Josey Jewell

Age: 24

2019 Salary Cap hit: $748K

Years under contract: 3

With his rookie year now under his belt, Josey Jewell will be looking to make a bigger impact in his second year with the Denver Broncos. With 58 tackles recorded in 2018, look for the Iowa linebacker to see added reps due to Brandon Marshall’s departure.

The good thing about Jewell is that he is capable of becoming the inside linebacker that can either stop the run or drop back in coverage, as his college tape has shown.

We did not get to see a lot of Josey Jewell in 2018, but prepare to hear his name called quite a bit in 2019.
