Paul Boyette Jr., DT

The Denver Broncos have been one of the best teams in the NFL over the past few years at developing defensive line talent, so Boyette is entering a great situation.

With the shocking release of Tyrique Jarrett from the team’s practice squad, the need for an additional body on the defensive line came about, and Boyette is an interesting prospect who was productive at Texas despite not being a full-time starter.

Listed at 6-1, 310 pounds, Boyette is a stout, wide-bodied lineman who has some quickness off the ball and can get an interior pass rush for you. Like Shelby Harris before him, Boyette is someone the Broncos may have noticed from his days wearing silver and black…

This could be yet another exciting pickup on the defensive line for the Broncos and a player worthy of monitoring over the course of the offseason.
