NFL Journal: Kendall Hinton’s journey to being a counted-on WR for the Broncos

Eleven things about the Broncos as they travel to Carolina to take on the Panthers on Sunday.

1. Broncos wide receiver Kendall Hinton started the season on the team’s practice squad and wasn’t signed to the 53-man roster until Oct. 10. Even still, he’s played the third-most snaps among Broncos receivers and has been essentially the team’s No. 2 receiver for the past two games without Jerry Jeudy. He stepped into Jeudy’s place on the first snap against Tennessee and played that spot without any practice reps there. He’s been on the field for 135 of 144 snaps the past two games and has seven catches for 119 yards over that span.
