The Denver Broncos are signing undrafted free agent quarterback Riley Neal, according to a report from NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero.
Neal (6-6, 225 pounds) spent four years at Ball State before transferring to Vanderbilt for his senior season. Last fall, he completed 57.8 percent of his passes for 1,585 yards with nine touchdowns against five interceptions.
In his college career, Neal completed 59.6 percent of his passes for 8,978 yards with 55 touchdowns against 30 interceptions. He also rushed for 1,410 yards and 15 touchdowns while in college.
In a pre-draft interview with Titans Wire’s Crissy Froyd, Neal spoke about his willingness to go anywhere and compete for a roster spot.
“I think I’ve played a decent amount of football, and I have some experience. I’m someone who is going to come in and work every day, fill whatever role they find necessary,” Neal told Titans Wire.
“I’m not too picky, of course I’ll go anywhere that I’m wanted and that’s good for me. I don’t have any specific criteria for that.”
Neal will become Denver’s fourth-string QB, behind Drew Lock, Jeff Driskel and Brett Rypien. He will have long odds to make the final roster.
