ENGLEWOOD, Colo. – With the signing of seven-time Pro Bowl defensive end DeMarcus Ware, the Broncos hope to be adding a player that contributes both on and off the field.
On the field, Ware’s accomplishments are easy to see.
He has 117 sacks in his nine-year career and his 0.83 sacks-per-game rate is second only to Hall-of-Fame defensive end Reggie White’s 0.85.
Off the field, Ware is hoping he can help the Broncos’ young all-pro pass rusher, Von Miller.
"When Von first came in, before he got drafted, I talked to him a little bit,” Ware said. “I've been mentoring him. Being able now to have the opportunity to play with him is a whole different thing. I'll be in the same locker room with him, being able to teach him some things. I'm looking forward to that opportunity. I just think that it's going to be great."
