Denver Broncos linebacker Drew Sanders is poised for a pivotal role as an inside linebacker this season, as confirmed by head coach Sean Payton. Despite previous considerations of shifting him to outside linebacker, Sanders has found success in his current position. He demonstrated his potential as a pressure player, racking up a sack during the last four games of the prior season. Standing at 6-5 and weighing 233 pounds, Sanders is expected to flourish as he continues to develop in the Broncos' defense.

Payton reiterated his confidence in Sanders during recent organized team activities, emphasizing their vision for him in this crucial role. With a healthy offseason behind him, Sanders is ready to embrace the challenges ahead, aiming to solidify his status as a key contributor to the Broncos' defensive strategies.
