Troy Franklin has inked a four-year deal with the Denver Broncos, as announced by the team on Saturday. Though specific financial details weren’t disclosed by the team, sources suggest his contract is valued at $4.875 million, featuring a signing bonus of $854,836, according to reports from KUSA’s Mike Klis.
Drafted in the fourth round (No. 102 overall) in the 2024 NFL draft, Franklin becomes the final Broncos’ pick from the 2024 draft class to sign. The 21-year-old wide receiver had a strong connection with Broncos quarterback Bo Nix during their time at Oregon, where Franklin emerged as Nix’s go-to target over the past two seasons.
Franklin’s impressive stats from last season include 81 receptions for 1,383 yards and 14 touchdowns, setting single-season records at Oregon for receptions, yards, and touchdowns. Moreover, he holds the school’s career record for most receiving touchdowns with 25.
The Broncos are banking on the established chemistry between Franklin and Nix to flourish at the professional level.
