Leading up to the NFL trade deadline (Nov. 5), the Denver Broncos have a pair of quality backup quarterbacks on their roster and a surplus of pass rushers.
With extra depth at certain positions, will the Broncos consider trading away players ahead of the deadline?
“That’s a great question,” coach Sean Payton said Wednesday. “There’s so much attention obviously that gets focused around the trade deadline. I think any [general manager] — everyone’s picking the phone up. There are discussions and yet any decision or move that a team would make — not just us — would be with the best interest of the team that’s making the deal, acquiring or trading.
“I’ve said this before, George [Paton] will come into my office three times a day, and twice we might talk about something else and then once… Or I’ll be down in his office talking. It’s that time of the year where you can get an early feel of some… Remember there’s a trade, and then there’s the contract involved in the trade which is the devil in the details with any player. Our focus is on this football team right here.”
In addition to quarterbacks Zach Wilson and Jarrett Stidham, outside linebacker Baron Browning is another player to keep an eye on leading up to the deadline. We will track any potential trades on Broncos Wire.
