Broncos Roster Shake-Up: Fresch Out, Henley In
11 Nov
Summary
- Broncos waived Sean Fresch Jr. to add linebacker Daiyan Henley.
- Fresch was on the active roster as insurance at cornerback.
- Henley is expected to be the third inside linebacker immediately.

The Denver Broncos adjusted their 53-man roster by waiving defensive back Sean Fresch Jr. to make space for newly acquired inside linebacker Daiyan Henley. Fresch, who was undrafted in 2025 and joined the Broncos in June, had been promoted from the practice squad and debuted in Week 5. He also contributed as a kickoff returner, bringing back two kicks for 62 yards in their recent victory.
Fresch's departure allows the Broncos to bolster their linebacker position with Henley, who is expected to initially serve as the third inside linebacker. Henley is noted for his tackling ability and potential to compete for a starting role. This roster change occurs as the Broncos prepare to return from their Week 10 bye, with hopes of bolstering their cornerback depth as well.
