Broncos make roster moves

Sep 05, 2009

On Friday, the Broncos made several moves to begin trimming their roster down to the NFL-mandated size of 53 players. One day after closing out its preseason slate with a 19-0 victory over the Arizona Cardinals, the team released nine players and placed Matt McChesney on the reserve/injured list. Like the rest of their NFL counterparts, the Broncos must cut their roster down to that regular season limit by Saturday afternoon.

The nine players released were Matthias Askew, Kory Lichtensteiger, Ingle Martin, Rashod Moulton, Clint Oldenburg, Carlton Powell, Lee Robinson, Nate Swift and running back Marcus Thomas.

“I will be playing on Sunday. Very excited, can’t pass up playing the Packers. I will be out there for sure.”

George Kittle says he’s good to go for Sunday

Related Players: Eric Saubert

Fantasy Impact:

Kittle returns to a great matchup against a Packers defense that ranks 26th in TE aFPA. He should be fired up as a high-end TE1 once again.

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer

Fantasy Impact:

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
