The Broncos have just announced that wide receiver Brandon Stokley, defensive end Jarvis Green and outside linebacker Darrell Reid have been cut from the team.
They also made official that Elvis Dumervil will be placed on injured reserve. Dumervil called the decision mutual.
With the selection of Eric Decker in April’s draft and the increasingly significant play of undrafted rookie receiver Matthew Willis, coupled with a groin injury that kept him out of the last three weeks of the preseason Stokley found himself on the wrong end of the depth chart. I had predicted in early August that Stokley wouldn’t make the team.
Green is also a surprise cut, but the writing was on the wall with his limited playing time in the preseason.
Keep it tuned here as we will bring you the news as we get it as the Broncos trim their roster to 53.
