Exclusive Interview with 2024 NFL Draft prospect Jordan Magee
I had the opportunity to talk with Jordan Magee, an underrated linebacker prospect, who could be a solid fit for the Denver Broncos.
As the NFL Draft gets closer, the Denver Broncos are having Top 30 visits, and interviews with multiple prospects. One of the prospects the Broncos have had visiting the facilities, is Temple linebacker Jordan Magee.
Heading to #Temple Pro Day in about a hour, I’ll be keeping an eye on two prospects in particular.

Denver's top priority heading into the draft is the quarterback position, but there are other needs, including linebacker. Denver lost Josey Jewell in free agency, who signed with the Carolina Panthers and added Cody Barton on a one-year deal. The linebacker core includes Alex Singleton, Cody Barton, Jonas Griffith, Drew Sanders, and Justin Strnad.
Jordan Magee is a fast linebacker, and a great blitzer, something that can fit perfectly for the Denver Broncos. He could easily be a late-day 2, or day 3 steal for the Broncos if they end up selecting him in April.
During his college career, Magee had the following stats and accolades ...
- 44 games
- 235 tackles
- 139 solo tackles
- 31 tackles for loss
