  Lions | Detroit signs Austin Traylor    Mon Jul 22, 08:54 PM

Free-agent TE Austin Traylor (AAF) signed with the Detroit Lions Monday, July 22. Terms of the contract were not disclosed.

Footballguys view: Traylor spent some time with the Broncos and is mostly known for his size and blocking ability. The Lions are stacked at the position with Jesse James and rookie first-round pick T.J. Hockenson at the top of the depth chart. Traylor will be hard pressed to make the 53-man roster.

Denver Broncos LB Zaire Anderson, WR River Cracraft, WR Carlos Henderson, RB De'Angelo Henderson, OLB Jeff Holland, OT Leon Johnson, CB Brendan Langley, DT Caushaud Lyons, S Trey Marshall, WR Isaiah McKenzie, TE Brian Parker, DT Kyle Peko, OL Austin Schlottmann, LB Antonio Simmons, CB C.J. Smith, TE Austin Traylor, WR DeAndrew White and RB David Williams were waived Saturday, Sept. 1.

TE Troy Fumagalli (undisclosed) and LB Jerrol Garcia-Williams (knee) were placed on the Reserve/Injured list, while WR Jordan Taylor (hip) was placed on the Reserve/Physically Unable to Perform list.

Footballguys view: De'Angelo Henderson might be better than Devontae Booker. Don't be surprised if he gets claimed tomorrow.

  Broncos | Austin Traylor on the bubble?    Thu Aug 30, 01:38 PM

Denver Broncos TE Austin Traylor has a chance to secure the No. 3 tight end position with TE Troy Fumagali (groin) hurting. If Traylor can put together a good showing in the final preseason game then the odds are good he'll survive the final cut.

  Broncos | Austin Traylor not at practice    Mon Aug 13, 04:42 PM

Denver Broncos TE Austin Traylor (shoulder) was not present for practice Monday, Aug. 13, due to a sprained shoulder.

Footballguys view: Traylor has been getting most of the first-team reps with the Broncos in practice since Jeff Heuerman had been missing time. We see Jake Butt as a player to emerge at the position for the Broncos with Traylor trying to latch on as a reserve player.

  Broncos | Austin Traylor with first-team offense    Fri Aug 3, 07:40 PM

Denver Broncos TE Austin Traylor has been working as the No. 1 tight end during practice since TE Jeff Heuerman (knee) has been sidelined.

Footballguys view: Jake Butt is coming back from an ACL tear, but Traylor appears to be another longshot bet for fantasy relevance at tight end in Denver right now. The best bet is to avoid Broncos tight ends altogether.

  Broncos | A.J. Derby set free    Sat Nov 18, 12:19 PM

Denver Broncos TE A.J. Derby (shoulder) was waived with an injury designation Saturday, Nov. 18. TE Austin Traylor was promoted from the practice squad in a corresponding move.

Footballguys view: Derby did next to nothing after the Broncos traded for him last season. A sixth-round pick out of Arkansas in 2016 (Patriots), Derby plays like a wide receiver and isn't good at blocking. With his receiving ability, there might be a team willing to take a chance on him now that he's hit the open market. Traylor is a big body, and while he has decent hands, we're not expecting much from him now that he's been called up. He should play as a backup behind Virgil Green on Sunday.

  Broncos | Denver signs plethora of players    Mon Jan 2, 08:04 PM

Denver Broncos RB Zac Brooks, C Dillon Day, DE Iosia Iosia, OT Justin Murray, LS Jeff Overbaugh, RB Bernard Pierce, DL Travis Raciti, TE Steven Scheu, WR Hunter Sharp, LB Kevin Snyder and TE Austin Traylor were signed to Reserve/Futures contracts Monday, Jan. 2.

Footballguys view: Brooks is the most interesting player to watch. A seventh-round pick (Seahawks) out of Clemson in 2016, Brooks is a swift runner with decent ability as a receiver in the open field. He'll compete for a spot in the RB corps next year for the Broncos, but his best role is that of a change-of-pace back.

  Broncos | Denver signs Austin Traylor    Tue Dec 20, 08:39 PM

Free-agent TE Austin Traylor (Ravens) was signed to the Denver Broncos' practice squad Tuesday, Dec. 20.

Footballguys view: The undrafted rookie out of Wisconsin was originally signed by the Dallas Cowboys. They decided to release him and he landed on the Chargers practice squad. He then was released and wound up with the Patriots for a brief stint and then with the Ravens. Now, Traylor is with the Broncos as they are thin at the position with A.J. Derby and Virgil Green both in the concussion protocol this week. During his college career with the Badgers, Traylor caught 17 passes for 234 yards receiving and four touchdowns.

  Ravens | Baltimore adds David Fales to PS    Sat Nov 19, 01:06 PM

Free-agent QB David Fales (Ravens) was signed to the Baltimore Ravens practice squad Saturday, Nov. 19. The team also released TE Austin Traylor from their practice squad.

Footballguys view: Fales is just a scout-team arm. He has great anticipation as a passer, but his arm is weak and he's bounced around the league while failing to latch on with a team.
