Three Denver defensive backs had to leave Sunday's game against Chicago, including cornerback Andre Goodman and safety Brian Dawkins. Goodman suffered a concussion and may not have to sit for long, but the Broncos made a couple of transactions on Tuesday to prepare for his potential absence:
With cornerback Andre' Goodman's availability in question for Sunday's game against the New England Patriots, the Broncos signed cornerback Tony Carter from their practice squad today.
To make room for Carter on the 53-man roster, the team waived safety Kyle McCarthy.
Carter appeared in two games for the Broncos in 2009 and two games for the New England Patriots in 2010. He has four tackles in his career.
Additionally, the team waived rookie linebacker Derek Domino.
