Broncos' defense has quickly turned this weakness into an underrated strength

Much has been made this year about the struggles of the inside linebacker position for the Denver Broncos, and most of it has been warranted. The positional group struggled early on in the absence of Dre Greenlaw, specifically team captain Alex Singleton. Once Greenlaw returned, however, it became incredibly clear that he made the group much better.

As the season has gone on, the play of the Broncos' inside linebackers has gotten significantly better, and much credit should be given to Singleton for improving his play. He currently ranks 35th of 84 registered inside backers by PFF, showing that while he isn't great, he has been serviceable this year and overall not an issue.
