Broncos Add Veteran Wide Receiver to Practice Squad
The Denver Broncos have made a significant addition to their roster by signing veteran wide receiver Elijah Moore to their practice squad. This decision comes shortly after Moore’s visit to the team’s facility on Monday.
Elijah Moore: A Brief Overview
Elijah Moore, standing 5 feet 10 inches tall and weighing 180 pounds, was selected by the New York Jets in the second round of the 2021 NFL Draft. He played college football at Ole Miss before entering the NFL.
Career Highlights
- Drafted by the New York Jets in 2021.
- Traded to the Cleveland Browns after two seasons in New York.
- Accumulated 200 receptions for 2,162 yards and nine touchdowns in his first four seasons.
- Signed a one-year deal with the Buffalo Bills in the spring of 2023.
- Recorded nine receptions for 112 yards over nine games with the Bills.
Current Situation with the Broncos
Moore is looking for a fresh start with his fourth NFL team. To accommodate his addition, the Broncos will need to make a corresponding move on their roster.
Potential Roster Moves
One of the following players may be released to create space for Moore:
- Michael Bandy
- A.T. Perry
- Kyrese Rowan
Among these, Kyrese Rowan appears to be the most likely candidate for the cut. Currently, the Broncos have five wide receivers on their active roster: Courtland Sutton, Pat Bryant, Marvin Mims, Troy Franklin, and Lil’Jordan Humphrey.
Looking Ahead
If Moore can perform well, he could be promoted to the Broncos’ 53-man roster later in the season. His experience and skills might be a valuable asset as the team looks to enhance its offensive capabilities.
