Earlier this month, new Broncos cornerback A.J. Bouye spoke with SiriusXM NFL Radio’s Bruce Murray and Brady Quinn about being traded from the Jaguars to Denver at the start of NFL free agency.
“It was definitely something that I wanted,” Bouye told Murray and Quinn during a July 1 interview. “I couldn’t control where I really wanted to go but Denver was one of the teams I definitely wanted to go to [after] seeing what they had — how they finished strong last year. When my agent told me, I was definitely excited.”
Bouye also said he is excited to face Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes twice a year.
“To be the best you have to try to beat the best,” the 28-year-old cornerback said. “We know what he brings to the table . . . . It’s going to be a strong division and I’m definitely looking forward to it because it’s only going to make me better.”
The Broncos will host Kansas City in Week 7 and travel to face the Chiefs on the road in Week 13 this year (view the team’s complete schedule here).
