ENGLEWOOD, Colo – It’s never easy to cut an NFL roster down to 53-players. Many players see their dreams crushed as the head coach alerts them that they will be released. Some players, though, get a second lease on their NFL life.

On Sunday morning, the Denver Broncos announced the signing of eight players to their 10-man practice squad:

Player Pos. College Exp.
Dillon Day C Mississippi State 1
Vontarrius Dora OLB Louisiana Tech R
Mose Frazier WR Memphis R
Henry Krieger-Coble TE Iowa R
Ryan Murphy S Oregon State 1
Justin Murray T Cincinnati R
Taurean Nixon CB Tulane 2
Juwan Thompson RB Duke 3

 

The team saw none of their released players claimed by other teams and still reserve two more spots to add more young players. They keep their options open to sign a free agent and demote one or more of their current 53 to the practice squad by only adding eight players.

UPDATE: The Broncos have signed undrafted rookie linebacker Kyle Kragen to the practice squad and expected to do the same with Kalif Raymond to fill out their 10-man squad.
