Broncos have released cornerback Ronald Darby, running back Chase Edmonds and center Graham Glasgow, creating roughly $37 million in cap space.
It requires money to spend. In advance of the frenzy, teams create salary cap space, involving business decisions with veteran players. The Broncos began that process on Friday, releasing former No. 1 cornerback Ronald Darby, starting center Graham Glasgow and reserve running back Chase Edmonds.
General Manager George Paton signed Darby to a three-year, $30 million deal with $19.5 million guaranteed to serve as the team's top corner before the 2021 season. Darby brought a Super Bowl ring, valuable experience, but struggled to stay healthy. He played 16 games for the Broncos, posting 67 tackles. Darby, 29, arrived with a goal of making his first Pro Bowl.
Glasgow never reached his potential with the Broncos because of a multitude of issues, missing time with COVID, an irregular heartbeat and broken ankle. He played through injuries, showing toughness, and found his way as the starting center last season. Glasgow signed a four-year, $44 million contract with $26 million guaranteed before the 2022 season. He was tasked with taking over at right guard.
