With the No. 152 pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Denver Broncos selected former Texas Longhorns safety Caden Sterns.
Perhaps the most criticized defensive player in some time for the Texas Longhorns, safety Caden Sterns leaves the Forty Acres with hopes of a more successful career at the professional level than in college.
A highly-touted, five-star recruit from Cibolo Steele, Sterns made an immediate impact on the field for Texas as a freshman. Starting in all 13 games as a true freshman for the first time in Texas history since Blake Gideon, Sterns earned first-team All-Big 12 honors along with being named the Big 12 Defensive Freshman of the Year.
