Broncos worked out two players on Wednesday

The Broncos worked out wide receivers Ra’Shaun Henry and J.J. Koski on Wednesday.

The Denver Broncos brought in a pair of wide receivers for workouts on Wednesday, according to the NFL’s transaction wire.

The Broncos hosted Ra’Shaun Henry and J.J. Koski this week ahead of Friday’s preseason opener against the Arizona Cardinals.

Henry (6-3, 190 pounds) began his college career at Saint Francis University before later transferring to the University of Virginia. After totaling 41 receptions for 809 yards and seven touchdowns in two seasons (21 games) with the Cavaliers, Henry went undrafted in 2022.

Henry initially signed with the Carolina Panthers as a college free agent and he has since spent time with the Atlanta Falcons and Cleveland Browns. He remains a free agent after Wednesday’s workout in Denver.

Koski (6-1, 195 pounds) played college football at Cal Poly and entered the NFL as a college free agent with the Los Angeles Rams in 2020. He spent the last three years in L.A., mostly on the practice squad or injured reserve.

Koski appeared in five games during the 2021 season and returned two punts and five kickoffs. In the regular season, he has played exclusively on special teams (47 snaps) in his NFL career so far. At the time of publication, Koski remains a free agent.

Browns sign DE Charles Wiley, cut WR Ra’Shaun Henry

The Browns make a couple of roster moves to start the week

In need of another camp body at the defensive end position as Isaiah Thomas and Alex Wright recover from Pro Football Hall of Fame Game injuries, the Cleveland Browns have added Charles Wiley after a tryout a day ago. Spending time with both the Baltimore Ravens and New York Giants a year ago, Wiley now comes to Cleveland looking to at least nab a spot on the practice squad.

In order to make room for Wiley, the Browns have also released wide receiver Ra’Shaun Henry.

Browns sign former University of Virginia WR Ra’Shaun Henry

The #Browns added depth to their receiving corps by adding Ra’Shaun Henry to their roster on Monday

[connatix div_id=”3f8b015acdd24c648befc5d5dac47469″ player_id=”afe1e038-d3c2-49c0-922d-6511a229f69c” cid=”7cbcea0d-4ce2-4c75-9a8d-fbe02a192c24″]

The Cleveland Browns shored up the depth of their receiving corps on Monday by signing University of Virginia product Ra’Shaun Henry, who entered the league last season as an undrafted free agent.

Originally signed by the Carolina Panthers following the 2022 NFL draft, Henry made a name for himself in Charlottesville as a reliable target who could make opposing defenses pay with his speed and creativity after the catch.

He tallied 34 catches for 603 yards and three touchdowns for the Cavaliers in 2021, good for an average of 17.7 yards per reception in his standout senior season.

Despite his proven production at the collegiate level, Henry should be considered a longshot to make the Browns’ 53-man roster, though he may have upside as a developmental piece of their practice squad. Watch for Henry to do his best to make a good impression on Cleveland’s coaching staff during the team’s mandatory minicamp as he tries to secure his place on the Browns’ depth chart for the 2023 season.

Panthers cut WR Ra’Shaun Henry from practice squad

With Preston Williams and Marquise Blair coming in, the Panthers released Ra’Shaun Henry from their practice squad on Monday.

Daviyon Nixon wasn’t the only youngster the Carolina Panthers had to cut ties with on Monday.

To make room for the two additions to their practice squad from earlier this afternoon, the team released wideout Ra’Shaun Henry. The move was first noted by Aaron Wilson of Pro Football Network.

Henry signed on in Carolina as an undrafted free agent out of the University of Virginia. The 6-foot-3, 190-pounder appeared in 21 games for the Cavaliers between 2020 and 2021, amassing 41 receptions for 809 yards and seven touchdowns.

His release now officially clears the way on the Panthers’ practice squad for receiver Preston Williams and safety Marquise Blair. They are now the 15th and 16th members of the group, which also currently includes the following players:

  • TE Josh Babicz
  • OL Deonte Brown
  • S Juston Burris
  • QB Jacob Eason
  • CB Madre Harper
  • CB Tae Hayes
  • DE Drew Jordan
  • DE Austin Larkin
  • RB John Lovett
  • LB Arron Mosby
  • WR C.J. Saunders
  • C Sam Tecklenburg
  • TE Colin Thompson
