On Friday, as the team trims its roster to 53 players, the Broncos placed defensive end Jeremy Beal on injured reserve.
Beal suffered a left knee injury in Thursday night’s preseason win against the Arizona Cardinals.
A seventh-round pick in the 2011 NFL Draft, Beal spent last season on the team’s practice squad.
During the preseason, Beal was making his presence felt along the defensive line as he notched five tackles, two sacks, three tackles for loss, two quarterback hits and a pass defensed.
The University of Oklahoma product is the fifth player the Broncos have placed on injured reserve in 2012, joining fellow defensive end Jason Hunter, running back Mario Fannin and wide receivers D’Andre Goodwin and Tyler Grisham.
The club’s roster now stands at 74 players, meaning there are still 21 transactions that must be completed by 7 p.m. MDT this evening to get to the NFL-mandated limit of 53 players.

If Ball doesn`t, that will be a surprise. IMO
Bruton? AKA, the “speed demon” ST, backup safety….
mcmcnees – Ball will make the 53 man squad.
Royal, we`re in this together. LOL
Weber should also clear and make PS.
You bet strand…lol.
That’s my hope with Weber, I really like that guy.
As much as I dont like Fumbles I think he makes it….. unfortunately.
Weber reminds me of Flutie. I like him also.
Like they said – Broncos may carry 4 rb’s but 5 players will be deactivated during season, so not all RB’s may be available. 2 or 3 per game.
So your RB’s look like this…. McGahee, Moreno, Ball, Hillman, Gronk…. JJ on PS, That’s a 10% of our roster.
Yeah – sounds like it’s going to be 5 total including Gronk is what they’re saying….
Eddie Mac says if we keep 3 qb’s, that could reduce RB’s to total of three.
Yo @WillisMcGahee, tell Peyton I need a job
@DonteStallworth Donte Stallworth
goget em boys!
saw that on nfl com skillz I thought it was pretty funny
Skillz we are reportedly looking for another vet WR to play behind Decker DMT and Stokley
Whasssuuuup Broncos Country??????????
How goes it SEC!!!!! Jackson sure is a beast!!!!!
I can see that happening. We need sure hand WR`s. A vet might be where they go to solidify themselves deep at WR.
Getting ready to watch Tennessee put a whooping on NC State!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Holy Shnikeys! Its Sec! Hows it going bro?!
i saw that tweet ab and would like him better than caldwell or hill
ab,I said Malik Jackson was a Beast……I don’t lie,lol.
Great strand,how bout you my bro?
I would like him over Caldwell Hill and even Willis
You guys see us keeping 3 qbs? Seems to make sense because Brock is young… but keeping Hanie? I don’t see that. Some other vet I would guess. Caleb did not play great. Luke warm..
SEC yea you did!!! I was happily surprised seeing his play!
Alright guys I’m watching the Vols play,be back on later……
I`m up for some Pro NFL Football dude!!! BRONCOS 2012!!!!!
Drayton Florence just got released…
I didn’t see that coming.
Robert Ayers Jr @1_900_ayersjr
VFL… #letgo
Surprised about Florence.
Wow! Florence released. Oh Man!
Ayers…. ? What’s VFL? I don’t get code speak.
I don`t either! Whats up with Ayers?
The “#Letgo hash tag makes me think he’s a goner… but that doesn’t make a whole lot of sense right this second….
I dont know what VFL means and I asked him if he was cut. No response yet.
Thanks AB!
florence maybe squid took his spot
That means Squid has a xhance at the roster. its him or Carter for the final CB.
Where are you guys getting all this up-to-second information?>
VFL is Vols For Life
Vols for Life – VFL.
So far its Weber, Garland, Florence, Hunter, DJ Williams, V. Green, and Tribue. Thats 7 players so far.
Twitter.
VFL means Vols for Life and I think let go was meant to be lets go. Hes psyched up for them
Florence was not that good and Harris was and Syd can work ST
And what does Vols for Life mean?
alaska, did you see @postbroncos tweet. I asked her to clear up Ayers tweet…
VFL = Vols for Life… Supposedly psyched for College ball.
Robert Ayers played for the Tennessee Vols in college.
