Denver Broncos cornerback Bryce Callahan is making progress in his recovery from a foot injury. During his media availability at the NFL combine earlier this week, Broncos coach Vic Fangio gave a brief update on the defensive back’s status.
“I just saw him the other day,” Fangio said Tuesday. “He says he’s doing much better compared to last year at this time . . . . He told me the other day that he feels a lot better — whatever day that was, February 18 or 19 — than he did last year on the same day.”
Denver is hopeful that Callahan will be healthy for the 2020 season but regardless of his status, the Broncos will address the cornerback position.
“I think we have to get better there,” general manager John Elway said Tuesday. “That’s one area we’re looking to get better. I think we got better as time went on. We had some young guys. We had some injuries there.
“Bryce didn’t play last year. We had relied on him. Chris [Harris] had to stay outside a lot more because Kareem [Jackson] played safety. That’s an area that we’re looking to hopefully get better this offseason.”
Broncos fans should expect the team to bring in multiple cornerbacks this offseason, either through free agency, the draft or both.
