JUST IN: Broncos select Oklahoma linebacker Nik Bonitto with No. 64 overall pick in NFL draft

The Broncos opened their NFL draft activity Friday night by staying put at No. 64 and selecting Oklahoma outside linebacker Nik Bonitto.

Bonitto, 22, continues the Broncos’ emphasis on the edge rusher position. They signed Randy Gregory in free agency and have inside linebacker Baron Browning, a 2021 draft pick, working at that spot during the offseason program.“It’s crazy how everything happens,” Bonitto said. “The waiting and getting the call, I couldn’t even hold it back. I can’t wait to get to work.”“They were one of my last visits and just getting the vibe from the staff and all the guys that are upstairs,” he said.

Bonitto finished his Sooners career with 117 tackles and 18.5 sacks in 39 career games. His best season was his final one — third-team All-America honors after making 39 tackles, seven sacks, three fumble recoveries and one forced fumble.“My speed rush, I feel, is one of a kind,” Bonitto said. “I feel I could definitely add and compliment the diff guys in the room and just fit in where I can when it comes to rushing. That’s the goal right there.”This story will be updated.
