The Denver Broncos have released tight end James Casey to reduce their roster to 53 men.
Defensive end Derek Wolfe returned from a four-game suspension on Monday and the Broncos had a roster exemption to assess his fitness levels.
Casey had trained on Friday but coach Gary Kubiak elected to release him to make room for Wolfe's return.
Thirty-one-year-old Casey failed to make a reception in the opening four games of the season.
