Cutler, Marshall, Scheffler Continue Atlanta Practices

Jay Cutler, Brandon Marshall, and Tony Scheffler have been practicing in their own workouts in Atlanta since mid-January. Now it appears these workouts will continue through March 24, when the Broncos’ official offseason workout program begins.

Their workouts have focused on speed, strength, and position-specific drills, taking place at Chip Smith’s Competitive Edge Sports athletic performance center in Atlanta, GA (courtesy The Sporting News). The three have also worked on their timing and chemistry for next season, running pass plays in their workouts.

In a recent interview with CBS4 Denver, Marshall talked about the workouts, being a wide receiver in the NFL, and beefing up for next season, among other things. When asked whose idea the Atlanta practices was, he said it was a collective effort, but gave Jay Cutler credit for being the leader and seeing it through.

He and the interviewer talked about Javon Walker at length, and Marshall even went as far as to say that an invitation for Javon was extended. He jokingly told Walker to get his butt over to Atlanta to join them, saying he’d get in touch with Walker again and see if he was interested.

This interview took place during Super Bowl week, and I’ve yet to hear any news of Walker in Atlanta. It seems safe to say that Walker didn’t accept the invitation, another indication that his days as a Bronco are likely numbered.

The Marshall interview is a real gem, definitely give it a spin. Can we get an Atlanta native over to Chip Smith’s on the double?!

I love the attitude, I love the work ethic, and I love the fact that these guys took it upon themselves to work together and build chemistry. These three could be a scary combination in 2008 – look out NFL.
