Michael Bandy: Sticking around on Denver's PS
The Broncos signed Bandy to the practice squad Tuesday, Aric DiLalla of the team's official site reports.
Bandy was waived by Denver on Sunday after he failed to make the team's 53-man roster following the conclusion of training camp. However, the San Diego product impressed the coaching staff enough to stick around on the Broncos' practice squad. Marvin Mims is dealing with a foot injury, and if that issue lingers, then Bandy would be a candidate to be elevated to the Broncos' active roster for the team's regular-season opener against the Chiefs on Monday, Sept. 14.

Broncos' Michael Bandy: Re-signs with Broncos
Denver re-signed Bandy on Thursday.
Bandy spent the majority of the 2025 season on the Broncos' practice squad but made four regular-season appearances with the team, in which he secured all four of his targets for 50 yards and one touchdown. He was also elevated for the team's loss to the Patriots in the AFC Championship Game, but he was ultimately deemed a healthy scratch. Bandy will spend the offseason competing to reprise a similar depth role with Denver.

Michael Bandy: Back to practice squad
Bandy reverted to the Broncos' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Bandy was elevated to the Broncos' active roster Saturday but ended up being a healthy inactive for Sunday's AFC Championship Game against the Patriots, as Elijah Moore was selected to serve as Denver's WR5 in the absence of Troy Franklin (hamstring). Bandy appeared in four regular-season games for the Broncos in 2025, catching all four of his passes for 50 yards and a touchdown while also contributing on special teams.

Bandy (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's AFC Championship Game against the Patriots, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.
The Broncos elevated both Bandy and Elijah Moore from the practice squad Saturday, but Denver will go with the latter as the No. 5 receiver in the absence of Troy Franklin (hamstring).

Broncos' Michael Bandy: Elevated for Sunday
The Broncos elevated Bandy from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday.
Bandy played in four regular-season games for 16 offensive snaps, totalling four receptions for 50 yards and a touchdown on four targets. Bandy will join fellow wide receiver Elijah Moore as a depth option at receiver, elevated as a precaution for a scenario where Troy Franklin (hamstring) potentially cannot suit up for Sunday's AFC Championship Game against the Patriots.

Broncos' Michael Bandy: Reverts to practice squad
Bandy reverted to the Broncos' practice squad Friday.
Bandy was elevated to the active roster ahead of Thursday night's 20-13 win over the Chiefs. The wide receiver caught both of his targets for 14 total yards on his seven offensive snaps.

Broncos' Michael Bandy: Elevated for Christmas Day
The Broncos have elevated Bandy from the practice squad for Thursday's game against the Chiefs.
Bandy was also elevated for Denver's win over the Packers in Week 15, in which he secured his only target for a 20-yard touchdown while playing just two total offensive snaps. He'll figure to handle a depth role again versus Kansas City on Christmas Day.

Michael Bandy: Returns to practice squad
Bandy reverted to the Broncos' practice squad Monday.
Bandy was elevated to the active roster ahead of Sunday's 34-26 win over the Packers, reeling in his only target for a 20-yard touchdown in the second quarter while playing two offensive snaps in the contest. The wide receiver was helping fill in for Pat Bryant (hamstring) in Week 15, but he was still a relative afterthought as Courtland Sutton (60), Lil'Jordan Humphrey (46), Troy Franklin (34) and Marvin Mims (21) logged more snaps on offense. Bandy will now need to be officially signed to the active roster to appear in another contest with Denver this season.

Broncos' Michael Bandy: Elevated from practice squad
The Broncos elevated Bandy from their practice squad to the active roster Saturday ahead of Sunday's game versus the Packers, Aric DiLalla of the team's official site reports.
Bandy could make his third appearance of the season and would provide additional depth at receiver due to Pat Bryant (hamstring) being sidelined. Bandy has caught just one pass for 16 yards, and this marks the final time the team can elevate him.

Michael Bandy: Returns to practice squad
The Broncos signed Bandy to the practice squad Thursday, Mike Klis of 9news.com reports.
After being waived by the Broncos on Tuesday to make room for veteran OT Geron Christian, Bandy cleared waivers and has reunited with the team. Bandy's return may be followed by an elevation to the 53-man roster for Sunday's game against the Chiefs if wide receivers Marvin Mims (concussion) or Trent Sherfield (toe) are unable to suit up.

Michael Bandy: Cut by Denver
The Broncos waived Bandy on Tuesday, Parker Gabriel of The Denver Post reports.
Bandy was cut in order to make room for the signing of veteran OT Geron Christian, who was signed off Dallas' practice squad. If Bandy clears waivers, it would make sense for him to rejoin Denver via the practice squad.

Broncos' Michael Bandy: Signed from practice squad
The Broncos signed Bandy to the active roster from the practice squad Thursday, Chris Tomasson of The Denver Gazette reports.
Bandy was elevated for his 2025 debut during the Broncos' win over Houston in Week 9, a contest in which he secured his only target for 16 yards while also playing a minor role on special teams. Now that he's been signed to the 53-man roster, Bandy will be eligible to suit up for the remainder of Denver's contests this season, beginning Thursday night versus the Raiders.

Broncos' Michael Bandy: Back to practice squad
Bandy reverted to the Broncos' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Bandy made his 2025 regular-season debut during the Broncos' 18-15 win over the Texans on Sunday. He played a total of 14 snaps (six on offense, eight on special teams) while hauling in a 16-yard pass on his only target of the game. He also returned four punts for 30 yards, though he fumbled one of those punts late in the second quarter that was scooped up by the Texans and led to a Ka'imi Fairbairn 40-yard field goal four plays later. Bandy could be elevated to the Broncos' active roster for Thursday's game against the Raiders if Marvin Mims (concussion) is not cleared to play.

Broncos' Michael Bandy: Elevated for Week 9
Bandy was elevated from the Broncos' practice squad to the active roster Saturday.
With Marvin Mims (concussion) being ruled out for Sunday's game against the Texans, Bandy has been elevated to the active roster for what could be his first regular-season game as a Bronco. The wide receiver finished the preseason with six catches for 59 yards while logging 13 yards on two punt returns. Bandy will likely operate in a reserve capacity as the second punt returner behind Riley Moss. He will also be the fifth wide receiver behind Courtland Sutton, Troy Franklin, Pat Bryant, and Trent Sherfield.

Michael Bandy: Signed to Denver's practice squad
The Broncos signed Bandy to the practice squad Thursday, Aric DiLalla of the team's official site reports.
Bandy spent the entire 2024 season on the Broncos' practice squad, and he will reprise that role in 2025 after failing to make Denver's 53-man roster at the end of training camp. He finished the preseason with six catches (on as many targets) for 59 yards while logging 13 yards on two punt returns across three games.

Michael Bandy: Waived by Broncos
Bandy was waived by Denver on Tuesday, Aric DiLalla of the team's official website reports.
Bandy was unable to earn a depth role in a crowded wide receiving corps ahead of the 2025 season. The 27-year-old wideout spent the entire 2024 season on the Broncos' practice squad, and he'll now look to secure a role on another team's roster. If Bandy is unable to latch on with another team, it's possible he could eventually sign with Denver's practice squad once again.

Broncos' Michael Bandy: Re-signs with Denver
The Broncos signed Bandy to a reserve/future contract Wednesday, Parker Gabriel of The Denver Post reports.
The wide receiver from San Diego spent his 2024 campaign with the Broncos' practice squad and will now remain in Denver after inking a reserve/future contract with the team Wednesday. Bandy's most recent NFL action came with the Broncos in 2023, when he failed to record a stat across 10 total snaps (two offensive and eight on special teams) in one appearance. He's expected to compete for a depth role in Denver's wide receiver corps this summer.

Michael Bandy: Returns to Denver
Bandy signed with the Broncos' practice squad Wednesday, Aric DiLalla of the team's official site reports.
Bandy linked up with Denver last season after playing a depth role with the Chargers in 2022. However, the San Diego product only suited up once in 2023, spending most of his time on the Broncos' practice squad. He appears headed for a similar role in 2024.
