ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — The Broncos have added to their defensive front with their first selection of the 2026 NFL Draft.
After Denver traded back from the 62nd-overall selection, the Broncos chose Texas A&M defensive tackle Tyler Onyedim with the 66th-overall pick.
The Broncos acquired the 66th pick and a 2026 sixth-round pick (No. 182) from the Bills in the trade.
In his lone season at Texas A&M, Onyedim recorded a career-high 2.5 sacks, 8.5 tackles for loss and 48 tackles.
In four previous seasons for Iowa State, he tallied a combined 12 tackles for loss, three sacks and 90 total tackles.
Onyedim appeared in 39 games over the past three seasons while starting 33 contests.
The 6-foot-3, 292-pound player recorded Honorable Mention All-Big 12 honors in 2023 while with the Cyclones.
Onyedim joins a talented Denver defensive front, which includes Zach Allen, D.J. Jones, Malcolm Roach, Eyioma Uwazurike, 2025 third-round pick Sai’vion Jones and multiple other contributors.
