Mike Purcell: Hangs up cleats
Purcell announced his retirement from the NFL on Tuesday, Chris Tomasson of The Denver Gazette reports.
Purcell was a free agent for the entire 2024 season despite receiving interest from teams in need of a defensive tackle. He went undrafted after spending four college seasons in Wyoming and signed with the 49ers in April of 2013. He played in eight NFL seasons, with his last five taking place in Denver, where he started in 37 of 65 games and registered 166 tackles (87 solo), including 2.5 sacks, four pass defenses and three fumble recoveries.

Broncos' Mike Purcell: Out Sunday
Purcell (ribs) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Bears.
The 32-year-old missed the entire week of practice after suffering a rib injury during Denver's Week 3 loss to Miami, so it's no surprise he's been ruled out this Sunday. Purcell is listed as the team's backup nose tackle and he's only recorded two total tackles through three games, making this a relatively small loss for the Broncos' defense.

Mike Purcell: Let go by Denver
The Broncos released Purcell on Tuesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Purcell underwent knee surgery during the offseason and began training camp on the active/non-football injury list. However, he passed his physical last week and was activated by Denver. The 32-year-old couldn't secure a spot on the 53-man roster but will seek out opportunities elsewhere now that he's healthy.

Broncos' Mike Purcell: Passes physical, off NFI list
Purcell (knee) passed his physical and was activated from the active/non-football injury list Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Purcell began training camp on the active/non-football injury list while rehabbing from offseason knee surgery, but it appears he's getting close to full strength with the regular season just over two weeks away. Despite batting the lingering knee issue, Purcell appeared in all 17 games last year and figures to garner a similar rotational role in 2023.
