The Broncos signed Watson to the practice squad Saturday. Watson was waived by the Broncos on Thursday after being a healthy scratch in five of Denver's six regular-season games. He had the option of joining another team in need of backfield depth after clearing waivers, but the 25-year-old running back has opted to stick around on the Broncos' practice squad.
-
Watson (coach's decision) is listed as inactive for Sunday's game at the Buccaneers. Watson will have to wait at least one more week to make his NFL debut. In his stead, Tyler Badie will suit up for the second straight week to serve as Denver's third option out of the backfield.

Watson is expected to be active for the Broncos' Week 2 game against the Steelers on Sunday after Audric Estime (ankle) was placed on injured reserve, Chris Tomasson of The Denver Gazette reports. The Broncos went with three running backs for the regular-season opener against the Seahawks, which left Watson as a healthy inactive behind Javonte Williams, Jaleel McLaughlin and Estime. With Estime set to miss at least the next four regular-season games while on IR, Watson will slide into the No. 3 role in the backfield behind Williams and McLaughlin for Sunday's game against Pittsburgh. Watson played in all three of Denver's preseason games and turned 26 carries into 84 yards and one touchdown and added two catches for 46 yards.

Watson (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's Week 1 matchup against the Seahawks. Watson is clearly behind Javonte Williams, Jaleel McLaughlin and rookie fifth-round pick Audric Estime on the running back depth chart, making his inactive status for the opener unsurprising. The undrafted rookie beat the odds to make the final 53-man roster, but Watson will likely need an injury to one of his aforementioned trio of teammates to garner active status in the foreseeable future.
-
Watson is expected to be recover from a slight leg muscle tweak that landed him on the Broncos' active/non-football injury list, Ryan McFadden of The Denver Post reports. Watson's placement on the NFI list is seemingly a procedural matter heading into training camp. A quick recovery would be in the undrafted rookie's best interest, as he is attempting to earn a depth role in Denver's backfield. Thus, the more time on the field the better.
