First reported by NFL Network reporter Mike Garafolo, the Broncos are set to release the sixth-year NFL running back. The Broncos are releasing RB C.J. Anderson, source says. — Mike Garafolo (@MikeGarafolo) April 16, 2018 […]
Colorado Rockies All-Star third baseman Nolan Arenado has been suspended five games for his role in a bench-clearing brawl with the San Diego Padres on Wednesday, the team announced Friday afternoon. Arenado was among five ejected from Wednesday’s contest at Coors Field for charging the mount and fighting after being thrown at by Padres pitcher […]
Amid the speculation about who the Denver Broncos will select with the No. 5 pick in this year’s NFL Draft — or if they’ll move up to grab someone they highly covet — Alfred Williams said the feeling he gets out of Dove Valley is the club will trade down. On Thursday, the co-host of […]

Lamar Jackson 4. Mason Rudolph 5. Baker Mayfield 6. Logan Woodside 7. Josh Allen 8. Kyle Lauletta 9. Chase Litton 10. […]
Boy, it’s been a long time coming. For the first time in the past four years — and, even more depressing, only the third time in the past decade — the Colorado Avalanche will compete in the playoffs. It’s been a remarkable turnaround season, improving from 48 points in 2016-17 to 95 this year. How […]
The first game of Case Keenum’s tenure with the Denver Broncos will be against his former squad, the Minnesota Vikings, and the quarterback most compared him against in free agency, Kirk Cousins. Denver will host Minnesota in Week 1 of the preseason (Aug. 9-12), followed by the Chicago Bears in Week 2 (Aug. 16-19), before […]
Put at least two former Denver Broncos quarterbacks in Case Keenum’s corner. Griese — who joined “Schlereth and Evans” ahead of his keynote speech at the Denver Area Council’s annual Boy Scouts Sports Breakfast — said you hope to see a quarterback, with a “requisite skillset” and a “certain amount of experience,” put it all […]
In the face of adversity, and in the shadow of Mark Schlereth’s impressive 26 reps, “Stokley and Zach” co-host Zach Bye bravely attempts 225 pounds on the bench press.
With the Colorado Rockies coming off its first postseason in nearly a decade last fall, the Colorado Avalanche sealing a playoff berth on Sunday, and the Denver Nuggets one win this week away from doing the same, the Denver Broncos take up the rear among the four major professional teams in the area in terms […]
During John Elway’s stints with the Denver Broncos — as a player, from 1983 to 1998, and an executive since 2011 — the club has not finished three consecutive seasons without a postseason berth. Twice (1994-95 as a player and the past two seasons as general manager) has Elway-led teams missed the playoffs two consecutive […]
Rockies veteran outfielder Carlos Gonzalez told “Stokley and Zach” co-host Brandon Stokley on Friday that the club has “unfinished business” after a one-and-done playoff run a year ago.
When I first heard about the Charlie Blackmon deal, it felt like it came out of nowhere. But the more I think about it, the more it made sense. First of all, how refreshing is it to see a player basically come out and say, “I ‘m happy here. I’m not looking to leave.” Blackmon […]
Reports Wednesday night indicated recently released Oakland Raiders punter Marquette King had the Denver Broncos “high on his list” of landing spots and would “love” an opportunity to visit the club. Less than 24 hours later, it looks as if the feeling is mutual. The Broncos and King agreed to terms on a three-year contract […]

Apparently recently released punter Marquette King wants a shot to boom kick at elevation more than just the one time the Oakland Raiders play the Denver Broncos each year. King, who was released by Oakland last week, has talked with the Broncos to express his interest in punting in the Mile High City, according to […]
With the departure of Aqib Talib this offseason and T.J. Ward’s at the end of training camp last season, the end of the “No Fly Zone” for the Denver Broncos seems imminent. Since the arrival of Ward and Talib in free agency and Bradley Roby through the draft in 2014 — along with Darian Stewart’s […]
A major piece of the Colorado Rockies lineup will remain at 20th and Blake for the foreseeable future, as the club announced Wednesday that it had agreed to a six-year contract with outfielder Charlie Blackmon. The deal includes two player options, the Rockies said, which could keep him in purple pinstripes until 2023. Blackmon’s new […]
I’m worried about how so many Denver Bronco fans and media view the quarterback position and this upcoming draft. There is an air of panic and desperation I find very unbecoming of Broncos Country. Where did this come from? Why is there a growing movement to take a quarterback, any quarterback at No. 5, just […]
On Tuesday, “Schlereth and Evans” co-host Mark Schlereth made the analogy of new Denver Broncos starter Case Keenum as what he called a “spring break quarterback.” In the analogy, Schlereth said if you have a memorable spring break with your buddies in college, you’re likely going to return there for years to come “If spring […]
