Broncos Insider: Denver looks to defensive end Dre’Mont Jones to play bigger role in run stuffing

Broncos coach Vic Fangio was blunt when asked how defensive end Dre’Mont Jones can play a bigger role in his second pro season.

“Just the ability to play the run in there against the running teams that we’ll see, and especially the one we open up with in Tennessee, which runs the ball extremely well and (is) strong and powerful,” Fangio said. “He’s got to be able to show that he can hang in there with it.”

The Titans ranked third in rushing yards per game last year (138.9) and Derrick Henry led the NFL with 1,540 yards.
