The Denver Broncos have signed wide receiver Eli Pancol to their practice squad, the team announced Tuesday.
Pancol (6-3, 205 pounds) entered the league as an undrafted free agent out of Duke with the Jacksonville Jaguars in 2025. After being waived by the Jags with an injury designation, Pancol landed with the Indianapolis Colts , joining their practice squad in November of his rookie season.
Pancol, 26, went to training camp with Indy this summer and began the 2026 season on their practice squad before being released last week. He hauled in four receptions for 47 yards in preseason with the Colts this summer, but is yet to appear in a regular-season game in the NFL.
To make room for Pancol, the Broncos released defensive back Ugo Amadi from the practice squad.
