For a fan of the Denver Broncos, Deflategate has to at least be amusing, to some, energizing. The New England Patriots, long the darling of the NFL and long a thorn in the side of the Broncos, are watching as their reputation crumbles. Many already thought of the Patriots as cheaters following Spygate, now it seems Tom Brady’s personal…...

As you might’ve heard, Gary Kubiak is back in the Mile High City after a 10-year hiatus, and he’s bringing a rather impressive offensive résumé with him. It’s a track record that now includes two full decades as a head coach (2006-13 with the Houston Texans) and offensive coordinator (1995-05 with your Denver Broncos & 2014 with the Baltimore Ravens),…...

ENGLEWOOD, Colo — Antonio “Scooby” Smith is unique in every sense of the word. He opened his first face-to-face press conference with Denver media by saying, “I got stuck all weekend. Nobody gave me the memo not to bring a rear-wheel drive car.” In addition to adjusting to the elevation, the occasional May snowstorm is a possibility as the Front…...

The NFL can be a ruthless business. One day, you’re saved as a team signs you. The next, you’re waived and again only a football fan, not an NFL player. For two young players, that reality is just now setting in. On Monday morning, the Denver Broncos waived offensive lineman Jon Halapio and wide receiver Matt Miller. Halapio, a…...

Injuries are a sad reality in the NFL. The worst injuries are those sustained in practice, preparing for a game with teammates. For rookie tight end Jeff Heuerman, his torn ACL Saturday happened in a non-contact special teams drill when the former Ohio State Buckeye cut on the turf. Players weren’t even wearing helmets at the time, a tough…...

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — There’s only one real headline as the Denver Broncos wrapped up its two-day rookie minicamp, and it’s not that May snow and rain forced them to practice inside both days. 1) Jeff Heuerman suffered a torn ACL: It’s hard to think of a worse way start to a career than the third-round Tight End from Ohio…...

Jeff Heuerman, the Denver Broncos third-round pick in the 2015 Draft, suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee during Saturday’s rookie mini-camp and will miss the entire 2015 season due to the injury. Broncos Head Coach Gary Kubiak said, “I feel terrible for Jeff and this is an unfortunate situation.” He added, “Jeff was going to be a…...

Okay, so he didn’t actually say that but it sure seems like he feels that way. Honestly, Shane Ray is too respectful and well spoken to ever actually say something like that but he should! After the millionth immature marijuana question asked by a group of media who apparently wasn’t looking for an original story, I asked him if he…...

The ink scarcely had dried on draft cards last weekend before the 32 teams and all 256 picks were assigned grades. But, hey, what is there for draftniks to do? Still, even if you look at little askew at these snap judgements – I’m with the majority that believes it takes at least three years before truly accurate draft…...

Another rainy day forced the Broncos and their newest players inside for the opening of rookie mini camp. #Broncos Rookie Mini Camp day 1. Forced inside because of rain pic.twitter.com/8hyzERj0Ar — BSNDenver.com (@BSNDenver) May 8, 2015 27 first and second year players along with 10 tryout hopefuls vying for a roster spot, gathered together for the first time at the…...

During Bears rookie mini-camp on Friday, Chicago Bears offensive coordinator Adam Gase reportedly told Chicago reporter Nate Atkins that Matt Forte’s durability adds an element to his power run game, whereas CJ Anderson “got a little chubby” at times. To put it lightly, I was very surprised. #Bears OC Adam Gase said Matt Forte’s durability adds an element to his power…...

One of the best parts of living in our current time is the ability for professional teams to connect with fans through social media. While it may seem like a slow Thursday during the NFL’s offseason, the Denver Broncos know how to keep their fan base up to date on everything team-related. Today, the Broncos’ newly drafted rookies were…...

Emmanuel Sanders is an extra-special football player. Annually, the NFL has been putting together their Top 100 Players list, polling fellow players as a way to give respect to the greats in the game today. On Wednesday, the first 10 players were announced, from Randall Cobb at No. 100 to Julian Edelman at No. 91. Smack dab in the…...

Deflategate. Spygate. Textgate? The New England Patriots don’t need the word “gate” mixed in to suggest a controversy or scandal; with Bill Belichick as head coach, the mascot “Patriots” has now become synonymous with cheating. On Wednesday, it was found through a report that New England quarterback – the poster child of the NFL – Tom Brady was texting…...

Lorenzo Doss … Darius Kilgo … Trevor Siemian … Taurean Nixon … Josh Furman. Will any of these Denver Broncos draft picks prove to diamonds in the late-round rough? Only time – give ‘em at least three years – will tell of course, but the Broncos have had a history of late-round draft finds: Six-time Pro Bowler Karl Mecklenburg…...

Malik Jackson has been very good in his role for the Broncos the last two years. He is entering a contract season and is very aware of that fact. Jackson wants to prove himself as something more. “That’s always in the back of your mind. It’s a big year for me. It’s my contract year. If I told you…...

The Broncos’ biggest need heading into the NFL Draft last weekend wasn’t addressed in the first round, but it was in the second, fourth and in the signing of four college free agents post-draft. John Elway and Co. understand the importance of depth along the offensive line, an undoubted weak point of the team throughout the Elway – Manning…...

The Broncos have already signed nine college free agents this week but may be looking to add a few more. Congrats to the only RB in #Duke history who has multiple 100-yard bowl games – @jsnead9 is heading to Denver! pic.twitter.com/zRw5txgGSh — Duke Football (@Duke_FB) May 5, 2015   Duke made it sound like the Broncos had signed Snead but that…...

After much speculation that the Broncos would be in the market for a quarterback in the early rounds of last week’s draft, they didn’t pick a signal caller until the seventh round. Many believe this is a vote of confidence in Brock Osweiler as the future quarterback. Osweiler is entering the final year of his rookie deal but Denver…...
