The Denver Broncos have placed a one-year, exclusive rights free agent tender on safety Devon Key , according to a report from KUSA-TV's Mike Klis . As a player with two accrued seasons, Key will earn $1.075 million on the one-year deal.
It was an easy decision for Denver as the ERFA tenders are worth the league minimum, and Key earned a first-team All-Pro nod as a special teams ace last season. The 28-year-old safety was credited with 26 tackles on special teamsin 2025, setting a new franchise record. He also forced a fumble and broke up a pass as a rotational safety.
