Broncos’ updated 17-player practice squad with new running back

Here’s a look at the Broncos’ updated 17-player practice squad following the addition of RB Salvon Ahmed.

The Denver Broncos signed running back Salvon Ahmed and released wide receiver Kaden Davis from the practice squad on Tuesday.

The Broncos brought in Ahmed to provide more depth at running back after Tyler Badie suffered a back injury against the New York Jets in Week 4.

The 17-player practice squad and 53-man roster are now both full.

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 Tuesday’s moves.
