Broncos Activate Dre Greenlaw for Week 7 vs. Giants After IR Stint

His managed return boosts the NFL’s top pass rush against a Giants team missing several starters.

Overview

  • Denver officially moved Dre Greenlaw to the 53-man roster following a summer quad injury, with coaches planning a limited snap count in his season debut.
  • Outside linebacker Jonah Elliss was ruled out with a shoulder injury, putting rookie Que Robinson in line for increased edge snaps.
  • To accommodate Greenlaw, the Broncos released QB Sam Ehlinger from the active roster and re-signed him to the practice squad.
  • Additional moves included placing Matt Peart and Garret Wallow on injured reserve, promoting Calvin Throckmorton, signing safety J.T. Gray, and releasing A.J. Woods and Thayer Thomas (injury settlement) from the practice squad.
  • New York will be without WR Darius Slayton, C John Michael Schmitz and DL Chauncey Golston, with LB Abdul Carter a game-time decision, narrowing options around rookie QB Jaxson Dart.
