De’Vante Bausby ready to make a splash in 2020
By Tylor Walden
As the Denver Broncos prepare to look ahead to another season, De’Vante Bausby provides some good news that could make the offseason interesting.
The season ended for the Denver Broncos nearly three weeks ago and the team looks to prepare themselves for what should be the most interesting offseason in a long time. You can add a De’Vante Bausby in the mix on what could be an exciting spring and summer.
The former Alliance of American Football standout ended up missing the final three quarters of the 2019 season after he suffered a scary neck injury that left him immobile for a short period of time. He would end up on injured reserve not too long after that.
A lot of fans in Broncos Country always wondered “what-if” in regards to his situation. Sure enough, Bausby made it clear that he intends to return to football in 2020.
This could make things very interesting for the Denver Broncos plans in the secondary. When he spelled Isaac Yiadom during his struggles, Bausby was playing very well. And with the secondary in question, it helps to have this nugget of news.
De’Vante Bausby is a restricted free agent this offseason. Why this becomes something very intriguing is what kind of price tag they place on him. He was a solid player in the little amount of time that he played.
There is uncertainty with Chris Harris Jr.’s future. So, could this be a potential player of interest for the Broncos as they look to get better in the secondary? It will all depend on what kind of tender John Elway and company place on him.
If anything, Bausby could be a great addition as at least a nickel cornerback. I believe he has a strong future with the Denver Broncos. Plus, it would be great to see what he can do as long as he stays healthy. Hopefully Broncos Country sees a little more from him.
