Former Bills Safety Signs with Broncos
Former Buffalo Bills safety and Super Bowl champion Taylor Rapp has signed with the Denver Broncos on Thursday.
On Thursday, August 20, the Denver Broncos announced the signing of former Super Bowl champion and former Buffalo Bills safety Taylor Rapp, according to reports from CBS Sports. The 2019 second-round draft pick has made 72 career starts, recorded 488 tackles, and intercepted the ball 12 times during his NFL career. Rapp is a starter for the Bills in 2023 before a season-ending injury.
He was initially drafted by the Los Angeles Rams in the second round of the 2019 NFL Draft and started 48 games over his rookie contract, contributing to the team's victory in Super Bowl LVI. Following three years in Buffalo, Rapp started 24 games, serving as the designated starter in his last two seasons. However, his career has been significantly challenged by injuries, resulting in the loss of 23 games over seven years.
For the Broncos, Rapp brings a physical safety presence to their roster, complementing All-Pro starter Talanoa Hufanga and free safety Brandon Jones. With Hufanga and Jones combined, the Broncos have only two NFL starts. If Rapp can maintain his health, he is expected to secure a spot as the third safety on the team by the end of the month.
