Dwight Freeney is one of the top pass rushers on the free agent market and he has already began to receive interest from a number of teams. According to the National Football Post, the Denver Broncos and Atlanta Falcons are two teams that have reached out to Freeney’s agent early in the process.

#Broncos, Falcons appear to have early interest in veteran pass rusher Dwight Freeney. Osi Umenyiora also may be on radar.

The Seattle Seahawks could also be interested in the 32-year-old defensive end if they miss out on John Abraham and Osi Umenyiora. Both players will receive a bigger contract on the open market, but Freeney would be a solid fall back option for the teams that miss out on the top two free agent defensive ends.
