The Denver Broncos sign RB Michael Pittman
The Broncos have signed veteran running back Michael Pittman to a 1-year contract. Pittman might be 32 years old but the man can still play and he will compete for carries in the Broncos’ backfield. Pittman played in 10 games for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers last season and he carried the ball 68 times for 286 yards (4.2 ypc). He also caught 26 passes last season for 191 yards (7.3 avg). Pittman has now played in 145 games in his NFL career and he has carried the ball 1,316 times for 5,307 yards (4.0 ypc) with 21 TD runs. He also has caught 415 passes for 3,400 yards (8.2 avg) with 8 TD grabs. This was a good signing for the Broncos as Pittman’s style fits well with the offense.
