(SportsNetwork.com) – DeMarcus Ware is heading to Denver.<\/p>\n
Pending a physical, the Broncos and Ware have reached an agreement on a three- year deal worth $30 million, with $20 million guaranteed, according to multiple reports.<\/p>\n
The addition of Ware gives the Broncos the best pass-rushing duo in the NFL. Ware prefers to line up at right defensive end and pass-rushing linebacker Von Miller likes the left side.<\/p>\n
The Dallas Cowboys surprisingly released Ware on Tuesday, prior to the opening of free agency. Ware’s cap hit for the 2014 season was to be $16 million.<\/p>\n
The 31-year-old Ware has totaled 117 sacks since 2005, when Dallas selected him in the first round (11th overall) of that year’s draft.<\/p>\n
Ware compiled 40 tackles and six sacks while participating in 13 games for the Cowboys in 2013 — the first time in his career he failed to see action in every contest during a given season. A strained quad suffered in October cost the Troy product three games mid-season.<\/p>\n
In 141 games with the Cowboys, Ware racked up 574 tackles and two interceptions, one of which he returned for a touchdown, in addition to the overall club record for taking down the quarterback. Ware set a single-season sacks record with 20 in 2008.<\/p>\n
