Jaylen Waddle’s 2026 receiving touchdown total hinges on his adaptation to the Broncos offense following his March trade from Miami, where he posted six scores in 2025. Through eight games with Denver, he has just two touchdowns on 29 catches for 315 yards, including one in the Week 8 win over Kansas City after a chest injury that kept him questionable but ultimately active. In a 6-2 Broncos attack led by Bo Nix and featuring multiple wideout options, Waddle has drawn steady targets but limited red-zone volume, with production fluctuating due to the injury and shared opportunities. The remainder of the schedule, his health, and Denver’s overall scoring pace will shape whether he approaches or exceeds prior career norms around four to eight touchdowns per season.
