The Denver Broncos signed rookie inside linebacker Alec Mock on Tuesday.

Mock appeared in 38 games (35 starts) in four seasons for the Air Force Academy. He totaled 224 tackles (112 solo), five sacks, one interception (18 yards, 1 TD), four passes defensed, three forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries.

Mock originally was signed by the Broncos as undrafted free agent. He was released in June, however, when Denver signed linebacker Dondrea Tillman.

In a corresponding move, the Broncos designated outside linebacker Ronnie Perkins as waived/injured. He will revert to the injured list if he clears waivers.

A third-round pick of the Patriots in 2021, Perkins never appeared in a regular season game with New England. After being taken from the Patriots' practice squad last September, Perkins notched 13 tackles in seven games for the Broncos.
