Defensive Line (7)

Derek Wolfe (DE), Domata Peko (NT), Zach Kerr (DE), Jared Crick, Adam Gotsis, Shelby Harris, Tyrique Jarrett

The only big surprise that I would have at this point is having Shelby Harris on the roster. But I believe he has honestly deserved the chance. He has performed well in the first two preseason games. Having a veteran presence could always help too.

Depending on how Jared Crick’s injury heals, I believe he and Zach Kerr will split time opposite of Derek Wolfe on the defensive end front. Adam Gotsis has done well thus far and could be an interesting option in key situations.

The undrafted free agent out of Pittsburgh edges out Kyle Peko. Tyrique Jarrett could be a solid option and perhaps the nose tackle the Broncos have been looking for.

Kyle Peko will grab one of the ten practice squad spots.
