The Denver Broncos sign linebacker Nick Greisen

The Broncos have signed 29-year old linebacker Nick Greisen to a 1-year deal.  Greisen played in 14 games for the Ravens last season and he made 11 tackles.  He has now played in 98 games in his 7-year NFL career and he has made 255 tackles, has defensed 13 passes, has 4 sacks, forced 5 fumbles and he has intercepted 1 pass.  Greisen will be a special teams ace for the Broncos and he will provide solid depth at linebacker.  To make room for Greisen the Broncos have released 25-year old TE Adam Bergen.  Bergen has not caught a pass since the 2006 season with the Arizona Cardinals.  He has played in 30 games in his NFL career and he has caught 43 passes for 381 yards (8.9 avg) with 2 TD grabs. 

UPDATE:  The Broncos have placed Nick Greisen on the Injured Reserve List with a knee injury ending his season.  This is a shame as he could have got some playing time with the Broncos this season as they are very thin at linebacker.
