It’s safe to say that over the last couple of years, Lloyd Cushenberry III has been under heavy scrutiny from Broncos Country. Serving as the center of the award-winning offensive line of the 2019 college national champions, a team many see as the greatest college team of all time, Cushenberry has high expectations after he was drafted in the 3rd round. He has yet to live up to those expectations.
But, over the preseason and the first three games of this year, Cushenberry has quietly been one of the most consistent players on the offensive line. He seemingly has taken the next step in his career and is starting to look like a competent starter.
