Chase Edmonds is landing on his feet after being cut by the Denver Broncos.
Edmonds has agreed to terms on a one-year contract with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, according to multiple reports. Edmonds, 26, was acquired by the Broncos from the Miami Dolphins as part of the Bradley Chubb trade last year.
Edmonds rushed 26 times for 125 yards and totaled six receptions for 61 receiving yards in five games with Denver last season.
The Broncos released Edmonds on March 10, a move that saved the team $5.92 million in salary cap space. Some of that extra cap space was used to sign Samaje Perine to a two-year, $7.5 million contract earlier this week.
With starting running back Javonte Williams facing an uncertain recovery timeline from his ACL and LCL injuries, Denver brought in Perine to serve as insurance early in the season. Once Williams is healthy, Perine will be an excellent complementary piece in the team’s backfield rotation.
Edmonds, meanwhile, will get a fresh start with the Bucs, his fourth team since 2021.
