Broncos’ updated 17-player practice squad after roster moves

The Denver Broncos made a change to the practice squad this week.

The roster shuffling started on Tuesday when the team waived offensive lineman Calvin Throckmorton from the 53-man roster. Throckmorton cleared waivers on Wednesday and re-signed on the practice squad.

To make room for Throckmorton, Denver promoted linebacker Zach Cunningham from the practice squad to the 53-man roster.

The NFL’s standard practice squad size limit is 16 players, but there’s an exception that allows an extra international player to not count against the limit. For Denver, Australian tight end Thomas Yassmin is an exception, giving the Broncos a 17-player practice squad.

So here’s the full list of 17 players on the squad after the recent moves.
