New addition to Broncos’ wide receiver roster: Devaughn Vele – A rising star with potential for success in NFL

Denver Broncos drafted wide receiver Devaughn Vele in the seventh round of the 2024 NFL draft. Standing at 6-4 and weighing 210 pounds, Vele played college football at Utah and has been compared to Tim Patrick, a receiver for the Broncos. In an interview, Vele expressed admiration for Patrick and stated that he tries to model his game after great players in the league.

Broncos coach Sean Payton praised Vele’s reliable hands and ability to make catches in contested situations. He envisions Vele having positional flexibility in the team’s offense, able to play at different receiver spots. Although he is in a competitive wide receiver room, Vele may not be guaranteed a spot on the active roster this summer but could secure a place on the practice squad.

Vele is eager to continue developing his skills and learning from his new teammates as he navigates his first NFL season. Training camp for the rookie receiver is set to begin on July 17th. Fans can watch highlights from Vele’s time at Utah to get a glimpse of his potential impact on the field.
