Russell

Russell could play as a reserve because of Peter Warrick’s shin injury.

The third-round pick from 2002 is fast, but has struggled to stay on the field in Washington.

Russell was one of the fastest players selected in the 2002 draft, but hasn’t stayed healthy in Washington. We expect him to get cut.

Russell will be the team’s fifth receiver.

The Broncos mistakenly gave Colbert a $2.5 million signing bonus in March. He’s doubtful to help their passing game at all. Parker won’t make the team.

Russell is a 29-year-old journeyman, but could be active over Darrell Jackson on game days because he offers more special teams value.

Russell and Vaughn are former NFL Europe players. Poole is at the end of the line.

The special teamer’s status for Week 5 is uncertain, but he’s avoided serious injury. Russell was carted off after being hurt covering a kick Sunday.

Russell was motionless on the field for several minutes before being placed on a backboard and taken off of the field. He was able to move his hand to acknowledge the crowd as he was being taken off. The Broncos resigned Russell this month after cutting him earlier in the year. He was being used primarily on special teams.
