The Denver Broncos will have to make at least one roster decision this week.
After letting the deadline for pass for Delarrin Turner-Yell (ACL) to return from the physically unable to perform list last week, the Broncos will keep Turner-Yell on the PUP list for the rest of the season.
Denver now has to make a decision on linebacker Drew Sanders (Achilles), who has to be activated from the PUP list by Wednesday. If he’s not activated, Sanders will also be shut down for the rest of the season.
Meanwhile, Broncos wide receiver Josh Reynolds (finger) has one more week to return from injured reserve, and running back Tyler Badie (back) is yet to return to practice.
Here’s a look at the team’s IR/PUP players going into Week 13.
Broncos eligible to return from IR/PUP
- LB Drew Sanders: Deadline to return is Nov. 27
- WR Josh Reynolds: Deadline to return is Dec. 4
- RB Tyler Badie: Eligible to return to practice
The Broncos also have two players — linebacker Alex Singleton (ACL) and offensive lineman Quinn Bailey (ankle) — who are on season-ending IR.

- LB Alex Singleton: Out for season
- OL Quinn Bailey: Out for season
Denver linebacker Kwon Alexander is also out of practice squad elevations, and he seems likely to end up on the 53-man roster at some point this season. The Broncos will have to make some tough decisions to make room for returning players in the coming weeks.
