Remember when Doss was the first player in college football to be penalized for targeting? That seems like it was yesterday and now he's playing in SB50.

Playing is an interesting choice of words. Neither player was active for the AFC Championship game. The Broncos clearly see something in both, as they were on the 53 man roster, just not the 45 game day roster. In other words, both were earning NFL salaries and not practice squad salaries.

And that's a very, very good defense that they're on. As far as I know, the inactives are decided on game day, so they'll make the trip and get rings if Denver wins, which is great for them. I'm sure they're learning a lot.
