Mike Klis reports that the Broncos have placed WR Brandon Johnson on injured reserve with a hamstring and elevated WR Tre’Quan Smith to their active roster for Week 8.
Smith, 26, is a former third-round pick of the Saints back in 2018. He finished the final year of his four-year, $3,277,024 rookie contract that included an $817,024 signing bonus before signing a two-year, $6 million contract with the Saints last year.
Smith was placed on injured reserve coming out of the preseason.
The Saints waived him earlier this week from the injured reserve list with a settlement.
In 2022, Smith appeared in 15 games for the Saints and caught 19 passes for 278 yards receiving and a touchdown.
