Overview
- Taylor Rapp was released Wednesday after joining the Broncos earlier this week, ending a stay in Denver that lasted under seven days.
- Denver added defensive tackle Israel Antwine and offensive tackle Foster Sarell as part of the same roster series and waived wide receiver Kyree Duplessis to make room.
- Rapp is a 2019 second-round pick, a Super Bowl winner with the Rams, and spent recent seasons with the Bills while recovering from knee surgery in 2025 before being medically cleared for this tryout.
- Coaches’ recent praise for younger options such as JL Skinner and the presence of starters Talanoa Hufanga and Brandon Jones reduced the need for a veteran audition at safety during final preseason evaluations.
- Rapp is now a free agent and the move leaves the Broncos finalizing depth ahead of the preseason finale and the regular season, with the team likely still weighing practice-squad or short-term veteran options if needed.
