Ehlinger signed a one-year, $2 million deal with the Broncos in 2026 and is competing for the backup QB job behind Bo Nix. After a solid training camp and preseason in 2025, he impressed the coaching staff enough to earn multiple activations to the 53-man roster. In year two of the system, Ehlinger looked better than Jarrett Stidham during OTAs and minicamp with Bo Nix sidelined for most offseason practices. Head Coach Sean Payton stated Ehlinger is "doing well with the system" and praised his spontaneous play-making ability. The source notes Ehlinger is "really pushing Jarrett Stidham for the Broncos backup quarterback job" based on offseason hype.
