Broncos Activate OLB Derrek Tuszka, Promoting Three Players

According to Mike Klis, the Broncos activated OLB Derrek Tuszka from their injured reserve on Saturday. 

The Broncos also promoted TE Troy Fumagalli, LB Josh Watson, and S Alijah Holder from their practice squad to the active roster, per Klis

Tuszka, 23, was drafted by the Broncos in the seventh round out of North Dakota State in the 2020 NFL Draft. He signed a four-year, $3.4 million rookie deal but was waived coming out of camp and re-signed to the practice squad. 

Denver eventually promoted him to their practice squad in September but landed on injured reserve after a month. 

In 2020, Tuszka has appeared in five games and recorded three total tackles and one tackle for loss.
