The Denver Broncos have released an updated depth chart ahead of a Sunday Night Football showdown with the Washington Commanders in Week 13.
The Broncos made a host of roster moves before their bye, including adding wide receiver Lil'Jordan Humphrey and offensive lineman Geron Christian, as well as promoting cornerback Reese Taylor from the practice squad to the active roster and releasing receiver Trent Sherfield. Following those transactions (and more), Denver has updated this week's depth chart.

Denver Broncos Depth Chart
Quarterback (2)
QB1: Bo Nix
QB2: Jarrett Stidham
Denver also has Sam Ehlinger on the practice squad.
Running back (3)
RB1: R.J. Harvey
RB2: Tyler Badie
RB3: Jaleel McLaughlin
Denver also has Deuce Vaughn available on the practice squad.
Tight end/fullback (4)
TE1: Evan Engram
TE2: Adam Trautman
TE3: Nate Adkins
FB: Adam Prentice
Marcedes Lewis was elevated from the practice squad for the last three games while Adkins was sidelined with a knee injury. We'll see if Adkins is able to return in time for SNF.

WR1: Courtland Sutton, Pat Bryant, Lil'Jordan Humphrey
WR2: Marvin Mims, Troy Franklin
The Broncos cut Trent Sherfield last week, replacing him with Lil'Jordan Humphrey, a familiar face.
Offensive line (8)
LT: Garett Bolles, Geron Christian
LG: Alex Palczewski, Calvin Throckmorton
C: Luke Wattenberg, Alex Forsyth
RG: Quinn Meinerz, Alex Palczewski
RT: Mike McGlinchey, Frank Crum,
Palczewski is also listed as the backup right guard despite starting at left guard. In reality, if Denver needed another guard to step in, Throckmorton would presumably be the top backup for both spots.
Defensive line (7)
DE: Zach Allen, Jordan Jackson
DT: D.J. Jones, Malcolm Roach
DE: John Franklin-Myers, Eyioma Uwazurike, Sai'vion Jones
Roach is perhaps one of the best "backup" defensive linemen in the NFL.
Outside linebacker (5)
OLB1: Jonathon Cooper, Jonah Elliss
OLB2: Nik Bonitto, Dondrea Tillman, Que Robinson
Que Robinson has made four appearances so far this season, totaling a half-sack on 105 snaps.
Inside linebacker (5)
ILB: Alex Singleton, Garret Wallow
ILB: Dre Greenlaw, Justin Strnad
Alex Singleton underwent successful surgery for testicular cancer after Week 10, and Justin Strnad started in his place last week. Denver's optimistic that Singleton will be able to return in Week 13.

CB1: Pat Surtain, Jahdae Barron, Reese Taylor
CB2: Riley Moss, Kris Abrams-Draine,
Slot: Ja'Quan McMillian, Jahdae Barron
Surtain missed the last three games with a pectoral injury. Barron is listed as the backup behind Surtain, but Abrams-Draine has received a majority of the snaps in that spot while Barron rotates in.
Safety (5)
S: Brandon Jones, Devon Key
S: Talanoa Hufanga, P.J. Locke, JL Skinner
Key, Skinner and Locke have played almost exclusively on special teams this season.
Special teams (3)
K: Wil Lutz
P: Jeremy Crawshaw
LS: Mitchell Fraboni
KR: Marvin Mims, Jaleel McLaughlin, Tyler Badie
PR: Marvin Mims, Riley Moss
After missing two games while in concussion protocol, Mims made a big impact in his return to action, returning three punts for 101 yards in a 22-19 win over the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 11.
