In another roster move this offseason, George Paton and the Denver Broncos have signed Detroit’s unrestricted free agent wide receiver Josh Reynolds.
The receiver, who started thirteen of the seventeen games he played for the Detroit Lions last season, has a seven-year career that includes 220 receptions for 2,933 receiving yards and eight touchdowns in 107 regular-season games and 19 receptions for 318 receiving yards and one touchdown in nine playoff games.
Reynolds inked a two-year, $14 million contract on March 28, and he’s ready to get started.
Reynolds revealed that his uncle is a “die-hard” Broncos supporter, and that there is a lot of family support for this team shift. It’s because of this that he’s so eager to establish his own legacy in Denver.
“Even saying that y’all were in the mix of things, you know, they [his family] were ecstatic,” he added of signing with the Broncos.
He’s glad to be here for more than just family reasons. When asked why he believes Denver was the proper decision for him, Reynolds revealed that he has always been a “admirer” of head coach Sean Payton, that he is “looking forward to working with him,” and that he is “hyped” to join his offensive plan.
“Seeing him with the Saints for so long… I just love his creativeness, man, and I know he’s going to put great people around the facility,” he went on to say.
Last, but maybe most significantly, Reynolds was asked what abilities he brings to Denver. He described himself as “smooth,” which he believes will be key for playmaking this season, and he aspires to be a “guy that can help win.”
