Broncos sign WR Cam Ross to practice squad, release Jahfari Harvey
ENGLEWOOD, Colo. 6 The Broncos signed wide receiver Cam Ross to the practice squad Tuesday and released outside linebacker Jahfari Harvey from the practice squad in a corresponding move, the team announced.

In his lone season at Virginia, Ross had 53 catches for 543 yards and two touchdowns. He also averaged 33.3 yards per kickoff return with a touchdown for the Cavaliers.
Harvey was signed to the Broncos’ practice squad on Sept. 29 and was released Tuesday as part of the corresponding roster move. The transaction reflects another short-term roster adjustment as Denver manages practice-squad depth and special-teams capability. The team announced the move Tuesday.
