Broncos sign former Cowboys player for their special teams
Sean Payton wants to have a very competitive roster for the 2023 campaign. The head coach has added several players during this offseason, and now he has surprised everybody by adding a player that Cowboys fans really hated last year.
According to The Denver Post, the AFC West team has agreed terms with Brett Maher to a one-year deal. He spent the 2022 season with the Dallas Cowboys, and fans really hated him at the end of it.
In the playoffs, the kicker faced an incredibly challenging time. He struggled, missing four consecutive extra points in the Wild Card round against the Buccaneers, but fortunately, his team managed to advance.
However, the following week, he missed another crucial point in their 19-12 loss against the 49ers, leading the Cowboys to make the difficult decision to release him.
