The Broncos also released safety Darian Stewart.

Kreiter took 146 snaps without an unplayable delivery in 2018 and became the first long snapper in Broncos history to make a Pro Bowl. The fourth-year player entered the league in 2014 as a free agent signing by the Dallas Cowboys.

He signed with the Broncos in April 2016. The 6-foot-1, 250-pound long snapper has appeared in 42 games for the Broncos during his three-year tenure with the franchise.

Stewart is entering his 10th season. The 2016 Pro Bowl selection won a Super Bowl with the Broncos in 2015. He totaled 250 tackles, 24 passes defensed, nine interceptions, four fumble recoveries, two forced fumbles and a sack during his four seasons with the Broncos.
