Broncos Release DL Jarvis Green
By admin
The Denver Broncos have informed defensive end Jarvis Green that he will be released, Mike Reiss of ESPNBoston.com reports.
Green signed a four-year, $20 million contract with the Broncos on March 9. Green's deal included a $2.5 million signing bonus, and a fully guaranteed $755,000 base salary for the 2010 season.
A fourth-round pick (126th overall) in the 2002 NFL Draft out of LSU, Green started 46 games over the last eight seasons with the New England Patriots, totaling 232 tackles and 28 quarterback sacks.
Green was working behind Ryan McBean on the Broncos' defensive line.
There will assuredly be interest in the 31-year old Green, perhaps from the Patriots, who have lost Ty Warren for the season to a hip injury.
