Broncos coach Sean Payton last week brought back a fullback he used to coach. Now, he’s added one of his former running backs, Chris Tomasson of The Colorado Gazette reports.

The Broncos on Thursday signed free-agent Tony Jones Jr. to a one-year contract. Jones spent 2020 and 2021 with Payton in New Orleans before splitting last season with the Saints and the Seattle Seahawks.

Jones, who was undrafted in 2020 out of Notre Dame, has 179 yards rushing on 67 carries in three NFL seasons for an average of 2.7 yards per carry. He gained 142 of those yards for the Saints in 2021 on 54 carries for an average gain of 2.6 yards.
