Mile High Report
Lost in all the dangerous components of the Broncos’ elite defense are a pair of playmakers in their prime. I’m not talking about Nik Bonitto and Jonathan Cooper. I’m not talking about Patrick Surtain II and Riley Moss.
I’m talking about Brandon Jones and Talanoa Hufanga. When healthy, this is one of the strongest safety tandems in the NFL:
But it is how the defense hums when both of them are on the field that I’m excited about for this season. With Jones out, Hufanga had a bit more of the load to handle on the back end at times. With Jones healthy, either of them can play more aggressive positions knowing they have an excellent veteran on the other side of the field to hold it down.
Jones ’ run support has always been a staple. He’s able to help our sub packages be more effective vs the run against more pass-happy personnel groups.
I think we all know to expect great things from these two pros. Does the community think we’ll see much of our two new rookie safeties this season? Do you look forward to seeing the Broncos extend Jones, or should the Broncos look to the young guns to develop? Hit us up in the comments and let us know what you think.
