The Denver Broncos created room on the 90-man roster as they prepare for rookie minicamp, set for May 10-12 with OTAs right after.
Part of that preparation included some housekeeping, with the Broncos parting ways with fourth-year veteran quarterback Ben DiNucci. There are three other quarterbacks on the roster. DiNucci figured to be the odd man out when the battle for the starting job began.
There are but so many meaningful reps to go around, which DiNucci appears to understand.
“I have been released by the Broncos,” DiNucci posted on X on May 8. “All part of the journey !!
“Excited for what’s to come.”
DiNucci, 27 was a seventh-round pick by the Dallas Cowboys in 2020. He made three appearances with one start in his rookie season. But he has not taken a snap in a regular season game since then.
