According to Troy E. Renck of the Denver Post, the Broncos are the “front-runner” to sign free agent TE Virgil Green.

  • Renck mentions that the Broncos have made Green a multi-year offer, but he found interest from 13 NFL teams with six to eight of them having serious interest.
  • Jason La Canfora previously reported that the market for Green was likely to come down to the Bears and the Broncos.

Green, 26, appeared in 13 games and caught six passes for 74 yards receiving and a touchdown for the Broncos in 2014. Pro Football Focus has him rated as the No. 11 out of 67 qualifying players.

We have Green listed as the No. 48 player in our Top 100 Free Agents list.
