Denver completed its trade with Cleveland, sending running back Reuben Droughns to the Browns for Ebenezer Ekuban and Michael Myers, two defensive lineman the Broncos hope will bolster their pass rush.

Ekuban, 28, played the first five years of his career with Dallas before joining Cleveland last year. He led the Browns with eight sacks last season.

Myers, 29, also played his first five full seasons (1998-'02) with Dallas before joining Cleveland as a free agent in 2003.

Denver earlier acquired another former Browns defensive lineman, Gerard Warren, and also signed Courtney Brown.

Denver is shifting its defense to a 3-4 formation after losing last year's leading pass rusher, Reggie Hayward, in free agency.

Former Pro Bowler Trevor Pryce, who missed most of last year with a back injury, has been given permission to seek a trade because he would count $9 million against Denver's salary cap this season.

Droughns, who led the Broncos with 1,240 yards rushing last season, was given permission to pursue a trade because he wasn't expected to start this year.

Steelers

The Steelers released first-year linebacker Lewis Moore. Moore, who signed with the Steelers February 1, originally signed with the Chicago Bears in 2004 as an undrafted free agent. He spent time in training camp with both the Bears and the New York Giants but was released by both teams prior to the regular season and did not play in 2004. Moore was a four-year letterman at the University of Pittsburgh.

Chargers

Jesse Chatman, the backup to Pro Bowl running back LaDainian Tomlinson, re-signed with San Diego. Chatman was a restricted free agent and agreed to a one-year deal.

Last year, Chatman had career highs of 392 yards on 65 carries and scored three touchdowns. With Tomlinson slowed by a groin injury, Chatman had several strong performances in San Diego's 12-4 season.

Jaguars

Jacksonville signed veteran Marcellus Wiley to a one-year contract, adding another free agent end to their defensive front. "If everything works out though, (the deal) could be for much longer by the end of the year," Wiley's agent Brad Blank said.

The 6-foot-4, 278-pound Wiley joins Jacksonville after one disappointing season in Dallas. He will likely start opposite fellow free agent end Reggie Hayward.

Cardinals

Arizona quarterback Josh McCown signed a $1.4 million tender offer with the Cardinals, who inked free agent Kurt Warner earlier this month.

McCown, a third-round draft pick in 2002, completed 233 of 408 passes for 2,511 yards, 11 touchdowns and 10 interceptions last season.

McCown was 6-7 as a starter last year, but sat out the other three games while coach Dennis Green gave Shaun King and John Navarre a shot.

The Cardinals signed Warner, a two-time NFL MVP, to a $4 million, one-year contract on March 8. He is expected to start at quarterback.

Bills

Bills president Tom Donahoe discounted Travis Henry's threat to sit out if he's not traded, saying the running back would seriously hurt his career if he missed next season.

Donahoe said he's still attempting to trade Henry, but added he expects the player to return to Buffalo for the final year of his contract if a deal doesn't materialize. "I have heard every threat that there is. It's just that time of year where people posture," Donahoe said.

Redskins

Washington re-signed 42- year-old Ray Brown, the oldest offensive lineman in National Football League history. Brown is returning for his 20th season in the NFL and his ninth with the Redskins. He played with Washington from 1989-95 and rejoined the team last season after Jon Jansen was injured.

Rams

Defensive end Jay Williams, who broke in with the Rams when they were in Los Angeles 11 years ago, is returning to the team. The Rams announced they've signed the 33-year-old Williams to a three-year, $2.65 million contract. The deal includes a $300,000 signing bonus. Williams spent six seasons with the Rams, then two with Carolina and three with Miami.
