Clinton McDonald, age 31

As if the Broncos didn’t have a plethora of interior pass rushers already, they made signing veteran Clinton McDonald a priority this offseason.

McDonald is known for his ability to get pressure on the quarterback, racking up 19 in his last 16 games, including five last season with the Buccaneers.

McDonald had some very good years with the Seattle Seahawks before leaving for the Buccaneers as a free agent and is also one of the highest character players in the league.

As the team emphasized bringing in players with strong leadership qualities this offseason, McDonald may set the bar the highest.

Leading up to training camp, McDonald is still struggling some to recovery fully from an injury, but the Broncos expect he will be at full health by the start of the season and he will give them even crazier depth on the interior defensive line.
