The Broncos have added some veteran help to their defensive line.
Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports that they are signing defensive tackle Christian Covington to a one-year contract. The deal is worth up to $1.75 million with $625,000 guaranteed.
Covington played in every game for the Cowboys last season and made six starts. He had 28 tackles and a sack in those appearances. Covington spent the previous four seasons with the Texans as a rotational player on their defensive line.
The Broncos have re-signed defensive linemen Shelby Harris and Joel Heath while Derek Wolfe left for Baltimore. They also traded for Jurrell Casey and drafted McTelvin Agim in the third round.
