The Denver Broncos have agreed to terms on a four-year contract with rookie defensive lineman McTelvin Agim, the team announced Wednesday.
Agim’s contract is expected to have a signing bonus of $857,265 with a total value of $4,152,268, according to KUSA-TV’s Mike Klis. His signing bonus will be prorated over the four years of his contract for salary cap purposes.
Agim (6-3, 309 pounds) totaled 140 tackles — including 31 tackles for losses — and 14.5 sacks during his four years at Arkansas. He also broke up four passes, recovered two fumbles and forced six fumbles during his time with the Razorbacks.
Agim, one of the team’s third-round picks, will compete with DeMarcus Walker, Dre’Mont Jones, Jonathan Harris and Christian Covington for a spot on the 53-man roster as rotational defensive lineman.
Denver’s draft class will have combined salary cap hits of $9,980,665 but the net cap hit will be closer to $3,219,217. After signing their draft class, the Broncos will have about $13,837,021 in remaining salary cap space.
