The Denver Broncos have officially announced their 17-player practice squad for the 2026 NFL season.
The Broncos confirmed the previously reported 17 signings on Monday, and there are two notable absences: tight end Justin Joly (a fifth-round draft pick) and cornerback Reese Taylor, who were both claimed off waivers
by the Miami Dolphins. They likely would have been top practice squad targets had they cleared waivers.Among the notable players Denver retained are linebacker Red Murdock (a seventh-round pick), safety Miles Scott (a seventh-round pick), undrafted returner Kolbe Katsis, and offensive linemen Calvin Throckmorton, Tyler Miller and Gavin Ortega.
