Broncos pick up Ty Warren

APFor the second straight year, the Broncos are giving a recently released Patriots defensive lineman good money.
Denver just hopes
Ty Warren makes the team, unlike Jarvis Green last year.
Adam Schefter of ESPN reports Warren agreed to terms on a two-year, $10 million contract. $2.5 million is guaranteed. (It’s unclear if that’s Warren’s entire first year sum.)
While Warren struggled to stay healthy recently for the Patriots, he was one of the most unsung players for New England over the last decade. His play didn’t decline much when he was on the field.
The Broncos badly needed to add numbers to their defensive line, and they have done it in bulk in recent days with Warren,
Marcus Thomas, Brodick Bunkley, and
Derrick Harvey.
