The Denver Broncos officially signed DB Gregory Junior to a contract on Sunday and waived DE Matt Henningsen with an injury designation.
Should Henningsen clear waivers tomorrow, he would revert to the team’s injured reserve list.
Henningsen suffered a season-ending Achilles tear during practice this week.
Henningsen, 26, is a former sixth-round pick of the Broncos out of Wisconsin back in 2022. He signed a four-year, $3.8 million contract with the Broncos.
However, Henningsen has been on and off of their roster ever since and agreed to a futures contract this past January.
For his career, Henningsen has appeared 34 games for the Broncos and recorded 40 tackles, a sack and two pass defenses.
