69 Deon Hollins, LB

To say Deon Hollins has been having a strong preseason would be an understatement. He’s been among the best league-wide in terms of pass rush productivity:

Hollins has really jumped off the screen at times with his burst at the snap. He’s got great quickness, which isn’t surprising considering he’s a bit undersized for a 3-4 outside linebacker at 230 pounds.

The Broncos would ideally like to stash Hollins on the practice squad, I would think, and this game could confirm those plans. They are probably too deep at the outside linebacker position right now to consider keeping Hollins with the regular season group, but he could be a very interesting player to keep developing on the practice squad.
