Broncos Lose Greenlaw, Seek Linebacker Reinforcements

On April 2nd, the Denver Broncos locked down a bunch of their core players this off-season,

but they had to let go of Linebacker Dre Greenlaw despite his fire on the field.

Greenlaw, with his history of injuries, quickly signed back with the San Francisco 49ers, leaving

a gap in the Broncos Linebacker room.

They did bring back Alex Singleton and Justin Shronat on New Deal's, giving some stability

at inside Linebacker.

Still, Shronat has never been a full-time starter, and the depth feels shaky if injuries hit.

Fans are split on the move, some get the injury risks and support cutting ties, while

others one are one more shot for Greenlaw's passion.

Even coach Sean Payton called it a tough call, saying he hates losing competitors like

that.

Looking ahead, the team might shift Jonah Ellis inside or count on Drew Sanders to step

up, but that leaves them thin fast.

Officials know they need more bodies there.

With the decision in the books, Broncos brass better scout a veteran-free agent or

grabbed talent in the second day of the draft to shore up that.
