Like Brooks, when there are superstars named Von Miller and DeMarcus Ware lining up next to you, there’s a strong chance you don’t get all of the hype you deserve.

Trevathan led the Broncos with 129 total tackles last season, more than 40 more than the second-leading tackler, Wesley Woodyard. He’s a sure tackler against the run and excels against the pass, evident by his three picks in 2013. In addition, Trevathan has become of the team’s leaders on that side of the ball.
