36 Trey Marshall DB

Marshall signed his free-agent tender with the Broncos on Tuesday.

The 25-year-old was an exclusive rights free agent, so he was locked in with Denver once the team decided to tender him a contract for 2021. Marshall appeared in 12 games during 2020 and totaled six tackles while primarily playing special teams.

The Broncos tendered a contract to exclusive rights free agent Marshall (quadriceps) on Monday, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.

Marshall suited up for all 16 of the Broncos' games in 2019, plus the team's first 10 outings of the 2020 campaign. Shin and quad injuries took their toll down the stretch, however, ultimately forcing Marshall to miss four of Denver's final six games. This latest transaction puts him on a trajectory to return to the Broncos' lineup this fall, where he's primarily expected to be deployed as a special-teams contributor. Should veteran safety Kareem Jackson move on this offseason, Marshall's defensive role could become more prominent.

Marshall (quadriceps) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Raiders, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.

The 24-year-old received the questionable tag despite not practicing all week, so it's not a major surprise he's sitting out the season finale. Marshall finishes the season with six total tackles while primarily playing special teams in 12 games.

Marshall (shin) is active for Saturday's game against the Bills.

Marshall was officially listed as questionable with a shin injury that's caused him to miss three straight games, but he'll take the field versus Buffalo. The 24-year-old contributes almost exclusively on special teams for Denver.

Marshall (shin) is questionable heading into Saturday's matchup against the Bills, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.

Marshall has missed each of the Broncos' past three games while coping with his shin injury, but there's hope for him to suit up Week 15 after he proved capable of logging limited sessions Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. The Florida State product has played a nearly exclusive special-teams role in 2020, with 233 of his snaps coming in that department compared to just five on defense.

Marshall (shin) is officially out Saturday, Nick Kosmider of The Athletic reports.

Marshall has missed the past two games due to a shin injury. The 24-year-old has primarily played special teams throughout the 2020 campaign.

Marshall (shin) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Panthers, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.

Marshall is coming off back-to-back absences due to his shin injury, but he has a shot to return in Carolina. The Florida State product plays almost entirely on special teams for Denver, though he also offers reserve depth behind Kareem Jackson and Justin Simmons.

Marshall (shin) has been ruled out for Sunday's game at Kansas City, Troy Renck of Denver 7 News reports.

Marshall will be sidelined for the second straight contest due to the shin injury suffered Week 11. PJ Locke will operate as the primary backup to starting safeties Kareem Jackson and Justin Simmons.

Marshall (shin) has been ruled out for Sunday's game versus the Saints, Troy Renck of Denver 7 News reports.

Marshall will miss a game for the first time since his rookie season in 2018. The Florida State product plays almost exclusively on special teams. However, his absence affects the secondary depth since he's the primary backup to starting safeties Kareem Jackson and Justin Simmons.

Marshall was forced out of Sunday's game against the Dolphins with a lower leg injury, Patrick Smyth of the Broncos' official site reports.

Marshall plays almost exclusively on special teams, but his absence will affect the team's depth at safety behind starters Kareem Jackson and Justin Simmons, both of whom play every defensive snap.

Marshall (illness) is officially active for Sunday's contest against the Falcons.

Marshall failed to practice Friday after he felt under the weather with a non-COVID-19 related illness, so this is certainly good news for the Florida State product. Marshall rarely contributes on defense, so look for him to log his playing time on special teams now that he's officially playing.

Marshall (illness) is questionable for Sunday's game versus the Falcons, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.

Marshall popped up as a nonparticipant Friday due to an illness, and there haven't been any reports that it's related to COVID-19. The 24-year-old could be a game-time decision. He almost never plays on defense, but Marshall leads the Broncos with four special-teams tackles.

Marshall 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.

Marshall helped provide depth in the secondary for the Broncos in 2019. The 25-year-old recorded 25 tackles (19 solo) and forced one fumble across 16 games. He will now look to earn a bigger role in 2020.

Marshall recorded nine tackles during Sunday's 27-17 win over the Lions.

The seldom-used safety seemed to get beat over the top during the Lions' opening drive for a 35-yard gain to Kenny Golladay. He quickly bounced back to lead the team in tackles in a game in which the Broncos' surrendered a season-low 191 yards. He's likely to get the start again in Week 17 against Oakland in place of the suspended Kareem Jackson.

Marshall will start at safety in Kareem Jackson's (suspension) place Sunday against the Lions, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.

Kareem Jackson won't play again this year, so Marshall and Will Parks were the main options to replace him. Marshall -- an undrafted free agent out of Florida State -- gets the edge despite playing just 37 defensive snaps this year compared to Parks' 462. Parks still figures to get plenty of playing time in nickel and dime packages, but Marshall is in line for an every-down role.

Marshall (leg) is active for Sunday's game against the Titans.

Marshall avoided missing his first game of the season. He normally doesn't play often on defense, but the Broncos' secondary is so banged up that Marshall could see an uptick in his usage.

Marshall (leg) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Titans, Zac Stevens of DNVR reports.

Marshall evidently picked up the leg injury in last week's win over the Chargers, casting some doubt on his status for Sunday's contest. He's been limited to a special teams role this season, racking up three tackles through five games.

Marshall (neck) will suit up for Monday's game versus the Raiders, Nicki Jhabvala of The Athletic reports.

Marshall played strictly on special teams in two games last year. He's expected to play in a similar role this year behind Kareem Jackson, Justin Simmons and Will Parks.

The Broncos promoted Marshall to the active roster Monday, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.

According to the report, the Cardinals attempted to lure Marshall away from Denver's practice squad, forcing the Broncos' hand. He'll take the roster spot vacated by Shamarko Thomas and will likely be used on special teams.
