Dre’Mont Jones

The Denver Broncos have very high hopes for Dre’Mont Jones going forward after his 2019 rookie campaign.

In addition to picking off a Philip Rivers pass, Dre’Mont Jones won AFC Defensive Player of the Week for his performance against the Detroit Lions in week 16.

Jones had 3.5 sacks, an interception, a couple of batted passes, a blocked field goal, and three tackles for loss in his rookie season.

He didn’t see a ton of snaps his rookie year, but Jones is expected to be a much more integral part of the Broncos’ defensive line this season and should be considered a breakout candidate.
