The Denver Broncos finalized their 53-man roster at the 2 pm MT deadline yesterday. There were a few surprises, but that is always the case with these things. Next, we have the Broncos filling out their 16-man practice squad.
The practice squad rules are the same as last year. They can hold up to 16 players. 10 of those players will be players with two years or fewer seasons in the NFL. While the remaining six can go to NFL veterans who do not meet the qualifications under the old rules. So, we could see a few veterans signed back to the practice squad, and we already have reports of a few expected to sign back with the Broncos.
As for waiver claims, the order follows the order of the NFL Draft. The Broncos had the 20th overall pick, so now they will be 20th when it comes to waiver claims. We shall see if they decide to put any claims on players or not. If players go unclaimed, they become free agents and are eligible to sign on to a practice squad.
