The Denver Broncos used the 144th pick of the 2016 NFL Draft on guard/center, Connor McGovern, from Iowa. McGovern was allowed to have a “red-shirt” year in 2016 and didn’t start playing for the Broncos until late in the 2017 season. McGovern started five games that season (at guard) and then cemented himself as an integral part of the OL in 2018 starting 15 games at center or guard during the season. There is another Connor McGovern who plays guard in the NFL and is currently a free agent, but this post is focused on the former Bronco McGovern.
