Denver continues the big cleaning of spring mid-season, and it’s the defense that is suffering. After sending Randy Gregory to the 49ers for a pittance, another defender with a flashy name, Frank Clark, was fired this Friday according to Adam Shefter (NFL Media).
The 30-year-old defensive end signed a one-year, $5.45 million contract exactly four months ago.
This is no surprise for the player, who had restructured his contract just a few hours ago to allow this operation. He will thus have the opportunity to sign for the team of his choice, even if it is his ex-team Chiefs which seems to hold the rope.
With a record of 1-5 at the end of the sixth week, the sales may not be over in Denver. Indeed, according to current rumors within the league, other players with a certain value such as Courtland Sutton or Jerry Jeudy (WR) could be traded if an interesting offer arrives on the table of George Paton, the General Manager of the Broncos.
