Broncos designate rookie RB Jonah Coleman for return from injured reserve

Denver has opened Coleman’s 21-day practice window, making him eligible to be activated to the 53-man roster and potentially play as soon as Week 7 against Arizona.

The Denver Broncos designated rookie running back Jonah Coleman for return from injured reserve, the team announced Wednesday.

Coleman participated in practice on Wednesday, and he is eligible to be activated to Denver’s 53-man roster at any point in the next 21 days.

If the Broncos activate Coleman, he would be eligible to play immediately, with the earliest opportunity coming in Denver’s Week 7 game against the Arizona Cardinals.

The Broncos placed Coleman on injured reserve ahead of Week 3 after an ankle injury suffered in their Week 2 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars.

During that Week 2 game, Coleman led the team in rushing yards and scored the first touchdown of his NFL career, and he also appeared in Denver’s Week 1 matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs.

Denver also previously designated Frank Crum and tight end Caleb Lohner for return this season when it set its initial 53-man roster, though their practice windows have not yet been opened.

Why It Matters

  • The move puts another rookie running option on Denver’s active roster timeline, potentially tightening the team’s depth at a key position as the season enters its mid-stretch.
  • Coleman’s earliest possible return lines up with Week 7, giving the Broncos a near-term decision point on how quickly to incorporate him after his ankle injury.
  • Denver’s use of multiple return designations suggests the team is managing several roster-recovery windows simultaneously as it looks to stabilize its personnel.
