The Denver Broncos made multiple changes to their practice squad last week.

First, Denver signed back Jaret Patterson, defensive back Ugo Amadi and defensive tackle Jordan Miller, and they released wide receivers Eli Pancol and Cam Ross in corresponding moves. After that, the Broncos promoted cornerback Sean Fresch to the 53-man roster and demoted safety Taylor Rapp to the practice squad.

This week, Denver cut Fresch from the active roster to make room for new linebacker Daiyan Henley. After that, the Broncos cut Amadi from the practice squad. That's presumably a sign that Fresch will be re-signed to the practice squad if he clears waivers.

With running backs RJ Harvey (knee) and Tyler Badie (thumb) both on injured reserve, Patterson and Cody Schrader provide more depth at the position from the practice squad. Badie will be eligible to return from IR in Week 12, and Harvey can return in Week 13.

In addition to a 53-man roster and a 17-player practice squad, Denver also has nine players on injured reserve. That's 79 total players under contract with the Broncos this season.
