“No one is as confident as (Evero). Really impressive in the room. Great command and presence and a way about him on the field.”
The Broncos need to stop the run better on early downs, so they signed D.J. Jones from San Francisco. It’s on him and defensive end Dre’Mont Jones to set the tone on defense. And the Broncos needed a better pass-rushing presence, so they signed Randy Gregory from Dallas. It’s on him and Bradley Chubb to close the deal on defense.Despite the struggles of the past six years and many of the same players in place, Evero wanted to have a soft transition.
Said Parker, the only position coach on defense retained by Evero: “The foundation is definitely Vic, but there are a lot of variations of what we want to do, both on a very small and major scale.” What Evero knew at the time of his hiring is he had players to build around. Dre’Mont Jones is in a contract year and had 5 1/2 sacks last year. Chubb is also in a contract year and finally healthy. Safety Justin Simmons is an all-areas-of-the-field playmaker. And cornerback Pat Surtain II should be a breakout player candidate.
Outside linebackers coach Bert Watts: “He’s a true pro. You see it in his preparation and how he carries the meetings. One of the tough things is when you’re working with someone and you’re not sure what’s going to happen. That’s not the case with E. Every day, we’re prepared.”
