While Derek Wolfe remains a fan favorite in Broncos Country, the defensive lineman struggled with injuries in 2017. It looked like his career might have been over, but those fears seem to have subsided. Defensive coordinator Joe Woods informed MHR’s Jeff Essary that things were looking up for Wolfe while the Broncos were at the Senior Bowl.
With an injury shortened season, Wolfe didn’t grade out as highly as he would have liked. However, with his neck issues figured out, perhaps there will be a turnaround in 2018.
