Terms were not disclosed by the Broncos. Multiple outlets reported it's a one-year contract.
Ehlinger, 26, had spent his first four seasons with the Indianapolis Colts, who selected him in the sixth round of the 2021 NFL Draft out of Texas.
He has played eight games in his NFL career, none last season. Ehlinger played in four games in 2022, making three starts and going 0-3 with 64-of-101 passing (63.5 percent) for 573 yards, three touchdowns and three interceptions. He also had 17 rushing attempts for 87 yards.
Ehlinger joins starting quarterback Bo Nix and seventh-year veteran Jarrett Stidham on the depth chart. The Broncos' third quarterback last season, Zach Wilson, signed with the Miami Dolphins in March as a free agent.
