Broncos Waive Veteran WR Josh Reynolds After Injury Recovery
The Denver Broncos opted to release Josh Reynolds as his practice window expired, prioritizing younger talent in their wide receiver rotation.
- Josh Reynolds, 29, was waived by the Denver Broncos after recovering from a fractured finger sustained in Week 5 against the Raiders.
- The wide receiver had been on injured reserve and practiced for three weeks, but the team chose not to activate him to the 53-man roster.
- Reynolds played five games for Denver this season, recording 12 catches for 183 yards and one touchdown before his injury.
- The Broncos' decision reflects a focus on younger players, with rookies Devaughn Vele and Troy Franklin stepping into larger roles alongside Marvin Mims Jr. and Courtland Sutton.
- Reynolds, a veteran of multiple teams, will enter waivers and could become a free agent if unclaimed, with $4.25 million in guaranteed pay from his two-year contract.
