The Denver Broncos have finally made a move at the NFL trade deadline! The Broncos have agreed to trade 2027 fourth-round and 2028 fifth-round draft picks to the Los Angeles Chargers in exchange for linebacker Daiyan Henley ahead of Tuesday's 4:00 p.m. ET trade deadline.

Henley is on an expiring contract with the Chargers and was drafted in the third round of the 2023 NFL draft out of Washington State. Henley has been a consistent linebacker through his four-year career thus far in Los Angeles, playing in 56 games with the Chargers, with 41 career starts under his belt. Henley has made his name as a coverage linebacker, with 15 career pass deflections, four career interceptions, including one last week against the Houston Texans, and the past two seasons at over 100 tackles.

Coverage linebacker is a position the Broncos have been killed at by both tight ends and running backs, and this may help solve a problem with games against dangerous pass catchers such as Brock Bowers and Dalton Kincaid ahead.

Broncos Country reacted to the move positively on Twitter/X. Check out their reactions below.

Henley could provide an answer to a long-standing question mark at coverage linebacker, while providing insurance as a sure tackler. Henley will have the benefit of a bye week to get caught up to speed on the Broncos' defense before facing Fernando Mendoza and the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 11.
