The Denver Broncos have signed cornerback Mario Goodrich to a one-year contract for the 2025 season. Goodrich, who excelled in the United Football League (UFL) with the Birmingham Stallions, recorded 12 solo tackles, 5 pass breakups, and 3 forced fumbles in six games.
Joining a competitive cornerback room that includes Patrick Surtain II and rookie Jahdae Barron, Goodrich will likely serve as a special teams contributor and reserve cornerback. His physical zone coverage skills and ability to play backup safety roles enhance his value to the Broncos' secondary.
Despite facing stiff competition from players like Riley Moss and Kris Abrams-Draine, Goodrich's recent UFL performance and versatility position him as a strong candidate for the Broncos' 53-man roster. His signing adds depth to the Broncos' defense, particularly after the team waived defensive back Tanner McCalister to accommodate Goodrich.
