The Denver Broncos are as healthy as a team can be to start the season on the road against the Seattle Seahawks, so their inactives here are players not yet ready for gameday action. Veteran fullback Michael Burton and wide receiver Lil’Jordan Humphrey were both elevated from the practice squad as well.
Zach Wilson is the emergency quarterback for this game, but rookies Troy Franklin, Black Watson, Kris Abrams-Draine, and Frank Crum are all being developed and will likely be inactive here early in the season at least. As for Uwazurike, it makes sense for him to be inactive as he works back into football after a year-long suspension.
