Broncos Re-sign QB Ehlinger, Compete for Backup Role

0:00For the NFL, it's March 9th. Here's what's happening. The Denver Broncos have resigned quarterback Sam Ellinger to a one-year deal worth $2 million. He's back as their third string option behind the main guys. Reports from insiders like Ann Rappaport confirmed the move during this busy free agency window. Last season, Ellinger joined the Broncos and quickly fit in. They waved him during final cuts, but he turned down a spot on another team's 53 man roster to stay on Denver's practice squad instead. He really liked the quarterback room and the coaching staff, especially quarterback's coach Davis Webb, who's now the offensive coordinator. The team called him up to the active roster several times, though he never saw a game action. For now, Ellinger will compete for that same backup role, unless trade rumors around Jared Stidham shake things up. He's joining other resignings today, like Linebacker, Justin Strohnad, and Titan's Adam Troutman, and Nate Adkins.

1:00The Broncos are also pushing to bring back Linebacker Alex Singleton before the legal tampering period starts tomorrow at noon eastern time. Keep an eye on free agency moves as they heat up.
