Finds opportunity
Alexander signed with the Broncos' practice squad Wednesday, Parker Gabriel of The Denver Post reports.
ANALYSIS
Alexander is fully healed from an Achilles injury suffered last season and recently worked out for the Falcons and Vikings. The veteran linebacker played nine regular-season games for the Steelers last season, recording 41 combined tackles, 1.0 sacks, an interception and a forced fumble. He'll likely be a candidate to find his way to the 53-man roster once he's up to speed and proves he's in game shape.

Alexander has top-12 linebacker IDP upside when healthy, but he's had tremendously bad injury luck the past couple years, to the point that it's casting doubt over his long-term durability. He missed four games with a hamstring injury in 2017, tore an ACL in 2018 and suffered a pectoral tear in October 2019. Upon his return last year, he then suffered a biceps injury that required offseason surgical repair. Those injuries are numerous but also all over the place, perhaps offering some reassurance that he's avoided any chronic conditions. Dre Greenlaw played reasonably well in Alexander's place as a 2019 fifth-round pick, however, so there's a non-zero risk that Alexander loses some share of the snap workload if he continues to miss practice reps.
