Broncos Release Inactive Roster for Week 9 Clash with Texans

In a highly anticipated matchup, the Broncos have finalized their inactive roster for the Week 9 game against the Texans. This week’s game not only showcases the athletes but also brings significant roster changes due to injuries.

Active Roster Highlights

Veteran tight end Marcedes Lewis is geared up to make his debut with the Broncos. Lewis, who joined the team on Wednesday, was elevated from the practice squad just a day before the game. If he steps onto the field, he will set a record as the oldest player to compete in franchise history.

Another significant addition to the active roster is wide receiver Michael Bandy, who was elevated in response to injuries affecting other players.

Injuries Impacting the Team

The Broncos are facing some injury setbacks:

  • Tight end Nate Adkins is ruled out.
  • Wide receiver Marvin Mims Jr. will not play due to injury.
  • Cornerback Pat Surtain II is among the inactive players.
  • Safety P.J. Locke is also inactive due to injury.

Questionable Players

Offensive lineman Alex Palczewski, who was questionable on Saturday, has been confirmed active for the game. Additionally, defensive back J.T. Gray, signed prior to Week 7, is set to make his first appearance since joining the Broncos.
