The guys wrap up the show talked about rookies that might make a difference this year for Denver. While there’s a chance Paxton Lynch might make an impact, Mike Klis sees other rookies making an impact first. The first rookie is fullback Andy Janovich. Klis sees him getting a lot of playing time in a Gary Kubiak offense. Another rookie is safety Justin Simmons. Denver does have two starters already at safety but Simmons will serve as depth in a backup role.
