Plummer lost his job last season to rookie Jay Cutler after playing inconsistently over the first half of the season. Plummer also fell out of favor with the Broncos during the playoffs in the 2005 season after a poor performance in the AFC championship game against Pittsburgh.
However, Plummer now will play for coach Jon Gruden, who has shown an affinity for veteran quarterbacks during his days in Oakland and Tampa Bay. Gruden helped Oakland’s Rich Gannon during a late-career rebirth in which Gannon won an NFL MVP award.
