DENVER (AP) — The Denver Broncos activated prized free agent acquisition Dre Greenlaw from injured reserve Saturday ahead of their game against the New York Giants on Sunday.

Greenlaw has been sidelined since the summer with a quadriceps injury he first incurred during the team’s offseason program.

Defensive coordinator Vance Joseph said Thursday that Greenlaw would be on a pitch count whenever he returned to the lineup.

The Broncos (4-2) are seeking their fourth consecutive victory when they host the resurgent Giants (2-4) Sunday at Empower Field, where they’re honoring the late Demaryius Thomas, the 38th member of the team’s ring of fame.

The Broncos made room on the roster by releasing quarterback Sam Ehlinger, whom they signed back to their practice squad Saturday.
