Linebackers

Starters: Bradley Chubb, Von Miller, Alexander Johnson, Todd Davis

Reserves: Malik Reed, Jeremiah Attaachu, Justin Strnad, Joseph Jones, Justin Hollins

Outside looking in: Derrek Tuszka (practice squad), Josh Watson (practice squad), Malik Carney (cut), Josey Jewell (cut)

The four mainstays will remain in Bradley Chubb, Von Miller, Alexander Johnson, and Todd Davis. Malik Reed showed enough last year to earn more snaps.

Jeremiah Attaochu came on late and was a key role player. Justin Strnad offers coverage traits that most of this group lacks and Joseph Jones offers premium special teams play. Justin Hollins will remain based on his skillset and the hope to refine his ability to play all over the field.

Derrek Tuszka will show out well but needs some time in an NFL weight room and can get that while hanging in on the practice squad. Josey Jewell’s limitations outweigh his contributions and will be looking for a new team this year.
