bubba Posted September 2, 2014 Report Share Posted September 2, 2014 Hadn't seen that reported anywhere, when did this happen? Slow to recover from a dislocated hip that sidelined him down the stretch in 2013, Vickerson was unable to fend off free agent Marvin Austin, a former second-round pick who had a stellar camp after undergoing back surgery late last year, and Mitch Unrein, whos younger, cheaper, healthier and more versatile. We owe Vick a lot, Elway said. He played well when he was here. Vickerson said he felt fine after playing 39 snaps in the Broncos preseason finale, where he had five tackles. Hes played in 71 NFL games with Denver (2010-13), Tennessee (2007-09) and Miami (2005-06) in addition to a season in the old NFL Europe.http://denver.cbslocal.com/2014/08/30/broncos-cut-kevin-vickerson-duke-ihenacho/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eva4ben-gal Posted September 2, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2014 Well it seems like he's an upgrade over Bilukidi, wonder if that's who goes or if they drop a player elsewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scharm Posted September 2, 2014 Report Share Posted September 2, 2014 I hope this isn't an emergency signing for some unknown injury.

The PatternMaster Posted September 2, 2014 Report Share Posted September 2, 2014 Until it's officially annouced by the Bengals I wouldn't believe anything related to signings, haven't we learned anything from the Vontaze Burfict debacle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inigo Montoya Posted September 2, 2014 Report Share Posted September 2, 2014 I would guess this means Vickerson either takes Bilukidi's spot or someone (Porter, Burkhead, Jones?) goes on IR return. I like the move to add a veteran with some size and some nastiness. It makes sense to do it after cutting Still. Once they got him back on the practice squad, Bilukidi becomes expendable and they were probably surprised Vickerson was available. As long as he can stay healthy, heis no doubt an upgrade.

bubba Posted September 2, 2014 Report Share Posted September 2, 2014 MileHighReport @MileHighReport Follow Former #Broncos DT Kevin Vickerson appears to have signed with the #Bengals, from his Instagram account (via @bylindsayhjones) That nasty defense just got nastier. The Chargers also showed interest in Big Vick; I'm glad he didn't wind up in the division! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inigo Montoya Posted September 3, 2014 Report Share Posted September 3, 2014 Mike Klis from the Denver Post is reporting the Bengals want to wait to sign Vickerson since he is a vested veteran. Makes sense to be cautious since he is coming off hip surgery and isn't exactly young at 31. Reading some of the news and comments regarding his release, many Broncos fans were surprised and held Vickerson in high regard. Seemed like it was a case of Denver wanting to go with a younger, cheaper option at DT and dumping a little salary ( around $2 million). It seems like he is OK health -wise and there were no issues with him passing our physical. The concern is that someone else might poach him before next week.
