## Key points

- Denver’s proposed trade for Daiyan Henley has been cancelled.
- The deal depended on a physical; the reason is unknown.
- The Broncos would have sent Los Angeles two future draft picks.

## Summary

Denver’s proposed trade for Los Angeles Chargers linebacker Daiyan Henley has been called off, despite the NFL trade deadline having passed. The move would have added defensive depth for the AFC West-leading Broncos, who have allowed 355 yards per game, the league’s 26th-highest figure.

The deal was subject to a physical and would have sent the Chargers a 2027 fourth-round pick and a 2028 fifth-round pick. The reason it fell through is unclear; Henley had a shoulder issue in practice last week but played against Houston on Sunday, recording six tackles and an interception. He leads the Chargers with 51 tackles this season and had more than 100 in each of the previous two seasons.
