The Broncos' pre-draft visit with a first-round WR prospect was canceled after the Jaylen Waddle trade, but the team continues looking at other WRs.

The Denver Broncos met with Texas A&M wide receiver KC Concepcion at the NFL combine earlier this offseason, and they were scheduled to host him on a visit ahead of the NFL draft next month. However, after trading their first-round pick for wide receiver Jaylen Waddle, the visit with Concepcion (a first-round prospect) was canceled , according to the Denver Post 's Luca Evans. Denver's still looking at other receivers.

The Broncos hosted Indiana receiver Omar Cooper earlier this month (before the Waddle trade), and they have shown interest in Iowa receiver Jacob Gill, according to KPRC-TV's Aaron Wilson. Cooper (6-0, 199 pounds) ran a 40-yard dash in 4. 42 seconds at the NFL combine, and he's projected as a late first-round prospect.

Gill (6-0, 185 pounds) totaled 59 receptions for 689 yards and three scores in two seasons (26 games) with the Hawkeyes following three seasons at Northwestern. He appears to be a late-round or undrafted free agent prospect. After the Jaylen Waddle trade , the Broncos hold seven picks in the 2026 NFL draft, which will be held in Pittsburgh from April 23-25.
