On Tuesday, the Broncos made the exciting decision to activate second-year linebacker Drew Sanders from the physically unable to perform list. This comes after Sanders had been sidelined due to a torn Achilles tendon he suffered during the early part of Denver's offseason workout program last spring. However, Sanders has been making progress and was able to return to practice earlier this month, giving him a 21-day window to potentially rejoin the 53-man roster.
Leading up to Denver's recent divisional win over the Raiders, Sanders was a full participant in practice. However, he was not activated for the game. As a third-round draft pick in 2023, Sanders originally played as an inside linebacker but was later switched to outside linebacker during the season. Since coming back from his injury, Sanders has been working with the team's outside linebackers during media viewings of practice.
In addition to welcoming back Sanders, the Broncos also made the decision to waive offensive lineman Calvin Throckmorton. This move may have come as a surprise to some, but the team has their reasons for making this decision. As for Sanders, the Broncos are likely hoping that he will continue to make progress and potentially make a big impact on the team's defense.
As the Broncos continue to make changes and decisions, there are many questions surrounding the team. One of the most pressing questions is whether or not head coach Sean Payton is taking his time in naming Audric Estime as Denver's lead running back. Another topic of interest is the expansion of Devaughn Vele's role on the team, with Payton noting that he sees a lot of potential in him, comparing him to former player Marques Colston.
In other news, the Broncos have also made the decision to waive tight end Greg Dulcich, a 2022 third-round pick, after he had been inactive for eight consecutive weeks. For more updates and news on the Broncos, make sure to sign up for the Broncos Insider to get all the latest NFL analysis.
