The Denver Broncos are entering year two of the Sean Payton era and this version of the team will be the most like the one he is hoping to assemble. Last year, he was clearly saddled with a quarterback he didn’t want in Russell Wilson and even made a change at the position in the final two games. Now he has first-round pick Bo Nix and the roster turnover has been significant enough to have us believe Payton is close to having what he wants in that locker room.
Linebacker Jonas Griffith talked about Payton’s changes and leadership last week with The Drive on 104.
