The Denver Broncos finally got sick of watching Frank Clark tear up their offensive line. The team reportedly signed the former division-rival Clark to a one-year, $7.5 million deal Thursday, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter.
Clark spent the past four seasons with the Kansas City Chiefs. He excelled with the club, making the Pro Bowl in his first three seasons with the team. He gave the Broncos plenty of trouble over the years. In nine games against them, Clark has four sacks and nine quarterback hits.
It's yet another big move for the Broncos, who are hoping to improve on both sides of the ball in 2023. The team's offense was the bigger issue, ranking 32nd in points per game, but the defense also took a small step back. After ranking third in points against in 2021, the Broncos dropped to 14th in points against in 2022.
Denver's inability to get to the quarterback may have led to that decline. The Broncos sacked opposing quarterbacks 36 times in 2022, which tied for the ninth lowest in the NFL. Clark hasn't put up gaudy sack totals the last few seasons, but has a 13-sack and a 10-sack season on his résumé from his time with the Seattle Seahawks.
On the offensive end, the team lured former New Orleans Saints head coach Sean Payton out of retirement. The Broncos are hoping Payton can coach Russell Wilson back to Pro Bowl form.
If Wilson improves and the defense returns to its former level, the Broncos could reemerge as a contender in the AFC West. That could give Clark some extra motivation to go off when he takes on the Chiefs twice in 2023.

Daniel Weinman won the World Series of Poker's main event world championship on Monday in Las Vegas, earning $12.1 million along the way. Playing in the tournament for a 16th year, Weinman was tops in a deep pool of 10,043 players vying for $93.39 million. His victory came after just 164 hands at the final table. "I was honestly on the fence about even coming back and playing this tournament," the 35-year-old Atlanta native told reporters afterward. Weinman's final table featured Jan-Peter Jachtmann, who landed in fourth place and took home $3 million, as well as Toby Lewis, who finished seventh and secured $1.42 million. According to the Las Vegas Review-Journal, the main event's entry pool far outpaced the previous record of 8,773 set in 2006. "I've always kind of felt that poker was kind of going in a dying direction, but to see the numbers at the World Series this year has been incredible," Weinman said. "And to win this main event, it doesn't feel real. I mean, [there's] so much luck in a poker tournament. I thought I played very well." Steven Jones finished second, securing $6.5 million. And Adam Walton settled for third and a $4 million prize.
