Broncos elevate 2 players from practice squad for 'TNF' vs. Seahawks
The Broncos called up two defensive backs from their practice squad for 'Thursday Night Football.'
The Denver Broncos have added two new players to their game-day roster for an upcoming Thursday Night Football matchup against the Seattle Seahawks. Cornerback Sean Fresch and safety Taylor Rapp were elevated from the practice squad, according to Mike Klis of KUSA-TV. Both players will return to the practice squad following the Thursday night game.
Freshman Fresch is making his second elevation, while rookie Rapp made his debut with Denver tonight. This move comes as cornerback Pat Surtain and safety Talanoa Hufanga, both with ankle injuries, are sidelined for the week. NFL teams are permitted to elevate two practice squad players to the game-day roster each week, though those players must clear waivers to return to the practice squad after the game.
The Broncos will face off against the Seahawks in a game that will be televised locally on KMGH and streamed on Prime and Twitch. The Broncos are considered slight underdogs for the week.
