Just when the momentum started to seem like it was going in Denver Broncos tight end Caleb Lohner‘s favor, some adversity is headed his way.
Broncos reporter Mike Klis broke news on Sunday that Lohner would miss time with lower-body surgery.
Lohner, 6-foot-7 and 250 pounds, was a 7th-round pick in the 2025 NFL draft and has been 1 of the more promising out-of-the-box prospects for the Broncos this offseason with his marked improvement from a rookie season he spent on the practice squad.
“Per source, Broncos TE Caleb Lohner will miss the next two weeks of OTAs/minicamp as he had routine lower-body cleanup procedure this offseason. Lohner expected to be full-go by training camp,” Klis wrote on his official X account. “During rookie camp, Broncos HC Sean Payton singled out Lohner for his impressive second-year development. So Lohner had a nice head start before his offseason setback.”
Lohner only played 1 season of college football at Utah in 2024 after 4 seasons of college basketball at BYU, Baylor, and Utah.
“A minor setback for Caleb Lohner, who was having an impressive offseason,” DNVR’s Zac Stevens wrote on his official X account. “Good news is he’s expected to be back for training camp.”
