Broncos Acquire Linebacker Daiyan Henley From Los Angeles Chargers
The Chargers get draft capital for a 26-year-old starter who led the team in tackles this season and was set to reach free agency.
- On Tuesday, the Denver Broncos acquired linebacker Daiyan Henley from the winless Los Angeles Chargers in exchange for a 2027 fourth-round draft pick and a 2028 fifth-round pick.
- The 0-8 Chargers shifted their stance on Monday, just 24 hours before the deadline, after previously indicating they would not trade players like Henley despite widespread speculation.
- Denver covets Henley's coverage ability, as the 7-2 Broncos have allowed 268 yards to tight ends over the last three games, addressing a specific defensive weakness.
- With a $1.83 million cap hit for the remainder of the season, Henley is in the final year of his rookie contract and will become a free agent in March.
- Chargers personnel executive Joe Hortiz appears to be stripping the roster down for spare parts, while the Broncos hope Henley bolsters their linebacker corps to maintain their five-game winning streak.
