Darby tore his ACL in early October and was released by the Broncos this offseason.

The standard nine to 12-month recovery timeline could put him in line to contribute to a team looking for veteran help later this summer. 

Darby, 29, is a former second-round pick of the Bills out of Florida State back in 2015. The Eagles traded WR Jordan Matthews and a 2018 third-round pick to the Bills in return for Darby in 2017.

Darby played out the final year of his four-year, $4.569 million contract before returning to the Eagles on a one-year contract. From there, he agreed to a one-year, $4 million contract with Washington. 

The Broncos signed Darby to a three-year, $30 million contract with $19 million fully guaranteed in 2021. However, he was released after two seasons. 

In 2022, Darby appeared in five games for the Broncos and recorded 14 tackles, no interceptions, a forced fumble, and three pass deflections.
