In days after cancer surgery, Broncos' Alex Singleton is still helping Denver's linebackers
DENVER — Somehow, Alex Singleton was smiling.
He smiles often. He has been cut in the NFL “10 times,” as Denver defensive coordinator Vance Joseph recalled Thursday, and still smiles. Singleton has smiled through a career resuscitation in the Canadian Football League, and through a torn ACL that wiped out his 2024 season.
