ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- **The Broncos have agreed to terms on a one-year contract with defensive end Antonio Smith.
Smith, who was released by the Raiders after one season, will be entering his 12th NFL season.

Playing on 68.4 percent of the Raiders' snaps, Smith rated very highly in Pro Football Focus in the pass rush as the third-best pass rushing defensive tackle in the NFL in 2014.
Prior to his year in Oakland, he spent five seasons with the Texans, starting all but one of his 79 games for Houston, where he played for head coach Gary Kubiak and defensive line coach Bill Kollar.
