ANALYSIS
Austin's addition to the Broncos secondary comes after a three-day audition during the team's recent minicamp. The Rutgers product appeared in 11 games for the Seahawks last season and recorded 10 tackles (eight solo). Austin will likely provide depth at corner for the Broncos in 2022.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2021
2020
Austin's a physical cornerback who struggles in coverage. He started 10 of 11 games last season for the Jets, racking up 63 tackles and four passes defensed. The 2019 sixth-rounder could retain a starting role due to a lack of appealing cornerback alternatives, but Austin will need to develop considerably to become even an average starter at the position.
Austin became a starting cornerback for the Jets in the second half of last season after battling a knee injury to begin his rookie campaign. The Rutgers product will be in the mix for a starting spot in 2020, but he's no guarantee to win it given his lack of draft pedigree (sixth round) and small sample of NFL experience.
