Trautman finished the 2025 season with 20 receptions on 23 targets for 195 yards and one touchdown across 17 games.
EDGE Analysis
Trautman continued his typical role as a blocking specialist this season, failing to reach 200 receiving yards for the second straight season. In his third year with Denver, the veteran played the most offensive snaps of any Broncos tight end despite not being utilized much as a pass catcher. Meanwhile, teammate Evan Engram handled the majority of tight-end pass-catching duties in Denver's offense. Trautman will enter the offseason as an unrestricted free agent, and his blocking acumen will likely help him garner interest from teams around the league. Considering his experience in Sean Payton's system, it wouldn't be surprising to see him back with the Broncos on a new deal next season, yet he'll continue to have little appeal for fantasy purposes.

Trautman caught both of his targets for 24 yards in Thursday's 20-13 win over the Chiefs.
EDGE Analysis
Trautman played 52 of the Broncos' 72 offensive snaps Thursday, once again playing the most snaps at tight end. Teammates Evan Engram and Marcedes Lewis played 22 and 15 snaps, respectively. Engram paced the position group in targets (4) as Denver's preferred pass-catching tight end. Meanwhile the 28-year-old Trautman continued to operate as a blocking specialist. The veteran's limited opportunities keep him far off the fantasy radar each week. Next up for the Broncos is a Week 18 matchup against the Chargers.

Trautman caught two of three targets for 14 yards in Sunday's 34-20 loss to the Jaguars.
EDGE Analysis
Trautman played 58 percent of snaps Sunday, continuing to handle the highest offensive snap share among Broncos' tight ends. The veteran was unable to turn his opportunities into much significant production, as he continues to take a back seat to teammate Evan Engram as a pass catcher. Trautman's blocking acumen keep him on the field, but he remains far off the fantasy radar going forward. Next up for the Broncos is a Week 17 matchup against the Chiefs.

Trautman went without a target while playing 42 of the Broncos' 68 snaps on offense in Sunday's 34-26 win over the Packers.
EDGE Analysis
Trautman's 62 percent snap share led the way among Broncos tight ends, but Evan Engram was the only member of the position group to draw a target from quarterback Bo Nix on the day. Trautman has produced a 16-157-1 receiving line on 18 targets through 14 games this season but offers most of his impact as a blocker rather than a pass catcher.

Trautman caught his lone target for two yards in Sunday's 10-7 win over the Raiders.
EDGE Analysis
Trautman once again led all Denver tight ends in offensive snap share, playing 42 of 61 snaps Thursday. Meanwhile, fellow tight ends Evan Engram and Marcedes Lewis played 27 and 20 snaps, respectively. With that said, Trautman offered little production based on his usage as a blocking specialist. It was Engram, however, who saw five targets in the contest, the second most among all Broncos pass catchers. The 28-year-old Trautman should remain far off the fantasy radar when the Broncos host the Chiefs in Week 11.

Trautman caught both of his targets for 25 yards in Sunday's 18-15 win over the Texans.
EDGE Analysis
Trautman played 46 of the Broncos' 63 offensive snaps Sunday, ahead of fellow tight ends Evan Engram (32) and Marcedes Lewis (6). The veteran's two grabs were his first receptions since Week 5, as he continues to contribute as more of a blocking specialist in Denver's offense. Despite Engram operating as the preferred pass-catching tight end, it was Trautman who was able to record two receptions while Engram was held without a catch in the contest. Based on his limited usage in the passing game, the 28-year-old Trautman remains extremely difficult to trust for meaningful fantasy production. Next up for the Broncos is a Week 10 matchup against the Raiders.

Trautman wasn't targeted while playing 40 of the Broncos' 63 snaps on offense Sunday in a 44-24 win over the Cowboys.
EDGE Analysis
With fellow tight end Nate Adkins (knee) making an early exit from the Week 8 contest, Trautman ended up matching his highest snap share of the season (63 percent). Despite the increased playing time, however, Trautman went without a target for the third game in a row, as Denver continued to utilize Evan Engram as its top pass-catching tight end. Even if he continues to play more than half of Denver's snaps if Adkins is sidelined for a Week 9 matchup with the Texans, Trautman will continue to be deployed primarily as a blocker.

Trautman failed to record a single target in Sunday's 13-11 win over the Jets.
EDGE Analysis
Trautman was a complete nonfactor against the Jets, as the veteran was not involved in the Broncos' offensive attack Sunday. The 28-year-old played 23 of Denver's 60 offensive snaps, behind fellow tight end Evan Engram (28) and tied with teammate Nate Adkins. Due to his usage as a blocker, Trautman offers very little in the way of fantasy production most weeks. The sixth-year tight end should be ignored for fantasy purposes when the Broncos host the Giants in Week 7.

Trautman reeled in his lone target for 11 yards in Sunday's 21-17 win over the Eagles.
EDGE Analysis
Trautman had another quiet day Sunday despite playing the most snaps of all Denver tight ends against the Eagles. The veteran played 31 of the Broncos' 74 offensive snaps, slightly ahead of both Evan Engram (30) and Nate Adkins (27). It was Engram, however, that took a step forward in the offense, securing four of six targets for 33 yards and a touchdown. Mainly a blocking specialist, Trautman offers little in the way of fantasy-relevant production on a weekly basis. The 28-year-old should be ignored for fantasy purposes when the Broncos face the Jets in London in Week 6.

Trautman caught two of three targets for 32 yards in Monday's 28-3 win over the Bengals.
EDGE Analysis
Trautman had another quiet day in Week 4; however, his 32 receiving yards accounted for his highest total of the season thus far. The veteran tight end played 42 of the Broncos' 81 offensive snaps, ahead of both Evan Engram (35) and Nate Adkins (34). Even so, Engram was predictably a much larger part of Denver's offensive plans, earning seven targets in the contest. Based on his lack of consistent usage in the passing game, Trautman remains far off the fantasy radar heading into a Week 4 matchup against the Eagles.
