Engram (shoulder) is signing a two-year contract with Denver, according to agent Mike McCartney. The Jaguars released Engram in early March, about 11 weeks after he had surgery to repair a torn labrum in his left shoulder. He may not practice this spring but should be ready by Week 1, at which point he'll be 31 years old and taking over as the top pass-catching TE in an offense that sent just 13.1 percent of its targets to the position last year (second lowest rate in the league). That number will rise considerably if Engram stays relatively healthy, although he's unlikely to match his per-game volume from the past two years in Jacksonville, where injuries to Christian Kirk and other wideouts forced extra targets in the tight end's direction.

Evan Engram Latest News
Signing with Broncos

Engram (shoulder) is signing a two-year contract with Denver, according to agent Mike McCartney. The Jaguars released Engram in early March, about 11 weeks after he had surgery to repair a torn labrum in his left shoulder. He may not practice this spring but should be ready by Week 1, at which point he'll be 31 years old and taking over as the top pass-catching TE in an offense that sent just 13.1 percent of its targets to the position last year (second lowest rate in the league). That number will rise considerably if Engram stays relatively healthy, although he's unlikely to match his per-game volume from the past two years in Jacksonville, where injuries to Christian Kirk and other wideouts forced extra targets in the tight end's direction.
Meeting with Broncos

Engram (shoulder) is visiting the Broncos on Monday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. Released by the Jaguars last week, Engram is seeking a new home for what will be his age-31 season. He underwent surgery in December to repair a torn labrum in his left shoulder, which may lead to limitations this offseason but shouldn't impact his Week 1 availability. The Broncos have a glaring need at tight end, where a committee approach yielded only 51 cumulative receptions for 483 yards and five TDs last season. Denver's tight ends accounted for 13.1 percent of the team target total -- the second-lowest rate in the league (Giants - 11.6 percent).
Cut by Jags

The Jaguars released Engram (shoulder) on Thursday, Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com reports. Engram's 2024 campaign was abbreviated due to a torn labrum in his left shoulder that required surgery in mid-December, but he also sat out Weeks 2-5 due to a hamstring injury, limiting him to nine regular-season appearances. He was modestly productive when healthy, hauling in 47 of 64 passes for 365 yards and one touchdown. Engram was heading into the final season of the three-year, $41.25 million contract that he agreed to with Jacksonville in July 2023, and the team will free up $5.98 million in cap savings with this move. The Jags will be left with Brenton Strange, Patrick Murtagh (ankle) and Shane Bowman at tight end once the new league year kicks off next Wednesday.
Gets surgery on shoulder

Jaguars head coach Doug Pederson said Engram underwent surgery Monday to repair a torn labrum in his left shoulder, Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com reports. Engram was ruled out for the Jaguars' final four games of the season when he was placed on injured reserve Saturday, though it wasn't immediately known if he would get surgery to address the labrum tear. With the procedure now confirmed, Engram will likely be shut down from activity for a few weeks before beginning a rehab program. Pederson said he expects Engram to be a full participant when the Jaguars begin their offseason program in the spring, when the 30-year-old tight end will be heading into the final season of the three-year, $41.25 million extension he signed in July 2023. After turning in a career-best 114-catch, 963-yard season in 2023, Engram took a big step back statistically in 2024, but he was still a usable fantasy starter in PPR formats with a 47-365-1 receiving line on 64 targets over nine appearances.
Officially on IR

Engram (shoulder) was placed on injured reserve Saturday, Demetrius Harvey of The Florida Times-Union reports. It was announced earlier this week Engram would miss the rest of the season due to a torn labrum, so this is just a transactional move by the Jaguars. The veteran has one year remaining on his contract with zero guarantees on his $14.75 million base salary, which means it's entirely possible the team will move on from Engram given the projected coaching and potential front office changes on the horizon.
Out for season

Engram (shoulder) will miss the rest of the season due to a torn labrum, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. Jaguars coach Doug Pederson made the announcement Friday, after the tight end missed consecutive practices. Brenton Strange figures to step in as Jacksonville's starter, just as he did earlier this season when Engram was out with a hamstring injury. Engram will have surgery soon and should be ready for Week 1 of 2025, but his future in Jacksonville is uncertain with one year remaining on his contract and no current guarantees for a $14.75 million base salary.
Misses practice again

Engram (shoulder) remained sidelined at practice Thursday, Demetrius Harvey of The Florida Times-Union reports. Head coach Doug Pederson noted Wednesday that he anticipated Engram being available for Sunday's game against the Jets, but back-to-back absences from practice make the tight end's status worth tracking, nonetheless. If Engram ends up limited or out this weekend, Brenton Strange and Luke Farrell would be in line to see added snaps Week 15.
Not practicing Wednesday

Head coach Doug Pederson said Engram won't practice Wednesday due to a shoulder injury, Mia O'Brien of 1010 XL 92.5 FM Jacksonville reports. While Engram will be a spectator for the Jaguars' first practice session of the week, Pederson expects the tight end to play Sunday against the Jets. Engram -- who caught four of his six targets for 33 yards in a Week 14 win over the Titans -- has two more chances to practice ahead of the contest, but unless he's a full participant by Friday, he'll likely head into the weekend with an injury designation.
Quiet against Titans

Engram recorded four receptions on six targets for 33 yards in Sunday's 10-6 win over the Titans. Engram's six targets were good for second on the team and also marked his fifth straight game with at least that many opportunities. However, his longest catch went for just 11 yards as the Jacksonville offense struggled to generate explosive plays. Engram has now been held below 40 yards in half of his last eight games.
