The Denver Broncos have brought in linebacker Alex Singleton on a one-year prove-it deal. Singleton has been best initialized on special teams to this point in his career, but he should get a chance to start in Denver after a two-year run as a starter with the Philadelphia Eagles. - The opportunity to continue starting — combined with the additions of players like Russell Wilson and Randy Gregory — made the Broncos a no-brainer for Singleton. - “I think you guys have all seen what the Broncos have done over the last month and where they were coming into this offseason,” Singleton said during his introductory Zoom press conference Monday. “It’s obviously an enticing and a really exciting place. I want to be some place where I’m respected as a player with what I can do and what I can bring to an organization.” - Singleton’s competition for a starting job next to Josey Jewell could include Jonas Griffith and Baron Browning (if Browning isn’t moved to outside linebacker), and potentially a drafted rookie. - Singleton’s isn’t guaranteed a starting spot but he’ll be given a shot, and that’s all he wanted. - “Over the last week talking to teams and talking to personnel, this was one of the places that showed me the most respect and showed me what I’m able to do for them,” he said. “The second that happened, it was a pretty easy decision for me to make to want to come here. I’m here to compete and I’m here to do everything I can to make this the best team in the AFC West and the best team in the NFL.” - Singleton, 28, is entering his fourth season in the NFL. - Follow the Broncos Wire Podcast: - Apple Podcasts | Spotify | Google Podcasts - - - List - - Randy Gregory signing: Cowboys fan provides Dallas 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.
