Overview
- Denver waived running back Deuce Vaughn on Tuesday following rookie minicamp and well ahead of training camp.
- Vaughn spent 2025 on the Broncos’ practice squad and later signed a reserve/future contract, yet he never played a regular-season snap for the team.
- A crowded depth chart features J.K. Dobbins, RJ Harvey, and rookie Jonah Coleman, with Jaleel McLaughlin and others in reserve roles.
- One report ties the move to a roster spot for wide receiver Michael Woods II, with Denver also adding cornerback Paul Manning and releasing cornerback Will Wright.
- At 5-foot-6 and 176 pounds, questions about his pass protection and every-down fit have persisted, and the 24-year-old is now a free agent seeking another opportunity.
