Broncos continuing stance on Marshall
Quote:
Bill Williamson of ESPN.com reports the Brandon Marshall saga has been quiet since he requested a trade nearly two weeks ago.
Expect the quiet to continue.
I talked to some people close to the situation Monday, and they said the Broncos will maintain their stance of keeping Marshall. The team still expects Marshall to show up for training camp.
The team still has no plans to trade Marshall. Denver's brass isn't fretting about the Marshall situation. The front office is on vacation and when the team reports to camp in late July, there is hope the Pro Bowl receiver will show. If he doesn't report for the beginning of camp, the team still expects Marshall to eventually show up.
The Broncos know they hold all the cards. If Marshall doesn't show up in 2009, he won't be paid. A prospective free agent in 2010, there is little chance Marshall will risk missing an entire season.
The Broncos know players around the league can become unhappy about their contracts routinely. Still, usually nothing happens besides the players moving on and playing. The Broncos expect that to be the case for Marshall.
