The Denver Broncos have added more depth at inside linebacker and, perhaps just as import, they’ve upgraded their special teams. - Alex Singleton (6-2, 240 pounds) has agreed to terms on a one-year deal, the team announced Friday evening. The contract includes $1.1 million guaranteed with an additional $750,000 available through playing time incentives, according to NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo. - Singleton is a 28-year-old veteran who spent time with four NFL teams and had a three-year run in the CFL (2016-2018) before joining the Broncos. - Singleton spent the last three years with the Philadelphia Eagles, leading the Eagles in tackles in 2020 (120) and 2021 (137). He was also a key special teams player in Philly, playing in 70%, 67% and 51% of the team’s special teams snaps over the last three seasons. - Singleton has recorded 262 tackles, nine quarterback hits, five pass breakups, three fumble recoveries, two interceptions, two defensive touchdowns and one forced fumble in 42 career games (19 starts). - Singleton will likely get a chance to compete for a starting job this summer, with Josey Jewell and Baron Browning the presumed favorites for the top two inside linebacker spots. - Follow the Broncos Wire Podcast: - Apple Podcasts | Spotify | Google Podcasts - - - List - - Russell Wilson trade: Seahawks fan provides Seattle perspective for Broncos fans - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Email - - - - - Sign up - - - - - - - - Like this article? - Sign up for the Broncos Wire email newsletter to get our top stories in your inbox every morning - - - - An error has occured - - - Please re-enter your email address. - - - - - - Thanks for signing up! - - - You'll now receive the top Broncos Wire stories each day directly in your inbox.
