When the Denver Broncos signed inside linebacker Alex Singleton to a one-year, minimum-salary contract last spring, the defender was expected to contribute primarily on special teams in 2022.
Due to several injuries at linebacker, though, the Broncos ended up starting Singleton on defense in 12 games. The 29-year-old linebacker took advantage of his opportunity and led the team with 163 tackles, marking a new career high that topped his previous best of 137 in 2021.
