Check out these highlights of new Broncos special teams ace Tycen Anderson
The Broncos are bringing in special teams Tycen Anderson. Check out his highlights!
With the Denver Broncos bringing in former Cincinnati Bengals safety Tycen Anderson on Thursday, the natural question to ask is, What are the Broncos getting? Anderson (6-5, 205 pounds) was a rotational safety and an ace on special teams in four years with the Bengals. Anderson played 382 snaps in the kicking game last fall.
He totaled 23 tackles in 17 games in 2025, playing 64 snaps on defense as a rotational backup safety. As you will see, Anderson is a sure, quick tackler who could track down some of the best return men in the NFL on both kickoffs and punts. Anderson's strength and speed were big in helping him fight through the muddle of special teams.
You can view some of his highlights from his time in Cincinnati below. According to Bengals special teams coordinator Darrin Simmons, Anderson is a versatile player who can play out of his comfort zone. "(Anderson) became one of, if not the most, productive gunners in the league over the course of a couple years, in terms of tackles," said Simmons at February's NFL combine.
Anderson pads safety depth behind starting safeties Brandon Jones and Talanoa Hufanga, and he can help fill the gap left by P. J. Locke's departure on special teams.
