Broncos Keeping Their Core Intact. Linebacker Alex Singleton Returns as Dre Greenlaw Exits

Singleton signed a two-year, $15.5 million deal and led the team with 135 tackles in 2025; releasing Greenlaw saves over $4 million in salary cap space.

  • On Monday, the Denver Broncos re-signed inside linebacker Alex Singleton on a two-year, $15.5 million deal and released inside linebacker Dre Greenlaw.
  • Availability problems forced the Broncos' hand because Greenlaw missed 9 games last season due to quad, hamstring injuries, and a one-game suspension, leaving limited impact.
  • Singleton returns after an ACL tear to lead Denver with 135 tackles last season, has 768 tackles across seven NFL seasons, and played 89 of 90 snaps after cancer surgery.
  • As a result, the Broncos' inside linebacker group features Singleton and Justin Strnad as its foundation, with Strnad earning a full-time starting job.
  • Looking at cap effects, the release saves about $6 million in cap space this season but carries roughly $4 million in dead-cap charges, maintaining continuity with Singleton for Vance Joseph.
