Restricted free agent Brandon McManus signed his second-round tender with the Broncos, Wednesday afternoon. The one-year contract is worth $2.8 million and a long-term deal is still possible, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter. Despite not having a contract, McManus participated fully in offseason programs.
The 25-year-old was the last Bronco on the roster without a contract. McManus is Denver’s 12th all-time leading scorer and ranks first in career field goal percentage among all Broncos with at least 20 attempts, ahead of Matt Prater, Jason Elam and David Treadwell.
McManus was the unsung hero of the 2016 Super Bowl run, when he converted all 10 of his postseason field goal attempts.
