DENVER -- The Denver Broncos signed quarterback Darrell Hackney to their active roster Saturday from the practice squad with starter Jay Cutler recovering from a badly bruised left leg.
Hackney joined the Broncos as a future contract signee on Jan. 2. He completed 10 of 22 passes for 113 yards with one interception during the preseason.
He joined Cleveland as a college free agent in 2006 but spent his rookie season out of the NFL after the Browns waived him.
