The Denver Broncos signed free-agent veteran cornerback Fabian Moreau to an undisclosed one-year deal on Tuesday, according to a source. Moreau, who worked out for the Miami Dolphins recently, lands with the Broncos after appearing in 14 games (11 starts) for the New York Giants in 2022. The 29-year-old finished with 66 tackles (50 solo) and 10 passes defensed in his time with the G-Men last year. The former third-round pick of the Washington Commanders in 2017 out of UCLA will compete for a starting role in training camp with the Broncos across from first-rounder Patrick Surtain. In his six NFL seasons, Moreau has 252 tackles (178 solo), six interceptions, 35 passes defensed, three forced fumbles and a fumble recovery.
The New York Giants have reached an agreement with defensive back Fabian Moreau. The former third round pick spent the 2021 season with the Atlanta Falcons. He recorded 61 tackles and 11 passes defended in 16 games last season. The 28-year-old was signed by the Houston Texans in May, but released by the organization in August. This is a strong landing spot for Moreau. He'll be an upgrade to this unit that was unit 12th worst in coverage last season.
