ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — Increased competition doesn't deter David Bruton Jr. Coming up on his seventh NFL season, he said he's pretty much seen or heard it all, from safeties drafted to talk of moving corners over. In spite of all that commotion, he's persisted through the years to maintain a foothold on the active roster.
When the Broncos drafted two safeties in Bruton's third year, he figured he was done.
"I could’ve sworn I was out the door then," he said at media availability on Wednesday. "And then every year we’ve moved a corner to safety, whether it’s Omar [Bolden] or talks of Kayvon [Webster] or [Bradley] Roby or whomever they’re thinking about moving out there from corner to safety.
