Antonio Johnson signs to Broncos practice squad, Danny Mason released

The Broncos on Tuesday signed offensive lineman Antonio Johnson to their practice squad and released outside linebacker Danny Mason.

Johnson, a 6-foot-5, 310-pound undrafted rookie out of North Texas, spent the offseason and training camp with the Saints but was released in the first round of roster cuts. He went on to spend two days on the Steelers' practice squad in early September before being cut.

The Broncos signed Mason, a rookie out of Texas A&M-Commerce, to a future contract in January and he played in two preseason games — at Seattle and at Houston. He was released in September when they had to trim the roster to 75 players.
