Shaquil Barrett expects bigger, better things of himself
As he prepares for extensive work with Shane Ray sidelined, Barrett can lean on his success in 2015 when he filled in for DeMarcus Ware.
ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- Shaquil Barett knows how to relieve the pressure on Von Miller. He knows the drill because he did so successfully in 2015.
That season, Barrett notched 4.5 sacks during the eight games he filled in for DeMarcus Ware. That half-season of work included six starts and two other games where he stepped in for the now-retired Ware because of injuries. He added another sack off the bench against Detroit in Week 3 that year to reach his career-high tally of 5.5.
