The Denver Broncos have re-signed defensive end Le Kevin Smith, per the Denver Broncos' Twitter page and Rotoworld. 

Smith is a former sixth round pick of the New England Patriots in 2006, and was acquired by the Broncos along with a seventh round pick for the team's fifth round pick in 2010. 

After a rocky first season with the Broncos, Denver has decided to at least give Smith a chance to make it out of camp.  He is the fourth defensive lineman signed by the Broncos since free agency began, and after not being tendered by the Broncos, it was rumored he was visiting the Patriots.

Smith appeared in 13 games for the Broncos, starting twice, and he recorded ten tackles over the course of the season.
