Malcolm Roach loved baseball. Not as much as he loved football. But he was convinced his future was on the diamond — not as a diamond in the rough in the NFL.
“I played first, catcher and third. It sounds crazy, but I was actually better at baseball. I played travel ball and really enjoyed it,” Roach told The Post. “I was a power hitter.”
He still is. He has simply replaced a bat with shoulder pads and a helmet.
Roach is a big reason why the Broncos went from being unable to stop a candidate from running for city council to becoming one of the best rush defenses in the NFL.
