2024 Fantasy Outlook
Adkins joined the Broncos as an undrafted free agent during the 2023 offseason and appeared in 10 games as a rookie. The 25-year-old tight end was minimally involved on offense, catching four of his five targets for 22 yards while playing just 57 offensive snaps. Adkins was more involved on special teams, as he played 97 special teams snaps in 2023. If the 6-foot-3, 252-pounder makes the 53-man roster, he'd likely play a similar role as a special teams contributor in 2024. Ahead of him on the tight end depth chart are Greg Dulcich, Adam Trautman, and Lucas Krull. Read Past Outlooks
Scores three touchdowns in 2024
Adkins finished the 2024 campaign with 14 catches on 15 targets for 115 yards and three touchdowns.
ANALYSIS
Adkins appeared in all 17 games of the 2024 campaign after playing in just 10 games as a rookie in 2023. The 25-year-old tight end's three trips to the end zone ranked him third in receiving touchdowns for the Broncos, behind wide receivers Courtland Sutton (eight) and Marvin Mims (six) and tied with wideout Devaughn Vele. Adkins did not have a major role in the offense throughout the season, failing to catch more than one pass in all but two games. The South Carolina product remains under contract for the 2025 season before coming a restricted free agent in 2026.
