Strong safety John Lynch is still not 100 percent sure he will be back with the Broncos in 2008, as he is still mulling his future. Lynch said on FSN’s Pro Football Preview Show Friday that he is still looking at the pros and cons of coming back or retiring. The 36-year-old is believed to [...]

Two Broncos have a date with the judge today.  3rd string QB Daryl Hackney will be in court this morning on a drunk driving charge, while tight end Daniel Graham will face charges in regards to an incident which involved breaking and entering.

Broncos offensive coordinator Mike Heimerdinger left yesterday, to take the same job with the Titans.  The move came only a day after Denver granted permission for Heimerdinger to talk with Tennessee.  The Broncos have approached to former UCLA head coach Karl Dorrell about replacing Heimerdinger, but didn’t announce any immediate moves.

A year after a neck injury apparently ended his career, former Broncos linebacker Al Wilson is ready to play football again.  Los Angeles doctor Robert Watkins has been monitoring Wilson’s damaged vertebrae, and gave him the go-ahead yesterday.  The Broncos released Wilson last April, so he can sign with any team as a free agent.  [...]
