Broncos’ updated 17-player practice squad with new OLB

Here’s a look at the Broncos’ updated 17-player practice squad following the addition of Andrew Farmer. 

After making three roster moves on Wednesday, the Denver Broncos have reshuffled their practice squad ahead of Week 3.

The move that started the reshuffling was right tackle Mike McGlinchey (knee) being placed on injured reserve. To fill McGlinchey’s former spot on the 53-man roster, Denver promoted pass rusher Dondrea Tillman from the practice squad to the active roster.

To fill Tillman’s former practice squad spot, the Broncos brought in pass rusher Andrew Farmer.

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 Wednesday’s moves.
