Broncos signing ex-Chargers TE Donald Parham to practice squad

The Denver Broncos are signing former Los Angeles Chargers tight end Donald Parham to their practice squad, according to a report from ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler.

Parham (6-8, 237 pounds) entered the NFL as an undrafted free agent out of Stetson with the Detroit Lions in 2019. He later spent time with the now-Washington Commanders and then spent the 2020 XFL spring season playing with the Arlington Renegades.

After being named to the mid-season All-XFL team, Parham signed with the Chargers when the spring league suspended operations due to COVID-19. Parham went on to spend the last four years in L.A., hauling in 67 receptions for 764 yards and 11 touchdowns in 47 games (23 starts).

Parham will now serve as Denver’s fifth tight end from the practice squad, joining a room that includes Adam Trautman, Greg Dulcich, Lucas Krull and Nate Adkins. Players on the practice squad are eligible to be elevated to the game-day roster three times during the season.
