DENVER (AP) - The Denver Broncos signed free agent wide receiver David Terrell on Wednesday to take the spot vacated when Jerry Rice retired. Terrell, a fifth-year player, was released by New England on Saturday after signing with the team on April 5. He was a first-round draft choice of the Chicago Bears and eighth overall in 2001, but never made much of a contribution with the Bears. "It is nice to have him in and get him started," coach Mike Shanahan said. "He will get a chance to adapt this week and start to get used to a different language."

 

He has 128 career catches for 1,602 yards with nine touchdowns in 53 regular-season games. He is one of six receiver on the Denver roster. The Broncos have Rod Smith, Ashley Lelie, Darius Watts, Charlie Adams and Todd Devoe.

Does that indicate we're so loaded with talented receivers that he could latch on ? Or is it, he's that bad ?
