Broncos offer former Browns first-rounder Phil Taylor another chance

Much like they did with Marvin Austin Jr. two years ago, the Denver Broncos are going to take a look at another high draft pick who has battled injuries in his career.

Always in search of more depth on the defensive line, the Broncos signed defensive tackle Phil Taylor on Monday. Taylor was a first-round draft pick by the Cleveland Browns -- 21st overall -- in 2011. Taylor had been out of the league since he reached an injury settlement with the Browns in the final roster cuts before the start of the 2015 season, after two knee surgeries had derailed his 2014 season.
