Broncos elevate WR Lil' Jordan Humphrey, FB Michael Burton to face Seahawks

SEATTLE – The Broncos on Saturday officially elevated wide receiver Lil'Jordan Humphrey and fullback Michael Burton from the practice squad to the active roster to face the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday at Lumen Field.

The Denver Gazette had reported after both were released on Aug. 27 and signed Aug. 28 to the practice squad that both would be elevated for the opener.

The Broncos this week listed Humphrey as a second-team receiver and Burton as the first-team fullback on the unofficial depth chart.

Both players can be elevated up to three times this season off the practice squad. To play in a fourth game, either player would need to be signed to the active roster.
