Veteran safety Taylor Rapp is officially a Bronco, with Denver bringing him in to add some depth on Thursday. This move adds a familiar name to their defensive backfield in late August.
The Recent Past and Rapp’s Road Back
Rapp, who is 28 years old, spent his last three seasons playing for the Buffalo Bills. But here’s the kicker: he only appeared in six games last year because of a knee injury. That injury saw him released by Buffalo back in March, making this signing a fresh start, sure, but one with some major questions already hanging over it.
Career Highlights and What’s Next for Denver
A second-round pick by the Los Angeles Rams in 2019, Rapp has a solid career resume, playing in 93 games with 72 starts. He’s recorded 12 interceptions and broken up 31 passes. For Denver, the focus will absolutely be on that knee, and getting him back to the form that made him a reliable veteran. They need him ready.
The Broncos are set to host Green Bay for their second preseason game on Friday. It’ll be interesting to see how Rapp gets integrated and what he can contribute as the regular season gets closer.
