- Broncos roster series: No. 26, DB Devon Key
Broncos Wire's 90-man offseason roster series continues today with a look at fourth-year defensive back Devon Key , No. 26 ( formerly No. 38 ).
Before the Broncos: Key (6-0, 208 pounds) entered the league as an undrafted free agent out of Western Kentucky with the Kansas City Chiefs in 2021. After spending his rookie season on KC's practice squad, Key had a short stint on the practice squad of the Atlanta Falcons in 2022.

Broncos tenure: Key was waived by the Falcons one week after they signed him, and Denver then signed the safety to its own practice squad in 2022. He has spent most of the last two seasons on the Broncos' reserve squad. Key was elevated to the game-day roster for Denver's 2023 season finale and played 13 snaps on special teams.
Chances to make the 53-man roster: Low. Competing for a spot in a crowded secondary , Key will face long odds to make the active roster. He is likely a candidate to once again have a role on the practice squad.
