• Broncos' Cody Barton: Scoop-and-score vs. NOLA

  16D ago • By RotoWire

  Barton logged eight tackles (six solo) and returned a fumble recovery 52 yards for a touchdown during Thursday's 33-10 win over the Saints. Barton logged his first sack of the season midway through the first quarter Thursday when he got to Spencer Rattler for a loss of seven yards. Barton had a 14-yard fumble recovery for a touchdown in the second quarter nullified due to a defensive offside penalty, but he was able to return a fumble for a 52-yard score in the fourth quarter to extend the Broncos' lead to 33-3 at the time. Barton has started at inside linebacker over the last four regular-season games after Alex Singleton underwent season-ending surgery to repair a torn ACL. Over that four-game span, Barton has played every single defensive snap and has accumulated 33 tackles (18 solo), including 1.0 sacks, one pass breakup, one forced fumble and Thursday's fumble recovery for a touchdown.

  Barton recorded eight tackles (one solo) in the Broncos' loss to the Chargers on Sunday. Making his third consecutive start with Alex Singleton (knee, IR) done for the year, Barton played 100 percent of the defensive snaps for the third straight contest. In his three weeks as a starter, Barton has recorded 25 tackles (12 solo) but has done little else in the box score.

  Barton recorded 10 total tackles (four solo) in Sunday's 10-9 win over the Jets. Barton stepped up and filled the role of the injured Alex Singleton (knee) during Sunday's win, posting double-digit stops en route to holding a high-powered Jets offense under 10 points. Without Singleton for the remainder of the year, Barton is expected to be the Broncos' top tackler and could become a valuable IDP piece moving forward.

• Broncos' Cody Barton: Larger role with Singleton hurt

  09/25/2024 • By RotoWire

  Barton is set to take over a three-down role after fellow Broncos linebacker Alex Singleton (knee) suffered a season-ending ACL tear in Sunday's 26-7 win over the Buccaneers. Barton is also expected to take over relaying play calls to the rest of the defense, which was previously part of Singleton's responsibilities. Barton has 13 tackles (five solo) through three games, but he's well positioned to bolster his tackle totals moving forward.

  Barton signed with the Broncos on Friday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports. The 2019 third-round pick out of Utah will be playing for his third team in three years after spending last season in Washington and the prior four seasons with Seattle. Barton missed four games while on IR with an ankle injury and registered 121 tackles (67 solo), one interception and one fumble recovery over 13 games in 2023. He could start alongside Alex Singleton at inside linebacker for the 2024 season, with Drew Sanders being direct competition for that spot.
