The Facts: Under HC Gary Kubiak, the Broncos plan to bring back the fullback. They’ll do that at least in part by reuniting Kubiak with Casey. The Broncos have announced that Casey has signed a one-year contract.

Diehards Line: A fifth-round pick of the Texans in 2009, Casey spent four years in Houston and the last two in Philadelphia. Casey is the second former Texans tight end Kubiak has brought to Denver; Owen Daniels signed earlier in free agent.
