Elevated for Week 9 The Bills elevated Virgil from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday.

Impact Virgil was elevated for Week 8 against the Seahawks, during which he played 21 snaps (11 on offense, 10 on special teams). Virgil could see some additional playing time on offense Sunday against the Dolphins if one or both of Amari Cooper (wrist) and Curtis Samuel (pectoral) are unable to play.

Back with practice squad Virgil reverted to the Bills' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

Impact Virgil was elevated to the active roster ahead of Week 8 versus the Seahawks, making his team debut in the team's 31-10 win. The wide receiver failed to produce any stats while playing 11 of the team's 76 offensive snaps and 10 snaps on special teams. Virgil can be elevated two more times before he'd have to be signed to the 53-man roster.

Catches on with Bills' taxi squad Buffalo signed Virgil to its practice squad Wednesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

Impact Virgil missed the entire 2023 season due to a torn meniscus. He entered training camp fully healthy, but he was unable to make the Broncos' 53-man roster after posting just one catch (on four targets) for 13 yards across Denver's three preseason games. Virgil did get some reps as a kick returner during the preseason -- he turned three kick returns in 88 yards against the Colts on Aug. 11 -- and he could get called up to the Bills' active roster at some point during the season to fill that role if needed.

Cut by Denver The Broncos waived Virgil on Tuesday, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Undrafted out of Appalachian State in 2022, Virgil appeared in nine games as a rookie, finishing with two catches for 75 yards and one touchdown on five targets. He missed all of 2023 with a torn meniscus and now will look for an opportunity elsewhere should he clear waivers. Virgil caught one pass for 13 yards this preseason.

Not targeted in loss Virgil failed to record a single target in Sunday's 22-16 overtime loss to the Raiders.

Impact Virgil played just seven of the Broncos' 64 offensive snaps in the contest, ranking fourth among Denver's receiving corps behind Courtland Sutton (59), Kendall Hinton (56) and practice-squad member Brandon Johnson (22). The rookie wideout was a complete non-factor on offense Sunday after scoring the Broncos' only touchdown in Week 10. Virgil should remain far off the fantasy radar when the Broncos visit the Panthers in Week 12.

Finds end zone in loss Virgil secured his only target for 66 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 17-10 loss to the Titans.

Impact Virgil's first career touchdown was the result of a busted coverage in the Titans' secondary, as Russell Wilson connected with the wide open rookie for the Broncos' only touchdown of the contest. In his first game, the 24-year-old played 30 percent of Denver's offensive snaps, a number that was likely elevated based on fellow wideout Jerry Jeudy exiting the game with an ankle injury in the first quarter. Though the long score helped Virgil finish with a respectable fantasy performance on just one target, expecting him to replicate that output with limited opportunities in a struggling offense is a risky proposition. Even if Jeudy misses time, Virgil would likely be the fourth option at receiver at best behind Courtland Sutton, Kendall Hinton and Tyrie Cleveland. It's also possible that KJ Hamler could make a return from a hamstring injury that kept him sidelined in Week 10, further complicating matters for the rookie. Virgil should remain off the fantasy radar when the Broncos host the Raiders in Week 11.
