ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- The Denver Broncos announced Tuesday that they have claimed linebacker Bruce Davis off waivers from the New England Patriots.

Davis, a third-year pro, spent most of last season on the Patriots' practice squad after playing in five games as a rookie in 2008 for the Pittsburgh Steelers, who had made him a third-round draft selection out of UCLA.

Davis ranked second in school history with 29 sacks and was a first-team All Pac-10 selection his senior season.

Davis was waived by the Patriots on Thursday.
