Fangio said in late March that moving Chubb to the same side as Miller was certainly an option for certain packages.
“Sure, that is a possibility,” Fangio said. “Chubb is another guy where my knowledge and background on him is more from last year’s draft than the 2018 season. He was a guy that we were interested in last year in the draft. I did a lot of work on him. I’m excited about coaching him.
“I think he obviously has the ability to play on the edge of our defense, but I will also be interested to see how much we can move him around and if it fits what we want to do in that regard. I think he can.”
Fangio said it’s been difficult to avoid imagining how he can use a pair of players that each recorded at least 12 sacks in 2018. He’ll wait to make any final decisions on his scheme, though, until he can see his new team on the field.
“Yeah, I do get excited about it,” Fangio said. “But until we see them on the field and how 11 all can fit together, anything we might want to draw up, we’ve probably already drawn up in the past. I’m just excited to see them play, and the X’s and O’s will take care of themselves.”
Chubb didn’t set any personal goals on Thursday, but if he can match Mack’s 12.5 sacks, six forced fumbles and one pick-six from 2018, the Broncos should be in position to improve.
“[I’ve] just been putting in the work on the field [and] off the field, when it comes to the mental side of it,” Chubb said. “Just trying to do everything to better myself so I can help better this team.
“I feel like if I have that big jump in Year 2, then we’re going to win more games.”
