After making 27 roster moves over the last two days, the Denver Broncos have finalized an initial 53-man roster for the 2022 NFL season.
The key word is initial, as this 53-man squad is subject to change in the coming days. NFL teams can claim players off waivers on Wednesday morning and it wouldn’t be surprising to see Denver add one or more players to the team.
To make room for any potential waiver wire additions, the Broncos would have to cut someone on the initial 53 (or move a player to injured reserve).
So while keeping in mind that more changes could be on the way, here’s a look at Denver’s initial 53-man roster ahead of the regular season.
