Broncos exhausted at cornerback to a point Vic Fangio has never seen

The Broncos secondary is limping in today’s game against the Bills.

Over the past three weeks, the Broncos have lost cornerback Bryce Callahan, cornerback Essang Bassey, cornerback Duke Dawson and cornerback Kevin Toliver II to late-season injuries, and lost cornerback AJ Bouye to a six-game suspension.

Nate Hairston, who has just arrived from the Ravens ‘training squad, is now set to start alongside rookie Michael Ojemudia, and De’Vante Bausby, who arrived last month after the Cardinals’ waivers, will be the third corner half. Safety Will Parks will serve as a nickel wedge. Broncos coach Vic Fangio says he’s never seen anything like it.

“No, I’ve never been in this situation before – and when you say three corners, the third [Hairston] just arrived, ”Fangio said. “So there is a lot to learn and a lot to do. [I’ve] never been in this situation before. Hopefully Michael and ‘Baus and Will as nickel can stand and play the whole game and we won’t have to find out.

Fangio will do what he can with the hand that was dealt to him, but expect Bills quarterback Josh Allen to have a really big day today.
