  • Despite Inexperience, Broncos Confident in Rookie Linebacker Justin Hollins’ Versatility by Ryan O’Halloran Denver Post May 19, 2019
    Despite inexperience, Broncos confident in rookie linebacker Justin Hollins’ versatility By Ryan O’Halloran Denver Post May 19, 2019 He appeared in 52 games for Oregon. He was an outside linebacker, a defensive end, and an outside linebacker again. He played for three head coaches and three defensive coordinators. Justin Hollins saw a lot during his five years on the Ducks’ campus, but not what he experienced during the Broncos’ rookie camp last week. A chance to play inside linebacker. “It was mainly during the (East-West Shrine Game) that I played inside,” Hollins said. And that’s it. Hollins was the Defensive MVP of that game, one reason that the Broncos drafted him in the fifth round last month. He is working at outside linebacker in the Broncos’ base defense and inside linebacker in nickel. Outside, he can serve as a rotational player behind Von Miller and Bradley Chubb. Inside, he could join Todd Davis, Josey Jewell or an extra safety in covering the intermediate-to-deep middle part of the field. So how did this come about? The Broncos credit outside linebackers coach Brandon Staley. “(Staley) came to us with the idea,” defensive coordinator Ed Donatell said. “He thought he (Hollins) could get it done. He’s done a great job getting him ready. … Certainly, he can do both. But he might only do parts of each — maybe one full time and part of the other.” That’s why the Broncos view the experiment of moving Hollins around as reasonable. As Donatell said, they aren’t force-feeding Hollins the entire playbook at multiple positions and he is being taught the roles by the same person (Staley).
