SEATTLE — The Broncos have announced their list of inactive players for their Week 1 game against the Seahawks.
The following players are inactive for Denver: Quarterback Zach Wilson (emergency third quarterback), wide receiver Troy Franklin, running back Blake Watson, cornerback Kris Abrams-Draine, tackle Frank Crum, tight end Lucas Krull and defensive lineman Eyioma Uwazurike.
Under NFL rules, teams are permitted to designate a quarterback on their active roster as the emergency third quarterback. Wilson will dress for the game but will be permitted to play only if quarterbacks Bo Nix and Jarrett Stidham suffer injuries.
Four of the Broncos' six rookie draft picks on their 53-man roster are active for Sunday's game, as Nix, outside linebacker Jonah Elliss, running back Audric Estime and wide receiver Devaughn Vele are active in Week 1 of their rookie careers.
Denver previously elevated fullback Mike Burton and wide receiver Lil'Jordan Humphrey from the practice squad, and both players are active for the game.
The Broncos did not rule any players out for the game due to injury.
