What is the Denver Broncos plan for Noah Fant?
The Denver Broncos selected tight end Noah Fant in the first round of the 2019 NFL Draft. What exactly is their plan on using him?
There have not been many reliable tight ends in Denver since Hall of Famer Shannon Sharpe. The Broncos are hopeful that first-round draft pick Noah Fant can change that.
Fant is expected to stretch the field for the Broncos and be a reliable pass catcher. In three years at Iowa, Fant averaged 13.9 yards per reception.
The thing that I expect the Broncos to take advantage of is Fant’s speed. He ran the 40-yard dash at a 4.5-second speed, which is amazing for a tight end his size.
What more proof do you need? This is something the Broncos could really benefit from.
