The Denver Broncos released center Dieter Eiselen from their practice squad on Saturday, the team announced.
Eiselen (6-4, 300 pounds) just signed with the club last week after the team lost starting center Luke Wattenberg to an ankle injury. Denver still has Calvin Throckmorton and Nick Gargiulo providing depth from the practice squad as swing guard/center backups.
The Broncos cut Eiselen to make room for running back Blake Watson on the practice squad. Denver cut Watson from the active roster on Thursday and he returned on the practice squad after clearing waivers.
The Broncos currently have one true center (Alex Forsyth) and three running backs (Javonte Williams, Jaleel McLaughlin and Audric Estime) on the 53-man roster. Wattenberg (center) and Tyler Badie (running back) will be eligible to return from IR later this season.
In the meantime, Throckmorton and Gargiulo will provide depth at center and Watson will provide running back from the practice squad.
