Broncos cornerback Riley Moss active for game against Seahawks

The Denver Broncos bolstered their secondary by declaring cornerback Riley Moss active for Thursday night's matchup against the Seattle Seahawks. The Broncos are currently without star cornerback Pat Surtain II and safety Talanoa Hufanga, both of whom are nursing ankle injuries. Moss recently suffered a rib injury in a loss to San Francisco on October 4 and missed last weekend's game in Los Angeles against the Chargers.

Despite his setback, Moss is expected to see significant playing time covering Seahawks star receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba, who had been limited in practice due to an ankle ailment but was cleared for action. To further strengthen their defense, the Broncos promoted cornerback Sean Fresch Jr. and safety Taylor Rapp. Fresch, with prior experience in the UFL, and Rapp, who boasts 12 interceptions and four fumble recoveries in his career with the Los Angeles Rams and Buffalo Bills, will provide additional depth to the Broncos' defensive lineup.
