With the No. 20 Pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, the Denver Broncos have selected former Texas Longhorns defensive back Jahdae Barron. A local product from Austin, Barron has been a leader in the Longhorns' secondary throughout his three years as a starter. Now, he'll join forces with reigning Defensive Player of the Year Patrick Surtain II in Denver.

On Thursday evening, Texas got off to a promising start. Left tackle Kelvin Banks Jr. was taken off the board by the New Orleans Saints with the No. 9 overall pick. At No. 20 overall, the Denver Broncos selected Texas defensive back Jahdae Barron. Wide receiver Matthew Golden landed with the Green Bay Packers at No. 23.

Jahdae Barron, a versatile defensive back for the Longhorns, was picked in the first round and No. 20 overall to the Denver Broncos.
