The Denver Broncos are now on the clock to get the roster down to 53 men that they believe give them the best chance to go far this season. For a few of the players on the roster, their NFL dream could take a slight turn in the road or it could be the end of the road.
Predominantly Orange is going to keep Broncos Country updated with any updates that come in with our live tracker. The team has until 4 PM EST to get the roster down to then.
Here is the update of the players that have been released/waived by the Broncos so far.
ILB Steven Johnson
G Ben Garland
CB Tony Carter
WR Corbin Lokus
TE Dominique Jones
TE Marcel Jensen
RB Kapri Bibbs
C Dillion Day
Updates:
C.J. Anderson went to Twitter Friday afternoon to make his announcement. However, we all knew that he was a lock to make the roster. But it is still worth mentioning.

John Elway and Gary Kubiak are set to meet the media at 1 PM MST to discuss the roster. This could mean that the team is close, if not finished, with the roster.

Mike Kils has reported that there will be 20 cuts today. Montee Ball will NOT be one of them.
The first moves have been made. Steven Johnson and Dominique Jones have tweeted out farewells.
Denver it's been a fun ride while it lasted but God has other plans for me time to see what's next!!!!!!

Marcel Jensen is now out.
It appears that Juwan Thompson has made the final roster. Good for him. He kept the UDFA trend going last year.
I was thanking the man above for waking me up this morning that's all. Never promised tomorrow hence "Thank you 🙏🏽"

Corbin Lokus just tweeted his farewell. I believe he will be a strong practice squad candidate.
Want to thank the @Broncos organization for the opportunity to play the game I love. God's plan for what's next. Best of luck to you guys.

Ben Garland has tweeted his farewell. Such a shock. Remember that he started training camp as the starting left guard. Big surprise here in my opinion.
Blessed to of had the opportunity to play for the Broncos. Class act organization top to bottom,God has a plan for me pic.twitter.com/McFCuQ80K0

The fan favorite Kapri Bibbs is now let go, according to Vic Lombardi.
Kapri Bibbs released. I'm sure Broncos would practice squad him if not snatched up. This assures Montee Ball makes the team, for now.

Dillion Day becomes the next Bronco cut. He is eligible for the practice squad.
It appears that the Broncos are going to go with three quarterbacks. Trevor Siemian has made the team.
Sounds like the #Broncos are keeping 3 QBs, with the final one being Trevor Siemian, a rookie from Northwestern.

Tony Carter has been let go, according to Josina Anderson.
