Broncos 2020 Roster Breakdown: Derrek Tuszka

Each summer, Mile High Huddle goes player by player to break down the Denver Broncos' roster. That’s right, all 90 of them.

We'll scrutinize each player's history, dating back to college, and what they bring to the 2020 Broncos. Next up? Derrek Tuszka, the seventh-round edge rusher.

North Dakota State recruits NFL-caliber talent with good consistency and Tuszka is the latest example of that. Denver needed help at its rush linebacker position so it took a shot on the Tuszka's solid talent.

Tuszka had a good college career as an edge rusher and should be competing for a roster spot since he was drafted. There's a lot of concern about the Broncos' rush linebacker depth right now and we're yet to get any sort of clarity.

Bradley Chubb is coming back from an injury and Von Miller is older and coming off one of the worst seasons of his career. Having those kinds of questions at the top of the depth chart isn’t good, but its worsened with the questions about the depth.

Jeremiah Attaochu looked like capable depth late in the season, but Malik Reed fell off after the preseason pretty much while Justin Hollins is being developed to be a hybrid linebacker but as a rookie last year, he was just alright in his limited action. There are so many questions about the position that Denver had to add someone and Tuszka does give the team a nice piece to compete with Reed and Hollins while adding a different style of play.

What does Tuszka bring to the table? Check out the video above.
