It took a year, but Jared Crick finally followed Gary Kubiak from Houston to Denver when the Broncos signed the defensive end to a two-year contract in April. He reunited with the coach who drafted him, after Kubiak and the Texans picked him in the fourth round in 2012.
Crick went from small-town Cozad High in central Nebraska, where he played football for the Haymakers, to Nebraska, playing for the Cornhuskers.
In 10 games this season Crick has 28 total tackles and two sacks playing opposite Derek Wolfe on the Broncos defensive line.
