Signed to Denver's active roster
The Broncos signed Cunningham off the practice squad to the active roster Wednesday, Eric DiLalla of the team's official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Cunningham played in 13 regular-season games for the Eagles in 2023 and posted 85 tackles (54 solo), four pass defenses and one fumble recovery, but he wasn't with a team during training camp. He eventually caught on with the Broncos on the practice squad in late September to provide depth at inside linebacker after Alex Singleton tore his ACL in Week 3 against the Buccaneers. Cunningham has been elevated by the Broncos for the last three games, and over his last two outings he logged three tackles (one solo) while playing 21 snaps (13 on defense, eight on special teams). Now that he's on the 53-man roster, Cunningham will continue to serve as a rotational inside linebacker behind starters Justin Strnad and Cody Barton.

Cunningham still needs to hold off 2021 third-round pick Monty Rice, something that is less than
guaranteed due to Cunningham’s coverage limitations. He’s bad in coverage but good in
pursuit, which makes him a boom-or-bust IDP consideration, because his upside scenario might
look like the two-year stretch in Houston where he posted 306 tackles from 2019 to 2020.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Likely to stay in Tennessee
Cunningham is owed over $10 million next season in the second year of the contract he signed with the Texans in 2020, but the Titans aren't likely to release him, Gentry Estes of the Tennessean reports.
ANALYSIS
The linebacker made a strong impression with Tennessee after being picked up on waivers, posting double-digit tackles in both his final regular-season game and in the Titans' playoff exit against the Bengals. "He came in and played good football for us, and we're excited to work with him moving forward," said general manager Jon Robinson. Cunningham failed to record 100 or more tackles in 2021 for the first time since his rookie season, but a steadier role in a better defense with the Titans should allow him to rebound next year.
