The deal, agreed at Tuesday's trade deadline for a 2027 fourth-round and 2028 fifth-round pick, was canceled late Wednesday, and neither team gave a reason. The trade was reportedly pending a physical, and ESPN reported Henley took one at the Broncos' facility Wednesday.

The Bengals and Eagles called off a trade that would have sent edge rusher Arnold Ebiketie to Cincinnati.
NBC Sports Philadelphia reported the deal would have canceled out a 2027 third-round compensatory pick the Bengals are due after losing Trey Hendrickson, since Ebiketie was signed by Philadelphia as a compensatory free agent. Bengals coach Zac Taylor apologized and said it was on Cincinnati's end. Ebiketie, 27, has played in all nine Eagles games with 25 tackles, two quarterback hits and no sacks.
