It looks like the Denver Broncos would like to beef up their defensive line this spring.
D.J. Jones is scheduled to become a free agent next week and even if the Broncos re-sign Jones, Denver doesn't have much depth behind him. If the Broncos don't shore up the position during free agency, they could address it during the NFL draft in April.

Of note, Denver met with Michigan defensive lineman Kenneth Grantat the NFL combine last month, according to the Denver Gazette 's Chris Tomasson . Grant (6-4, 331 pounds) bench-pressed 225 pounds 22 times at the combine.
Grant received third-team Associated Press All-American honors last fall after totaling 32 tackles (6.5 behind the line), five pass breakups and three sacks. Before that, he earned second-team All-Big Ten recognition in 2023 with 29 tackles (five behind the line), six pass breakups and 3.5 sacks.
NFL mock drafts have Grant projected as a mid-to-late first-round prospect . The Broncos hold seven draft picks this year and Grant could be a potential target at pick No. 20.
