoping to do a lot better with additions like Waddle as his teammate.

Jaylen Waddle’s Move To Broncos Delights Nick Wright
Meanwhile, Jaylen Waddle’s move to Denver definitely got a lot of nodding, with even Nick Wright coming out with a rare statement of joy. Wright praised Denver’s move, remarking that Waddle is the perfect player for their roster, especially with his youth and his physical fitness.
One more plus for Denver is that Waddle comes a whole lot cheaper than many other wide-outs, who have entered free agency this time out. Fans are obviously shocked at Wright saying something positive about the Broncos, especially since the analyst has been so critical of the Broncos in the past.
