Overview
- Multiple national reporters, including Matt Zenitz, Adam Schefter and Ian Rapoport, reported Thursday that the Denver Broncos have signed safety Taylor Rapp.
- Rapp is a 28-year-old former 2019 second-round pick who won a Super Bowl with the Los Angeles Rams and spent three seasons with the Buffalo Bills before his spring release.
- Buffalo had given Rapp a multi-year extension in March 2024 but he suffered a season-ending injury in 2025 and was released this year, so his immediate availability depends on any final health clearance.
- Denver expects Rapp to step into the top backup safety role and contribute on special teams behind starters Brandon Jones and All-Pro Talanoa Hufanga, addressing a roster hole created by recent injuries.
- Rapp brings proven experience—dozens of starts, near 500 career tackles and multiple interceptions—which gives the Broncos veteran depth now and sets up a possible storyline when Buffalo visits Denver on Christmas Day in Week 16.
