Broncos Shake Up Linebacker Spots, Sanders Fights for Future

Denver Broncos Shake Up Linebacker Spots: Jonah Elliss Moves Inside, Drew Sanders Returns to Outside

The Denver Broncos are making changes to their linebacker positions this offseason. Jonah Elliss, who previously played outside linebacker, will now move inside starting next year. Meanwhile, Drew Sanders is switching back to outside linebacker. This role swap was first hinted at by coach Sean Payton at the NFL league meetings last month.

Sanders, a third-round pick from 2023, has struggled with injuries throughout his career, including a foot issue that kept him out of more games than he played. Despite his versatility, he has only suited up for 21 games over three years, logging 32 tackles and one sack.

As Sanders enters the final year of his rookie deal, this summer is crucial for him to prove his worth and secure a long-term spot with the Broncos.
