Gets big deal in Denver The Broncos signed Darby to a three-year, $30 million contract Monday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Impact Darby is cashing in after having played on a one-year, $3 million contract in Washington last season. He finally stayed healthy for a full 16-game slate in 2020, and his contract is an indication that the Broncos aren't too worried about the health concerns that plagued Darby earlier in his career. He's primed to occupy one of the team's outside starting cornerback spots next season.

Stays healthy all season Darby was a 16-game starter in 2020, recording 55 tackles (43 solo), 16 pass defenses and a fumble recovery on 1,001 defensive snaps.

Impact Darby was fifth in the league in PDs, yet didn't record a single interception. PFF graded him at No. 31 out of 122 qualified cornerbacks, 13 spots ahead of teammate Kendall Fuller. Washington more than got its money's worth on a one-year, $3 million contract, so it'll likely be far more expensive if the team wants to keep Darby around for 2021 and beyond. Granted, other franchises may have some concerns about his medical history, as the 27-year-old cornerback played just 28 games in his three seasons (2017-19) with the division-rival Eagles.

Back to work Thursday Darby (illness) was a full participant during Thursday's practice, Ben Standig of The Athletic reports.

Impact Darby missed Wednesday's practice session with a non-COVID-19 related illness, so the fact that he returned so quickly is a positive sign. Now that the veteran appears healthy, he'll assume his usual starting role at cornerback, tasked with slowing down the dangerous Dallas receiving corps Sunday.

Not practicing Wednesday Darby (illness) didn't practice Wednesday, John Keim of ESPN NFL Nation reports.

Impact Darby will hope to feel better as the week progresses, as his status come Sunday will be key against a Dallas receiving corps that features the fearsome trio of Amari Cooper, Michael Gallup and CeeDee Lamb. If the cornerback's able to return to practice in the coming days, there's a good chance that he'll be able to play.
