Defensive back: All’s well that ends well
Chris Harris Jr. is back, baby.
The Broncos’ secondary is great again.
The team added Kareem Jackson and Bryce Callahan in free agency. The impact of those three moves (Harris, Jackson, Callahan) cannot be overstated.

Those are just the cornerbacks expected to play the most snaps.
Jackson is expected to move around and play both corner and safety, but the Broncos can’t really be stealing too many snaps from Will Parks or Justin Simmons either.
This unit is going to be fantastic and the presence of Harris amplifies the excellence of the group.
