This has been a difficult season for the Denver Broncos. Good news has been hard to come by, but we all got a little bit when it was announced that Will Parks was rejoining the team. He joined Ryan and Ben on Broncos Country Tonight and talked about his journey back to Denver.
If you are a Broncos fan on social media, then you know how excited Broncos Country is about the return of Parks. His departure was met with well-wishes, and some sadness. We all hoped for the best, but things just didn’t work out in Philadelphia.
After his release, it made sense that the Broncos, having lost Bryce Callahan for the season, would try and bring him back.
In an earlier interview on the show Malike Reed mentioned how important Parks was to the locker room. Parks spoke with Von Miller and Devante Bausby soon after hearing the news. Ed Donatell had been in contact with the safety just prior to being acquired.
It seems like a perfect fit right now. If there is one thing that can be said for a Vic Fangio defense it is that he gets the most out of the players on his roster. This could be a big lift to Parks, who played well in the Broncos scheme in 2019.
While he won’t be able to get on the field in Kansas City against the Chiefs because of COVID protocols, Parks is confident that he can be ready as soon as he is cleared to play. The excitement around his return has been felt throughout Broncos Country. He’s thrilled to be back, and he will be a big part of the defense down the stretch.
