There were questions to be had regarding Denver’s future at safety heading into the 2024 NFL Season; in Week 3, Brandon Jones allowed Tampa Bay’s muted crowd to provide the answers for him. Seemingly caught in a defensive back’s nightmare scenario with both of the Buccaneers’ Pro Bowl receivers aligned on the same side, Jones trusts his instincts, soaring through the skies for an early-game interception before hustling into a 37-yard return. Unfinished, Jones offers a late-game encore, sequencing his teammates’ forced fumble with a recovery, ultimately using a running start to engineer a 34-yard return to midfield. A busy man during the Broncos’ 26-7 win on Sept. 22, 2024, Jones recorded six tackles (four solo), one fumble recovery, one interception, and a 32.6 passer rating allowed (on six targets).
