Report: Marcell Dareus headed for free agency

According to NFL Insider Ian Rapoport, Marcell Dareus is going to be available very shortly. Broncos’ Country may be pretty familiar with Dareus from the days when there were debates about the number 2 overall pick between him, Von Miller, and Patrick Peterson way back in John Elway’s first draft as General Manager.

Dareus landed on Injured Reserve last season after undergoing a core muscle surgery, but he was a difference maker in 2017 after coming to Jacksonville in a trade from the Buffalo Bills. He is not a premier pass rusher, but is the kind of space eating run defender that could really boost the Broncos’ front 7.
