Sam Ehlinger, a former quarterback for the Texas Longhorns, is reportedly set to join the Denver Broncos on a one-year deal. His move comes after he received multiple offers but chose Denver for the opportunity to work under head coach Sean Payton. The Broncos' quarterback room now includes Ehlinger, rookie Bo Nix, and veteran Jarrett Stidham, following the departure of Zach Wilson to the Miami Dolphins.

Ehlinger, who spent four seasons with the Indianapolis Colts, saw limited action last season, starting three games and finishing with stats that include 573 passing yards, three touchdowns, and three interceptions over eight games. Despite his struggles in Indianapolis, he is expected to compete for the third quarterback spot in Denver.
