Knighton played the first four years of his career with Jacksonville, the first three of which were led by Del Rio, who was the team’s head coach.

“Del Rio is a great guy to work with,” Knighton said. “He knows what type of player I am, what type of system and what type of style I’ll excel in. I’m just ready to get going and meet the guys and be around them.”

Some Love for a Former Bronco

January 23rd, 2009 - 10:29am by Gray CaldwellOther posts by

With the Senior Bowl ready to kick off tomorrow, showcasing some of the premier college talent trying to raise their stock before the NFL Draft, one of our esteemed PR workers Erich Schubert happened upon this quote on a former Bronco that impressed in the game years ago — Al Wilson.

“He was very impressive that day,” Jacksonville Jaguars Head Coach Jack Del Rio said on Jaguars.com. “We were right down on him. I was almost in the huddle. He was just real infectious with his passion. He would rally the guys. He took charge of the huddle. He played with a great deal of energy and had some real jarring hits during the week. I knew he was going to play well and make it in the NFL and be a good player, which he was.”

Just thought we’d share that quote with you all.
