The Denver Broncos are waiving second-year running back Audric Estime, per Mike Klis of 9NEWS KUSA in Denver. Estime, the 2024 fifth-round pick out of Notre Dame, finds himself the odd man out in Denver’s revamped running back room.

According to ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler, the Denver Broncos have waived running back Blake Watson with an injury settlement. Watson suffered a PCL strain during their preseason finale victory over the Saints and now will hit the waiver wire.

In June, Sean Payton told reporters the words that’d come to define the Broncos’ backfield for two months: “Don’t start counting.”
