Mark Barron - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Cut loose by Broncos The Broncos waived Barron on Tuesday, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.

Impact Barron battled a hamstring injury and a strained pectoral muscle this season, and he never played in a game for the Broncos as a result. The 31-year-old linebacker will now focus on getting healthy for the 2021 season. He last played in 2019 when he suited up in 15 games for the Steelers and posted 82 tackles, three sacks, three pass breakups and an interception.

Rehab delayed Barron (hamstring) suffered a recent pectoral injury that will delay his return from IR, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.

Impact Barron was placed on IR in late September to rehab a lingering hamstring issue, but while attempting to work back he's now sustained a completely separate pectoral injury. Though he'll technically be eligible to return as early as Week 6 versus Miami, it looks like Barron could be in line for an extended stint on IR.

Heads to IR The Broncos placed Barron (hamstring) on injured reserve Wednesday, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.

Impact Barron signed with the Broncos last August and looked as if he would have a consistent role on defense. However, this hamstring injury held him out of the first two games and now he'll miss at least the next three contests as well. Barron is eligible to return in Week 6 versus the Dolphins.

Ruled out for Week 1 Barron (hamstring) has been ruled out for Denver's Week 1 contest against the Titans, Ryan O'Halloran of The Denver Post reports.

Impact Barron was considered unlikely to play even early in the week after he suffered a hamstring injury during practice Sept. 4. He did not practice Thursday or Friday, so it's unclear when he may be able to retake the field. Josey Jewell should be locked into plenty of snaps at inside linebacker in Barron's absence.

Not practicing Friday Barron (hamstring) didn't participate in Friday's practice, Jeff Legwold of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Barron missed a second straight day of practice, and he's in danger of missing Monday's season opener versus the Titans. Alexander Johnson and Josey Jewell were named the starting inside linebackers anyway, but Barron is reliable depth that could help shut down RB Derrick Henry.

Nursing hamstring injury Coach Vic Fangio said Tuesday that Barron (hamstring) is "highly questionable" for Monday's season opener against Tennessee, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports.

Impact Barron is managing a hamstring issue sustained during Friday's stadium practice, per Mike Klis of 9News Denver. The 30-year-old veteran saw some reps with the first-team defense last week, so, if healthy, he could be a candidate to help fill in for the recently released Todd Davis.

Has path to regular snaps Barron took some reps with the first-team defense at Thursday's practice and is a candidate to fill in for the recently released Todd Davis, Jeff Legwold of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Only a few days into his tenure with the Broncos, Barron worked with the first-teamers in nickel packages, perhaps forecasting Friday's move by the team. With Davis out of the picture, Barron and Josey Jewell seem to be the top options to replace him. Jewell has a year of experience in the defense, which may give him a leg up in the competition, but Barron is no slouch as a tackler. In his eight-year career, Barron has two 100-tackle campaigns and recorded 82 stops in 15 games with the Steelers last season.
