Barrow suffered a lower leg injury during Sunday's preseason game against the 49ers, the Denver Post reports. | ||||||

Fifth-round pick Lamin Barrow will compete for the Broncos' starting middle linebacker job. | ||||||
The Broncos are giving Barrow an extended look at the MIKE spot after he played mostly weak-side linebacker at LSU. Nate Irving is getting the majority of first-team reps at OTAs and remains atop the depth chart, but is better suited for a rotational role. ESPN's Jeff Legwold believes Barrow "already has the look of a guy who's going to push early and often for playing time." | ||||||
