The Broncos are releasing wide receiver Nick Williams, as Ryan O’Halloran of the Denver Post tweets. With that, the Broncos’ roster is now at 87, three shy of the present 90-man max.
The Broncos have spent Monday doing some cleanup in advance of Saturday’s 53-man deadline. There’s still tons of work to go, but the Broncos have already released linebacker Dekoda Watson, defensive lineman Zach Kerr, and Williams, giving all three players a head start on their job hunt. The releases of Kerr and Watson freed up significant cap room, but Williams’ release will have little impact on the club’s finances.
Williams appeared in two games for the Titans early on last year, but was let go after dropping a would-be go-ahead touchdown pass against the Bills. The 28-year-old then hooked on with the Rams where he caught two passes for 17 yards in two games. The Broncos signed Willams in late July, but his Denver run is up after just one month.
