Vic Fangio s defense last season turned in an admirable effort in the face of catastrophic personnel losses due to the injury bug. The Denver Broncos lost eight-time Pro Bowl edge rusher Von Miller before the season began, and suffered through a litany of injuries both on the defensive line and in the secondary.
The list of names to land on injured reserve last year was a who s who of impact players, from defensive lineman Jurrell Casey, to starting nose tackle Mike Purcell, to top-10 cornerback Bryce Callahan, to even rookies and up-and-comers like Essang Bassey and Kevin Tolliver II.

He’s a workaholic, this George Paton. The Broncos website shadowed Paton on his morning commute to UCHealth Training Center. Paton, an early riser, clocked in to the job at 4:50 a.m.
“I went into Vic (Fangio’s) office last night at 8:45 and he’s watching a college prospect,” Paton said, sounding like a proud co-worker who best relates to the grinders of the football world.
