Evan Engram praised Joly's early progression in training camp, noting he and fellow rookie Dallen Bentley 'have been awesome' and 'responding really well' despite the steep learning curve of the Broncos' offense. Engram stated: 'They're competing. They're handling things the right way. They're doing well in a difficult offense to learn, especially as a rookie, but very proud of the progress they've made.' Joly saw 23 snaps in the preseason opener versus the Falcons but was only targeted once, securing a catch for no yards. Justin Joly projects Joly as a potential heir apparent to Engram given his versatility and utilization as a move tight end.

The source notes "Taurean York just popped Justin Joly and de-cleated him on a short pass in the flat," indicating he struggled with physicality and decision-making during the intense practice.
