Michael Woods, wide receiver for the Denver Broncos, has been placed on season-ending injured reserve after clearing waivers. Woods was waived by the team due to an injury designation and will not be eligible to play this season unless he reaches an injury settlement. The Broncos also waived cornerback Paul Manning, who has since received an injury settlement and is now a free agent. In response to these injuries, the Broncos signed wide receiver Hakeem Butler and cornerback/returner Sean Fresch to their offseason roster. The team recently completed Day 2 of mandatory minicamp, with players now taking a break until later in the summer.
