Broncos signed seventh-round CB Taurean Nixon to a four-year contract.
A sub-package corner in college, Nixon ran 4.36 at his Pro Day with a 38-1/2" vertical. He’ll be developed as a slot option for DC Wade Phillips. Nixon will focus on special teams as a rookie.

Broncos signed CB Taurean Nixon from their practice squad.
He’s taking Omar Bolden’s spot on the active roster. Denver’s secondary is banged up right now with Bolden (knee) and David Bruton (leg) out for the season and Chris Harris battling a left shoulder injury. Nixon has yet to play an NFL snap.
