Added to injury report Joly (concussion) did not practice Thursday.

Impact Joly practiced Wednesday but was absent Thursday. While there's still a chance that the rookie will be healthy enough to play in Week 5 against the Bengals, that doesn't mean he will be active, considering he's currently the No. 4 tight end on the depth chart.

Inactive for Sunday Joly (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Raiders.

Impact Joly will sit behind Greg Dulcich, Will Kacmarek and Seydou Traore. The No. 4 option at tight end will likely find himself the odd man out frequently throughout the season as he acclimates to the NFL in his first year.

New opportunity in Miami The Dolphins claimed Joly off waivers from the Broncos on Monday.

Impact Joly was a fifth-round selection of the Broncos in the 2026 NFL Draft, but he did not crack Denver's 53-man roster for the upcoming regular season. He'll get a fresh start in Miami, and if Will Kacmarek (undisclosed) misses time, then Joly would slot in as the team's TE3 behind Greg Dulcich and Seydou Traore.

Stands out with big TD Joly secured both targets for 95 yards and a touchdown in the Broncos' 34-6 preseason win over the Vikings on Friday.

Impact The rookie fifth-round pick flashed his speed on an 88-yard touchdown grab in the fourth quarter, a play when Joly motored the final 50 yards to the end zone after getting wide open in the middle of the field. Joly finished preseason with a 5-105-1 line over three games, and his big-play upside could help him progressively carve out more opportunity behind Evan Engram and Adam Trautman as the regular season unfolds.

Catches pair of targets Joly caught both of his targets for 10 yards in Friday's preseason game against the Packers.

Impact Joly played just eight offensive snaps, meaning he was targeted 25 percent of the time he was on the field. The rookie fifth-rounder continues to make his case for one of the three primary tight end slots on the Broncos' 53-man roster. The low amount of snaps further implies Joly has played his way into a valuable position.
