Overview
- Denver officially announced the two-year contract on Thursday after NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero first reported the agreement.
- Palczewski, a restricted free agent, was signed to a multi-year deal rather than receiving a tender, and the contract was negotiated by agent Nate Richman.
- The versatile lineman has 13 career starts, including 10 at left guard in 2025 in place of injured Ben Powers and three at right tackle in 2024.
- Financial terms were not disclosed, though 9News’ Mike Klis reported the deal could be worth up to about $11 million with incentives, with RFA tenders referenced at approximately $3.547 million and $5.77 million.
- The signing has intensified talk that Denver could trade or cut Powers to manage the cap, with reports noting a potential $12.7 million post–June 1 savings and key free agency dates on March 9 and March 11.
