Broncos made 2 roster moves Tuesday (meet their new tight end)

With the second week of organized team activities kicking off, the Denver Broncos made a pair of roster moves on Tuesday.

First, Denver waived tight end Cole Fotheringham with an injury designation, the team announced. Fotheringham, 27, joined the team last month after a successful tryout at rookie minicamp. He’ll now head to the waiver wire.

Second, the Broncos filled Fotheringham’s former spot on the 90-man offseason roster by signing free agent tight end Caden Prieskorn, who went undrafted in April and originally signed with the Detroit Lions. Following a four-day minicamp stint in Detroit last month, Prieskorn will now get an opportunity in Denver.

Prieskorn (6-6, 246 pounds) spent four seasons at Memphis and then transferred to Ole Miss, where he played from 2023-2024. He totaled 57 receptions for 850 yards and seven touchdowns in 23 games with the Rebels. He will join a Broncos tight end room that includes Evan Engram, Adam Trautman, Nate Adkins, Lucas Krull and fellow rookie Caleb Lohner.
