He played his next two seasons with the Denver Broncos and was a member of the 2013 team that set the NFL record for points scored in a season. He played for the St. Louis Rams in 2015 before retiring. Welker then served as an offensive assistant from 2017 to 2024 before becoming the Commanders' personnel analyst in 2025.
