Tom Pelissero of NFL Media reports that Broncos WR K.J. Hamler recently underwent surgery after suffering a partially torn pec while training on his own.
According to Pelissero, Hamler is looking at a recovery timeline of four to six months, which means he should have a shot at being ready around the start of training camp in late July.
Hamler has had a very difficult time staying on the field since entering the NFL so this is just the latest setback for the young receiver.
Hamler, 23, was a two-year starter at Penn State and earned second-team All-Big Ten honors before being selected by the Broncos in the second round of the 2020 NFL Draft.
He’s in the final year of his four-year, $7,137,128 rookie contract that included a $2,750,638 signing bonus.
In 2022, Hamler appeared in seven games for the Broncos and caught seven passes for 165 yards receiving and no touchdowns.
