Where’s Evan?
The Broncos signed Evan Engram to be their “joker.” They were thinking of something along the lines of Jack Nicholson or Heath Ledger. Instead, the former Jacksonville tight end has sailed closer to Jared Leto — a performance that’s hard to watch.
Check that.
Hard to find.
Through two weeks, the Broncos have targeted Engram, Denver’s big offseason free-agent addition at tight end, just six times. He’s caught only four balls for 33 yards.
Per The Denver Post’s Luca Evans, Engram was No. 2 among Broncos receivers during Sunday’s 29-28 loss at Indianapolis in pass snaps from the slot (nine) and No. 3 in terms of routes run (18 snaps). Yet Engram’s also shown up on just 38% of the Broncos’ offensive snaps through two games.
