Davis Webb, Denver's new offensive coordinator, compared Waddle to Stefan Diggs when Diggs was traded to the Bills in year three of his contract—a year-three receiver on a second contract who is a proven talent that people still underestimate. Harmon made this same Diggs comparison when the trade was announced and views it as validation of Waddle's upside in Denver's system.PositiveRoleJul 24, 2026
Zane Dahani reports that Denver's new offensive coordinator Davis Webb plans to deploy Waddle in short-area and intermediate routes—screens, drag routes, and slants—rather than as a deep threat to take the top off the defense.

Dahani is excited about the usage patterns emerging from camp.PositiveValueJul 24, 2026
