The Broncos finished atop the AFC West with a 12-4 record and earned a first-round bye in the playoffs.
Barrett tallied two tackles and one special-teams stop in Denver’s three postseason games. On February 7, 2016, Barrett played in Super Bowl 50 but left the game to be evaluated with a concussion. He returned to finish the game and the Broncos defeated the Carolina Panthers by a score of 24–10.

On March 12, 2018, the Broncos placed a second-round restricted free-agent tender on Barrett. On April 23, 2018, he signed his exclusive rights tender. Barrett finished the season with 28 tackles, three sacks, and a pass defended in 13 games. On March 15, 2019, Barrett signed a one-year contract with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
