When Bryce Callahan aggravated a foot injury during training camp, it opened an opportunity for a number of young cornerbacks. Yiadom, a 2018 third-round pick, bookended the year for the Broncos at the No. 2 corner spot. He started the first three games before being replaced against Green Bay in Week 3, but he returned to the starting lineup for the final five games of the season. Bausby, who joined the Broncos from the Alliance of American Football in April, replaced Yiadom in Green Bay and started in Week 4 and Week 5. He tallied three passes defensed and appeared to have a solid hold on the spot before suffering a season-ending neck injury in Week 5 against the Chargers. From there, Davontae Harris took his turn in the starting lineup. The 2018 fifth-round draft pick started six games in the middle of the season and held his own for a stretch. He struggled in coverage at times against Cleveland in Week 9, but he also combined with Kareem Jackson for a game-winning pass breakup on a fourth down. Harris, whom the Broncos claimed off waivers ahead of Week 1, played just four defensive snaps over the final five weeks of the season as Yiadom regained the starting spot. Duke Dawson Jr., a 2018 second-round pick of the Patriots, rounds out the group of young defensive backs. The Broncos traded for Dawson on the final weekend of the preseason, and Dawson played at least 60 percent of the defensive snaps in six of the Broncos' games. Dawson, who played largely at the nickel corner spot, should benefit from an offseason in Fangio's system. All four players, though, made claims at various points of the season for why they deserve a role in 2020.
