Broncos Signing OLB Ronnie Perkins Off Patriots Practice Squad

Denver’s had some injuries at edge rusher so Perkins will beef up their depth there. 

Perkins, 23, was a three-year starter at Oklahoma and was named second-team All-Big 12 in 2019 and 2020. The Patriots took Perkins with pick No. 96 overall in the third round of the 2021 NFL Draft.

Perkins signed a four-year deal worth $4,785,850 that also included a $840,618 signing bonus. He was in the third year of that deal when the Patriots waived him coming out of the preseason and re-signed him to the practice squad. 

Unfortunately due to injuries, Perkins has yet to appear in an NFL game.
