The Denver Broncos waived T Geron Christian and TE Marcedes Lewis and signed QB Sam Ehlinger to the active roster, per Chris Tomasson.
Ehlinger, 26, was a four-year starter at Texas, earning second-team All-Big 12 honors in 2020 and honorable mention in 2018-2019.
Ehlinger was selected by the Colts in the sixth round of the 2021 NFL Draft and signed a four-year deal worth $3,610,707 that also includes a $130,707 signing bonus.
He played out that deal and was testing the market as an unrestricted free agent when he signed on with the Broncos this offseason. Denver promoted him to the active roster in September.
In 2022, Ehlinger appeared in four games for the Colts and completed 64 of 101 pass attempts (63.4 percent) for 573 yards, three touchdowns, and three interceptions. He added 17 rush attempts for 87 yards.
