Vonnie Holliday Signs with Broncos

Posted Sat Sep 5th by

Vonnie Holliday

The Denver Broncos were taking a look at veteran defensive end Vonnie Holliday this weekend.

Apparently, they liked what they saw.

Mike Klis of the Denver Post reports that the Broncos signed Holliday (6-5, 288) today. Holliday, 33, is expected to see time in the team’s defensive line rotation and compete for a starting spot at defensive end.

“He’s versatile so he can play wherever the team decides to play him,” Holliday’s agent Cary Fabrikant tells the Post. “He’s an extremely talented football player who’s been a starter for long periods of time.”

    Apparently the NFL goofed. In its PR/media black book, it said cuts were due by 4pm ET. They’re due by 6… so we’re waiting a bit longer.

    Never heard of this guy. Is he any good?

    anthony33,
    He was good a while ago. Now he is 33. No other team wanted him since the end of last season. we did not want him until the NE guy got injured. looks like another Sam Adams 2 yrs ago.

    The difference is this guy’s 100 lbs. lighter, a few years younger (I think) and was a starter on a *good* defense last year. Hardly like Sam Adams at all, in my opinion.

    New England worked him out too. Maybe he just didn’t want to go through the TC grind?

    This is a solid pick up, solid rotational DL guy who is a not too old vet with no issues.

    Vonnie is a good player. Comparing him to Sam Adams is absurd.
