The Broncos have released TE Greg Dulcich and their 2022 third-round draft pick, as he has not played in eight consecutive games.

Greg Dulcich, a talented tight end, has unfortunately reached the end of his time with the Broncos. It was announced on Monday that the team had waived him, marking the end of his third year with the team. This came as no surprise, as he had been a healthy scratch since Week 5 due to a slow start to the regular season.

During his rookie year, Dulcich had shown great potential, catching 33 passes for 411 yards and scoring two touchdowns. However, he faced several challenges, including hamstring injuries that plagued him throughout the season. These injuries continued into his second year, with multiple right hamstring injuries preventing him from completing games in a healthy state.

Despite these setbacks, Dulcich remained confident that his hard work during the offseason would pay off and he would return to his role as a playmaker. During training camp, he showed signs of a potential comeback, with head coach Sean Payton praising his growth and confidence on the field.

Unfortunately, this next step never materialized for Dulcich. He was active for the first four games of the season but only caught five passes for 28 yards. Eventually, he was replaced on the game day roster by Lucas Krull. While Krull has not been exceptional, he, along with Adam Trautman and Nate Adkins, have formed a solid rotation at the tight end position. Additionally, the Broncos have veteran Donald Parham on their practice squad as a reliable pass-catcher and red zone target.

Dulcich will now have the opportunity to be claimed by any team on waivers, with the remaining year of his rookie contract. If he clears waivers on Tuesday, he will be free to sign with any team he chooses.

Meanwhile, the Broncos have some important roster decisions to make. They must either activate linebacker Drew Sanders from the PUP list before Wednesday or place him on the injured reserve for the rest of the season. They also have a similar decision to make with receiver Josh Reynolds by December 4th. This will require a spot to be open on the 53-man roster, which is now available with the release of Dulcich.
