The Broncos have become the latest team to bring in post-draft players, as they’ve announced the signing of the following eight undrafted college free agents:
- John Diarse, WR (TCU)
- Jeff Holland, LB (Auburn)
- Leon Johnson, T (Temple)
- Lowell Lotulelei, DT (Utah)
- Phillip Lindsay, RB (Colorado)
- Trey Marshall, S (Florida State)
- Austin Schlottmann, G (TCU)
- Jimmy Williams, WR (East Carolina)
Holland and Lindsay were Denver’s big gets, according to Mike Klis of 9News (Twitter link), as each received a signing bonus of $15K. Holland, who won’t turn 21 years old until September, put up 12.5 tackles for loss and 9.5 sacks during his final season with the tigers. Lindsay, meanwhile, topped 1,000 yards rushing in each of the last two campaigns, and will get an opportunity as a returner, per Klis.
I was shocked- SHOCKED- that Jeff Holland wasn’t drafted.
I’m happy for Phillip Lindsay. I was very surprised he wasn’t drafted. He’s a heck of a player and had a great career at Colorado.
