Broncos cut defensive lineman, sign tight end Hunter Kampmoyer

The Denver Broncos signed tight end Hunter Kampmoyer on Friday, the team announced. To make room for Kampmoyer on the 90-man offseason roster, the Broncos waived undrafted defensive lineman Brandon Matterson.

Kampmoyer (6-4, 243 pounds) entered the league as an undrafted free agent out of Oregon with the Los Angeles Chargers in 2021. He spent most of the last three seasons on L.A.’s practice squad, dressing for two games. In two regular season appearances, Kampmoyer played four snaps on offense and eight snaps on special teams.

Before joining the Chargers, Kampmoyer hauled in 20 receptions for 224 yards and four touchdowns in his final three years with the Ducks (32 games). He now joins Denver’s TE room which already includes Greg Dulcich, Adam Trautman, Lucas Krull, Thomas Yassmin and Nate Adkins.

Kampmoyer was one of seven players who worked out for the Broncos during minicamp in June. One month later, the TE now gets his shot.
