After wrapping up preseason on Saturday, the Denver Broncos now have until Tuesday afternoon to trim the roster from 80 players down to 53. After teams finalize their initial 53-man rosters and make waiver claims, Denver will then build a 16-player practice squad for the 2022 season.
The Broncos have to make 27 moves before the deadline. Fans should note that not all of those moves have to be cuts — Denver could trade away several players, and some players might end up on injury lists.
We will be tracking all of the Broncos’ roster moves on this page over the next two days. Check back for updates.
