Alexander Johnson may be the Broncos answer at inside linebacker

Life boils down to chances.

When one presents itself, do you take advantage of it or let it pass by?

For Alexander Johnson, it’s been the former — in resounding fashion. The last two weeks, he’s made it clear his spot is in the middle of the Denver Broncos defense. Johnson has seemingly been all over the field and played a big part in the defense’s dominance over that stretch. The latest showing for Johnson: He led Denver with nine tackles, 1.5 sacks, one tackle for loss and two quarterback hits. The result was a 16-0 win over the Tennessee Titans (2-4) and a two-game winning streak that has brought hope back to Broncos Country.
