The Broncos designated Sanders (foot) for return from the injured reserve Saturday, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.

Sanders, a 2023 third-round pick from Arkansas, was sidelined for the entire regular season due to a foot injury sustained in training camp. However, Sanders looks like he may now have a chance to return at some point during the Broncos' playoff run. If activated prior to Denver's divisional-round matchup next weekend, Sanders will likely operate as one of the team's top reserve inside linebackers.
