ENGLEWOOD, Colo.One of the Broncos' 2025 third-round picks has put pen to paper on his rookie deal.

Defensive end Sai'vion Jones has signed his four-year rookie contract, the team announced Thursday.

Jones, the 101st-overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, was the fourth Broncos draft pick to sign his rookie deal.

The LSU product recorded 40 tackles, 7.5 tackles for loss, 4.5 sacks, two forced fumbles and two passes defensed in his final season for the Tigers.

"He kind of fits our mold of defensive line," General Manager George Paton said after the draft. "The size six-[foot]-six, 280 [pounds]. We feel like he can continue to grow in that role. He'll play [defensive] end for us, but he has flexibility down the line of scrimmage. This guy is long. He's strong [and] plays with really good leverage. Then he's improving as a rusher. You could see that throughout the season, then you got to the Senior Bowl. We thought he had a really good week and played really well in the game. So he's just going to keep getting better. [Defensive Line Coach] Jamar Cain has coached him, so again, we had insight on him like we did some of the others. I think what sticks out with him is just how hard he plays. The motor he goes 110 miles per hour every play, so he fits in with our group. He'll have time to develop as well as he has good guys in front of him."

After recording 38 combined pressures in first three seasons, Jones broke out with 43 pressures in 2024.
