Broncos Briefs: Improved kick, punt coverage a must entering final seven games
Cleveland Browns punter Jamie Gillan #7 finally gets to Denver Broncos wide receiver Diontae Spencer #11 during a return as the Denver Broncos take one the Cleveland Browns at Empower Field at Mile High in Denver, Colorado on Nov. 3, 2019. A needed point of emphasis for the Broncos out of their bye week: Cover kicks and punts better.
The Broncos are last in kickoff coverage (31.5-yard average) and second-to-last in punt coverage (11.7).
Only New Orleans and Washington are 25th or worse in both coverage teams. The Saints are 25th and 30th, respectively and the Redskins are 26th and 29th, respectively.
