Broncos cut to 53

Waived:

QB Adam Weber

-- No real surprise here. Hopefully, he'll be back on the practice squad.

RB Jeremiah Johnson

FB Austin Sylvester

-- Surprised the team cut Johnson. Maybe he'll also be back on the practice squad. The team obviously has bigger concerns elsewhere.

WR Britt Davis
WR D'Andre Goodwin

WR Greg Orton

WR Eron Riley

-- Thought maybe Davis would make the team, but Jamel Hamler did instead.

TE Dan Gronkowski

-- The team kept Virgil Green instead. That was the right move IMO.

G Jeff Byers
G Stanley Daniels

G Eric Olsen

T Adam Grant

-- Pretty much what was expected.

DE Jeremy Beal

DT Ronnell Brown
DT Jeremy Jarmon

DT DeMario Pressley

-- The team kept 10, which was probably necessary with all the concerns at DT. Kept Jason Hunter and Mitch Unrein instead of Jarmon. Slight surprise Jarmon is gone.

LB Alvin Bowen

LB Lee Robinson

-- Team kept Mike Mohamed over Bowen. Hindsight 20/20, probably the right move.

CB Brandon Bing
CB Perrish Cox
S Kyle McCarty

-- Cox is the big name here. Team apparently doesn't want to deal with his legal issues. Can't blame them. Syd'Quan Thompson's injury forced them to keep another player.

PK Steven Hauschka
-- Well, duh. When you've got Matt Prater's leg why keep two kickers.

Released:

WR David Anderson

TE Dante Rosario

-- Disappointed to see Anderson move on. The Colorado St. alum is a local favorite, but there just wasn't any room for him here.

Placed on IR:
WR Jamel Hamler
RB Brandon Miner
CB Syd'Quan Thompson
