DaeSean Hamilton makes list of NFL players most likely to be cut or traded

After the 2020 NFL Draft, ESPN’s Bill Barnwell published a list of the 32 players most likely to be cut or traded, one player from each team.

For the Denver Broncos, Barnwell listed wide receiver DaeSean Hamilton. Denver drafted Jerry Jeudy and KJ Hamler and the team already had Courtland Sutton so Barnwell believes Hamilton could be the odd man out at wide receiver.

“With Hamilton playing just one special-teams snap last season, he wouldn’t retain much value on the roster as Denver’s fourth or fifth wideout,” Barnwell wrote on ESPN.com.

Hamilton (6-1, 203 pounds) was selected by the Broncos in the fourth round of the 2018 NFL Draft out of Penn State. Over the last two years, he has averaged just 29 receptions per season with an average of 270 yards and 1.5 touchdowns per year.

Hamilton will likely be competing with players including Tim Patrick, Diontae Spencer, Juwann Winfree and Tyrie Cleveland for a spot on the 53-man roster. Last season, Denver carried six WRs on the initial roster.
