  • Signs ERFA tender

    Spencer has signed his exclusive rights free agent tender with the Broncos, Zac Stevens of DNVR Sports reports.

    Analysis: Spencer will return to the Broncos in 2021 after establishing himself as one of the league's most dangerous punt returners last season. He's expected to maintain a prominent role on special teams but a minimal one on offense, as Spencer recorded just three catches and three rushing attempts for 45 scrimmage yards in 2020.

  • Receiving tender from Broncos

    The Broncos tendered exclusive rights free agent Spencer on Monday, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.

    Analysis: A midseason shoulder injury and a subsequent stint on the reserve/COVID-19 list kept Spencer to 11 appearances in 2020, but he shined as a punt returner when active. Spencer was one of eight players in the NFL to score on a punt return last season, while his two returns of 40-plus yards ranked second in the league to All-Pro Gunner Olszewski. Given Spencer's status as an exclusive rights free agent, this latest transaction locks him in as a Bronco heading into the 2021 campaign.

  • Among league's best punt returners

    Spencer returned 16 punts for 253 yards and 15 kicks for 281 yards over the course of 11 games. On offense, Spencer caught three of six targets for 26 yards and rushed three times for 19 total yards.

    Analysis: Spencer finished the season ranked seventh in the league in punt return yards. That success didn't translate to kick returns, where he finished 30th. Given his minimal role on offense, it'll be interesting to see what the Broncos do with Spencer this offseason as he enters exclusive-rights free agency. Rookie Tyrie Cleveland, who showed flashes as a receiver in the season finale, also looked good as a kick returner midseason when Spencer missed time midseason, while fellow rookie KJ Hamler…read more

  • Targeted twice in loss

    Spencer caught one of his two targets for a 10-yard gain and added a nine-yard run during Sunday's 19-16 loss at the Chargers. He added 111 total yards on five kickoff returns and 46 total yards on three punt returns.

    Analysis: Spencer doubled his season total of targets Sunday as KJ Hamler (concussion) exited early. The diminutive wideout was even the closest target to Drew Lock's hail-mary heave at the end of the ballgame. If Hamler can't play in the season finale against Las Vegas, expect Spencer to get a touch or two on offense, particularly on gadget-type plays.

  • Returns punt for TD

    Spencer had an 83-yard punt return for a touchdown during Sunday's 32-27 win over the Panthers. He also had five yards on his lone kick return.

    Analysis: Spencer hasn't drawn a target since Week 6, but he continues to get consistent work in the return game. He earned AFC Special Teams Player of the Week for his performance against the Panthers and is now averaging 17.5 yards per punt return.

  • Shifts off COVID list

    Spencer was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list Thursday, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.

    Analysis: Given this development, the McNeese State standout becomes eligible to suit up Week 14 against the Panthers. Spencer has been residing on the reserve/COVID-19 list since Nov. 27, meaning a game appearance would mark his first since Week 11. The 28-year-old has averaged 10.2 yards per punt return over nine attempts as well as 18.6 yards per return over eight kickoff-return opportunities.

  • Shifts to COVID-19 list

    The Broncos placed Spencer on the reserve/COVID-19 list Friday, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.

    Analysis: Spencer has either tested positive for the virus or come into close contact with an infected person. Regardless, he won't play against the Saints on Sunday. In turn, Tyrie Cleveland and KJ Hamler are expected to return kicks and punts, respecitively.

  • Registers 32 return yards

    Spencer didn't receive a target on offense but recorded 22 yards on his lone kick return and 10 yards on three punt returns in Sunday's 20-13 win over the Dolphins.

    Analysis: Spencer hasn't played more than six snaps on offense in a game this year. The 28-year-old is the team's primary returner, and he's averaged 18.6 yards per kick return and 10.2 yards per punt return.

  • Ready to play Sunday

    Spencer (shoulder) is active for Sunday's game against the Raiders.

    Analysis: The 28-year-old was considered questionable due to the shoulder injury, but it won't prevent him from suiting up Sunday. Spencer should handle return duties and work as a depth receiver for the Broncos.

  • Questionable after full practice

    Spencer (shoulder) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Raiders, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.

    Analysis: Spencer practiced fully Friday, which bodes well for his availability. The return man is unlikely to have much of a role on offense unless fellow wide receiver Jerry Jeudy -- who is questionable with a shoulder injury of his own -- sits.

  • Managing shoulder issue

    Spencer (shoulder) was a limited participant during Wednesday's practice, Troy Renck of Denver 7 News reports.

    Analysis: Spencer suffered the injury during last week's loss to the Falcons, and he appears to be continuing to managing the issue. The Denver receiving corps is all the sudden looking a bit thin, with Spencer, Jerry Jeudy (shoulder) and Tim Patrick (hamstring) all managing injuries during Wednesday's practice.

  • Downgrades to out

    Spencer (shoulder) has been ruled out for Sunday's game versus the Falcons, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.

    Analysis: Spencer was already considered doubtful heading into the weekend, so this news was expected. He'll miss a third straight game, but his contributions as a depth wide receiver won't be affected much because Tim Patrick (hamstring) is expected to return. Tyrie Cleveland and KJ Hamler are expected to fill in on kick and punt returns, respectively.

  • Not expected to play Sunday

    Spencer (shoulder) is considered doubtful for Sunday's game versus the Falcons, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.

    Analysis: Spencer's on track to miss a third straight game since suffering a shoulder injury in a Week 6 win over the Patriots. His absence will mainly affect the Broncos' return game, so Tyrie Cleveland and KJ Hamler should continue to work as the kick and punt returners, respectively.

  • Won't play Week 8

    Spencer (shoulder) is ruled out for Sunday's game against the Chargers, Jeff Legwold of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Spencer's shoulder injury will cause him to miss a second straight game, setting the stage for KJ Hamler to bring back punts while Tyrie Cleveland handles kick return duties. The depth wideout and return man's next chance to take the field will come Nov. 8 against Atlanta.

  • Misses second straight practice

    Spencer (shoulder) did not practice Thursday, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports.

    Analysis: Spencer wasn't able to suit up against the Chiefs last weekend, and he's now missed back-to-back practices to begin Week 8. The return man was able to work on the side Thursday, which is somewhat encouraging, but he nonetheless appears to be trending in the wrong direction for Sunday's game against the Chargers.

  • Considered day-to-day

    Spencer (shoulder) is day-to-day and will be monitored through the practice week, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports.

    Analysis: Spencer missed this past Sunday's loss to the Chiefs, but coach Vic Fangio appears optimistic about the wide receiver's status moving forward. The 28-year-old didn't practice at all last week and will need to get on the field in some capacity this week to have a chance to suit up Sunday against the Chargers. If he can't shake the injury in time, KJ Hamler likely will handle punt return duties while Tyrie Cleveland brings back kicks.

  • Won't face Chiefs

    Spencer (shoulder) is ruled out for Sunday's game against the Chiefs, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.

    Analysis: Spencer's shoulder injury will force him to miss his first game of the season. As long as Spencer is sidelined, Tyrie Cleveland will handle kick return duties, while Bryce Callahan stands to field punts.

  • DNP on Thursday

    Spencer (shoulder) did not practice Thursday, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site report.

    Analysis: Spencer has now missed back-to-back practices due to the shoulder injury that forced him out of Week 6's win over the Patriots. If he's unable to face the Chiefs on Sunday, the Broncos will likely turn to Tyrie Cleveland for kick return duties, while Bryce Callahan would field punts.

  • Missing practice time

    Spencer didn't suit up in Wednesday's practice due to a shoulder injury.

    Analysis: Spencer was forced out of last week's win over the Patriots due to the shoulder injury, and it now appears it's causing him to miss practice time. The severity of the injury is unclear, but if Spencer is forced to miss next week's game against Kansas City, Tyrie Cleveland would continue to handle kick return duties, with Bryce Callahan elevating to fielding punts.

  • Exits with shoulder injury

    Spencer was forced out of Sunday's game against the Patriots with a shoulder injury and is questionable to return.

    Analysis: It's unclear how Spencer suffered the injury, but he was forced to leave the game right before halftime. As long as the McNeese State product is sidelined, look for Tyrie Cleveland to handle kick return duties, with Bryce Callahan elevating to fielding punts.

  • Likely safe at returner

    Despite the addition of speedster KJ Hamler in the second round, it would "take a lot" for him to unseat Spencer as the Broncos' primary returner, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports.

    Analysis: Hamler returned 44 kicks for 1,036 yards and 37 punts for 222 yards during his two seasons at Penn State. That production, paired with elite speed, led some to make the immediate assumption that Hamler would come in as a returner. Head coach Vic Fangio dispelled that notion early with reporters, voicing his preference not to use offensive or defensive starters as returners. Not to mention, Spencer finished 10th in the league in total return yards in 2019. The addition of Hamler and Jerry Jeudy…read more

  • Headed back to Denver

    Spencer will remain with the Broncos after the team placed a contract tender on the exclusive rights free agent Tuesday, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.

    Analysis: The 27-year-old was a solid player in the return game for the Broncos in 2019, returning 15 kickoffs for 436 yards and 26 punts for 208 yards. His production as a receiver was limited, however, as he hauled in only six passes for 31 yards. Spencer's speed and elusiveness still give him the aura of a player with big-play potential, but it's likely he will continue primarily to handle return duties for Denver in 2020 rather than become more involved on offense.

  • Makes mark in 2019

    Spencer returned 15 kickoffs for 436 yards and 26 punts for 208 yards during the 2019 season. On offense, he added 31 yards on six catches and six yards on three carries. He fumbled thrice during the season.

    Analysis: The Broncos added Spencer off of waivers from Pittsburgh just before the start of the season and the CFL veteran quickly provided an answer to Denver's years-long questions at both returner spots. His 29.1 yards per kick return ranked third in the league among players with at least 15 returns and his 8.0 yards per punt return ranked ninth overall. The Broncos tried him out as a gadget player on offense, but his big-play speed did not translate to offense on limited touches and his…read more

  • Fumbles in win

    Spencer caught one of three targets for no gain during Sunday's 24-19 win over Cleveland. He added a punt return of 20 yards, kick return of 17 yards and fumbled during the contest.

    Analysis: Spencer put his own defense in a bind midway through the second quarter when he took a screen deep in Denver's own territory and had the ball punched out as he was trying to wiggle up field. The optimist will note that Denver is trying to be creative in getting Spencer the ball, while the pessimist will point to Spencer's fumble and minimal offensive production this season and call him a returner rather than a true receiver. The truth is probably somewhere in the middle. Spencer's speed and…read more
