DENVER (AP) -The Denver Broncos have placed defensive lineman J'Vonne Parker on injured reserve with a knee injury.
Team spokesman Dave Gaylinn said Saturday that Parker was hurt Thursday while the Broncos were practicing at Invesco Field.
Parker was undrafted out of Rutgers in 2005, but the fifth-year pro has made stops in Carolina, Atlanta, Baltimore, Dallas and Cleveland. He has six tackles and a fumble recovery in appearances in 11 games.
Parker's injury opens up a roster spot for the Broncos' top draft pick, running back Knowshon Moreno, who agreed to a five-year, $23 million contract Friday. He'll join the team Sunday when it returns from a one-day respite.
