Welcome back, Denver Broncos football!
The Broncos are set to begin preseason on Sunday when they take on the Indianapolis Colts on the road at Lucas Oil Stadium. Before that preseason opener, Denver made several roster moves last week.
First, the Broncos waived safety Caden Sterns and welcomed back defensive lineman Eyioma Uwazurike after his gambling suspension was lifted. After that, Denver signed rookie linebacker Alec Mock and placed pass rusher Ronnie Perkins on the waived/injured list (Perkins reverted to injured reserve after clearing waivers).
After making those roster moves, the Broncos have 92 players on their roster going into Sunday’s game against the Colts. As part of the NFL’s International Player Pathway program, tight end Thomas Yassmin does not count against the 90-man roster limit. It appears that Denver also received a roster exemption for Uwazurike after he returned from suspension.
Denver Broncos 90-man offseason roster
Notes: Drew Sanders (Achilles) and Delarrin Turner-Yell (ACL) are currently on the physically unable to perform list. As part of the IPP program, Thomas Yassmin would not count against the 16-player limit if he makes the practice squad this summer.
The Broncos have to trim the roster down to 53 players by Aug. 27. After finalizing an active roster, Denver can build a 16- or 17-player practice squad. We will track all of the team’s roster moves on Broncos Wire.
