Even before he joined the Broncos, Kage Casey was watching Garett Bolles to emulate him as a left tackle.

Going into the 2026 NFL draft, Boise State offensive lineman Kage Casey had one team on his wish list โ€” the Denver Broncos . Casey's wish was granted when Denver picked him in the fourth round , and he's now eager to join the club and begin working with the left tackle that he began emulating even before becoming his teammate. โ€œThe pre-draft process with the Broncos was awesome," Casey said during a conference call after being picked by Denver.

"I met them first off at the Senior Bowl. I had a quick visit with them, and then at the Combine had a formal with them as well. That went very, very well.

Just the whole process has been great. "I know, especially, Garett Bolles, heโ€™s a guy who I try to model my own game after. Iโ€™m excited to actually meet him in person and be part of the offensive line with him.

Just the whole offensive line in general, itโ€™s going to be an awesome environment to be part of. โ€ Casey started 41 straight games at left tackle for college football's Broncos from 2023-2025. He's now set to learn behind Bolles, an All-Pro and Pro Bowler who has handled left tackle duties in Denver since 2017.
