Former New York Giants center Jon Halapio, whom the team wanted to return here in 2020, has been signed to the Denver Broncos’ practice squad.

The Broncos officially announced the signing shortly after Halapio broke the news on Twitter.

Originally a sixth-round pick of the New England Patriots in the 2014 NFL Draft, Halapio was a bit of a journeyman before landing with the Giants in 2016. He spent time with the Boston Brawlers and Brooklyn Bolts of the Fall Experimental Football League, as well as the Broncos and Arizona Cardinals.

At the time he joined the Giants in 2016, Halapio was a member of the practice squad but found himself promoted to the active roster in 2017. He made his first career start in Week 12 of that season.

Following his promotion, Halaprio took over as the starting center, but serious injuries ended his year early in both 2018 and 2019.

Halapio briefly re-signed with the Giants earlier this year but was waived in September. He also previously had a workout with the Houston Texans.
