The Denver Broncos made significant roster changes by releasing inside linebacker Kristian Welch and waiving safety Tanner McCalister. These moves come as the team prepares to activate right tackle Mike McGlinchey and outside linebacker Baron Browning from injured reserve.

Welch, who joined the Broncos from the Green Bay Packers, played in six games this season, primarily on special teams. McCalister, an undrafted player from Ohio State, had limited impact during his time with the team.
