The Denver Broncos have signed linebacker Kristian Welch after he was released by the Green Bay Packers, where he had a standout preseason. Welch, a Wisconsin native, recorded two interceptions and a fumble recovery during the preseason, tying for the team lead with 16 tackles. Despite his impressive performance, the Packers decided to part ways with him due to a logjam at linebacker, opting to keep other players ahead of him on the depth chart. Welch previously played for the Baltimore Ravens, contributing significantly on special teams over three seasons before joining the Packers. There is speculation that the Packers might seek to re-sign him for their practice squad, but as a vested veteran, he can choose his next team. Welch's future remains uncertain as he embarks on this new chapter with the Broncos.
