The Denver Broncos have officially signed wide receiver Michael Bandy to a reserve/future contract, as noted in the NFL transaction wire. This move comes on the heels of the team's season-ending defeat against the Buffalo Bills, during which they secured 13 other players to futures deals, including offensive linemen Nick Gargiulo, Calvin Throckmorton, and Will Sherman.

In addition to Bandy, the Broncos have also signed tight end Thomas Yassmin, wide receiver A.T. Perry, defensive lineman Matt Henningsen, and several others as they prepare for the next season. Bandy, who is 5-foot-10 and 190 pounds, has been with the Broncos primarily on the practice squad since 2023, following his previous tenures with the Los Angeles Chargers and the Houston Roughnecks in the XFL.

During the last preseason, Bandy participated in all three games, accumulating 48 receiving yards on three receptions. Although he was waived during final roster cuts in August, he was quickly re-signed to the practice squad, where he remained for the rest of the season. Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton praised the depth that players like Bandy and A.T. Perry bring to the team, emphasizing the importance of having experienced individuals to mentor younger talent.
