Potential Free Agent Options At Inside Linebacker
By Cody Roark
NaVarro Bowman, Raiders
NaVarro Bowman is another option for the Denver Broncos. The Broncos had a chance to see NaVarro Bowman in action 3 times in 2017.
First in the Broncos preseason game against the 49ers, where Bowman made his presence felt all over the field. And twice in the regular season where Bowman played for the Oakland Raiders.
Bowman is a candidate that many Broncos fans would love to have on the team because he has aggressive instincts.
He is an anchor in plugging the run up the middle, while having the ability to pursue sideline to sideline on outside tosses or sweeps.
His ability to drop back into coverage and locate threats coming across the middle is one of the best in the National Football League.
In 10 games this year with the Raiders, Bowman accounted for 89 tackles and 1.5 sacks. Pairing him with Brandon Marshall on the inside could be a lethal combination.
