Sherfield signed with the Cardinals' practice squad Wednesday.
The veteran wideout from Vanderbilt was cut by the Broncos on Saturday, but he's already found a new home in Arizona. Sherfield appeared in all of Denver's first 10 games this season, catching three of four targets for 21 yards across 311 total snaps (164 on offense, 147 on special teams). He could be added to the Cardinals' active roster at some point this season, especially with Marvin Harrison (appendix) currently sidelined.

Trent Sherfield: Let go by Denver
Rotowire
The Broncos waived Sherfield on Saturday, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.
The move comes after the Broncos signed Lil'Jordan Humphrey from the Giants' practice squad to the active roster Wednesday. Sherfield served in a depth role at wide receiver and posted three catches (on four targets) for 21 yards across 10 regular-season games. He could garner interest on the waiver wire from teams looking to add a wide receiver who can also contribute on special teams.

Broncos' Trent Sherfield: Logs full practice Thursday
Rotowire
Sherfield (toe) was a full participant in Thursday's practice.
Sherfield did not participate in Wednesday's practice due to a toe issue; however, the injury doesn't appear to be severe, as he was able to practice Thursday without limitations. Given his full practice, he should be available for Sunday's AFC West clash against the Chiefs. Sherfield caught three passes (on four targets) for 21 yards through the first five games of the regular season, but he has not recorded a target over the Broncos' last five games.

Broncos' Trent Sherfield: Nursing toe injury
Rotowire
Sherfield (toe) did not participate at practice Wednesday.
Sherfield was on the field for a season-low 18 total snaps in Week 10 versus the Raiders, which would make sense if he hurt his toe during that contest. He'll probably need to practice in some capacity Thursday or Friday to have a shot to play in Week 11 versus the Chiefs.
Sherfield was not listed on Denver's injury report Monday, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.
Sherfield was banged up in Sunday's win over the Texans, but he was able to return to the game. He contributed primarily on special teams and should be ready to occupy the same role in Thursday's Week 10 matchup against the Raiders.

Broncos' Trent Sherfield: Goes without target in Week 7
Rotowire
Sherfield went without a target while playing nine of the Broncos' 81 snaps on offense in Sunday's 33-32 win over the Giants.
Sherfield has suited up for all seven of the Broncos' games to date, but he remains buried on the depth chart at receiver and will continue to offer most of his contributions on Denver's special-teams coverage units. He's yet to play more than half of the offensive snaps in any game this season and has recorded three catches for 21 yards on four targets.
Sherfield is slated to sign a two-year contract with the Broncos, per Jordan Schultz of Fox Sports.
Sherfield is headed to Denver after having caught just eight passes for 83 yards and one touchdown with the Vikings during the 2024 campaign. He could have the chance to compete for one of the top receiver spots opposite Courtland Sutton and can add value on special teams as well.
Sherfield finished the 2024 regular season with eight catches for 83 yards and one touchdown on nine targets. He also had eight tackles (seven solo) in 17 games.
Sherfield saw minimal involvement on offense as a depth option at wide receiver but he played consistently on special teams. After failing to record multiple catches in any game during the regular season, he did so in Minnesota's 27-9 loss to the Rams in the wild-card round, securing two of three targets for eight yards. Sherfield will be an unrestricted free agent this offseason.
Vikings' Trent Sherfield: Records short catch in win
Rotowire
Sherfield was on the field for 12 of the Vikings' 77 offensive snaps and recorded a six-yard catch on his lone target in Monday's 30-12 win over the Bears.
The reception was Sherfield's first since Week 11, as the 28-year-old has been active for each of the Vikings' ensuing four games but has seen limited snaps on offense while primarily contributing on Minnesota's special-teams units. For the season, Sherfield has produced an 8-83-1 receiving line on nine targets over 14 games.
