Overview

  • The move came Monday as part of roster cuts that also included rookie undrafted guard Xavier Truss, per a team announcement.
  • 9News’ Mike Klis reported the waiver, which will process by 11 a.m. CT Wednesday.
  • Rookie R.J. Harvey impressed through camp to pair with J.K. Dobbins, narrowing opportunities for Estime.
  • The Broncos are interested in re-signing Estime to the practice squad if he is not claimed, according to the Denver Gazette’s Chris Tomasson.
  • Estime ran for 310 yards and two touchdowns as a rookie, lost snaps after two fumbles, and has no guarantees left on a deal paying $960,000 this year.
