Ryan, do you see any of our practice squad players making a big impact in 2020? Linebacker Alexander Johnson was a huge boon for us last year. Do you think a guy like Tre Crawford or Khalfani Muhammad have the skillsets to jump to the next level?

Johnson is a success story for the Broncos’ identify-and-develop perspective — he was on the practice squad briefly in 2018 and ended up starting the final 12 games of 2019.
