The same applies to Brandon Jones, whom the Broncos signed as a free agent from theLocke and Jones will get some help from some younger safeties, such as JL Skinner and Caden Sterns. Skinner, a 2023 sixth-round pick, was considered raw in terms of his development coming out of college, but Locke said the second-year player has made progress.
Sterns, meanwhile, has missed the bulk of the past two seasons because of injuries. The good news is that Sterns has been activated from the physically unable to perform list and started practicing this week. Locke is happy to see Sterns back in action.
