PHILLIP DORSETT II NEWS

Out in Atlanta Dorsett was released by the Falcons on Monday.

Impact Dorsett inked a reserve/future deal with the Falcons in early January, but it now appears the team has decided to part ways with the veteran wideout. The 2015 first-round pick last appeared in an NFL regular-season game with the Broncos in 2023, failing to catch any of his three targets across 34 offensive snaps. Now a free agent, Dorsett will likely look to find work with a team in need of wide receiver depth.

Goes back to practice squad The Broncos reverted Dorsett to their practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Impact Dorsett was elevated from the practice squad for the second time this season ahead of Sunday's Week 17 win over the Chargers, and he played 28 offensive snaps in the contest. The wideout drew two targets but didn't catch either one, and he's been unable to reel in any of his three targets on the campaign. Courtland Sutton (concussion) and Marvin Mims (hamstring) were both inactive Sunday, and Dorsett could be elevated again for Week 18 if either or both of the pair sits out again.

Elevated for Week 17 The Broncos elevated Dorsett from their practice squad to their active roster Saturday.

Impact This will be Dorsett's second elevation to the active roster this season. The first time he was active on game day was Week 1 against the Raiders, when he played six offensive snaps and didn't catch his lone target. Courtland Sutton (concussion) won't play Sunday, and how much work Dorsett is given could depend on whether Jerry Jeudy (illness) and/or Marvin Mims (hamstring) miss the game as well.
