Broncos safety Talanoa Hufanga’s ball-machine grind pays off with pair of picks in win over Rams
Safety Talanoa Hufanga shined in Denver's comeback win over the Los Angeles Rams with a pair of picks on Matthew Stafford passes. Hufanga's handiwork included a 66-yard pick-6 in helping the Broncos secure a 30-26 victory. Hufanga's performance earned him AFC defensive player of the week honors on Wednesday. He made strides this season by catching passes out of a ball machine before and after practices. He faces his former team, the San Francisco 49ers, on Sunday.
Hufanga played in 49 games with the 49ers over four seasons after being drafted in the fifth round in 2021.
