The Broncos will waive wide receiver K.J. Hamler with a non-football illness designation, a source confirmed with the Post on Monday.
The procedural move comes after Hamler announced on Instagram that he was diagnosed with a mild heart irritation before the start of camp. He said in his Instagram post that he is being treated with medicine and taking “a quick break” to get his health situated.
Hamler was previously placed on the active/non-football injury list, as he continued to recover from a torn pectoral muscle. The door is still open for Hamler to return to Denver later in the season.
