The Broncos will activate Patrick (hand) from injured reserve Friday, Nicki Jhabvala of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Patrick's spot on the 53-man roster comes after cornerback Bryce Callahan (foot) was moved to IR in a corresponding move. The second-year wideout is trending toward suiting up against the Vikings on Sunday, in which case he'll compete for the No. 2 or No. 3 receiver gig behind top option Courtland Sutton.
