Mark Sanchez won’t be the Broncos starting quarterback to open the 2016 season, but he still remains a Broncos quarterback after the cut to 75 players on Tuesday.
The biggest departure in Denver is punter Britton Colquitt, who was cut in favor of rookie Riley Dixon after passing on the chance to take a pay cut. There’s been some talk in Denver about Sanchez being asked to take a pay cut, but it seems likely that the Broncos will continue trying to trade him even if that’s something they’d also be willing to discuss.
While we haven’t heard the full extent of the injury at this point, Vikings quarterback Teddy Bridgewater went down in what sounds like a scary scene at practice Wednesday so that may be another possible landing spot in a deal.
The other Bronco moves on Tuesday involved placing tight end Garrett Graham on injured reserve and waiving wide receiver Bralon Addison and tackle Kyle Roberts.
