In his one season as a Ram, Bibbs set single-season school records for rushing yards (1,741) and rushing touchdowns (31) while joining Barry Sanders and Montee Ball as the only college football players in history to score 30 touchdowns in a season.
The Broncos waived another former Ram in linebacker Shaquil Barrett to make room for Bibbs on the roster. Barrett, who earned Mountain West Defensive Player of the Year honors in 2013, is expected to be brought back on to Denver’s practice squad if he clears waivers.
