Denver Broncos blog, news and rumors

Keeping up with Ebenezer Ekuban these days is tricky. Adam Schefter of the NFL Network reported that the Denver Broncos had come to an agreement with Ekuban for a one-year deal.

Scroll down the blog for last night’s news… we stayed up late so you didn’t have to. Big news from John Engelberger, Ebenezer Ekuban, not as big news from John Lynch, Jason Elam, and then some could-have-been Broncos including Jonathan Vilma and Shaun Rogers made some noise. Domonique Foxworth may not be going anywhere after […]

Three way trade rumor – Jets send Dewayne Robertson to Denver; Lions send Shaun Rogers to New York; we send Detroit Domonique Foxworth and a draft pick (likely second round).  [PFT Rumor Mill] The Broncos are expected to take a different, less flashy approach to free agency this time around.  [Colorado Springs Gazette] That being […]
