The Denver Broncos added veteran tight end John Phillips to the roster on Thursday afternoon, waiving tight end Mannaseh Garner to keep the roster at 90 players.
Phillips is a 6-5, 251 pound tight end and former sixth round draft pick of the Dallas Cowboys out of Virginia. He has started 32 games in his eight years in the NFL, playing in a total of 95 games. He brings some more experience to a Broncos tight end group that has had a few players nursing injuries this offseason.
Known mostly for his blocking, Phillips has caught 45 passes with four touchdowns over the course of his time in the NFL, and has also racked up 37 special teams tackles.
