Albert Okwuegbunam

Albert O reunites with his old college QB, but he's not going to be anything for fantasy football unless Noah Fant misses time with an injury. He shouldn't be rostered in your Dynasty leagues unless you're in a TE premium format.

Albert Okwuegbunam signs rookie deal with Broncos

Fourth-round pick out of Missouri TE Albert Okwuegbunam has signed his four-year, $4M contract with the Denver Broncos.

Fantasy Impact

Okwuegbunam will also receive a $749,040 signing bonus that is included in his deal. “Albert O” as they call him was one of Drew Lock’s favorite and most reliable targets at Missouri when they played together in 2017 and 2018. Okwuegbunam caught a whopping 17 TDs from Lock those two seasons. It’ll be interesting to see if the chemistry is still there between Lock and his newest weapon, but don’t forget the Broncos still have young up-and-comer Noah Fant at the position. He himself is on the verge of a breakout season, so Okwuegbunam may have to wait his turn to produce at a high level. We may however see some instances in the red zone where Albert O is used for his 6-foot-5 frame.
