Just days after signing him to the practice squad, the Denver Broncos have elevated tight end Marcedes Lewis to the Week 9 gameday roster, along with wide receiver Michael Bandy. The 41-year-old Lewis is playing in his 20th NFL season, originally entering the NFL in 2006 as a Jacksonville Jaguars first-round draft pick.

Lucas Krull originally hoped to return from injured reserve after the minimum four weeks due to a foot injury, but instead, he ended up having surgery Monday to repair a metatarsal fracture. He’s now expected to miss in the neighborhood of eight more weeks, a source told The Denver Post, which means most of the remaining regular season.
