Editor’s note: First of a series providing a position-by-position review of the Broncos in 2017 and looking ahead as the team enters the offseason. Today: inside linebackers.
The last tackle of a trying season for Todd Davis saved a touchdown.
Davis, an undrafted player out of tiny Sacramento State who was cut four times by New Orleans before being picked up by the Broncos in 2014, was still in the game late in the third quarter against the Chiefs on Dec. 31. By that time many of Denver’s starters had walked off the field for the final time in a forgettable 5-11 season.
