0:00 - George Paton spoke last night after all the roster cuts. He was asked if the TE room showed him enough during the preseason, or if he needs to see more.Also, as of right now, the Broncos kept all 3 QBs on their roster. Brett thinks this is pointless.

He said he felt pressure last season to return from a hamstring injury that wasn't fully healed.Also, some people are mad about Cale Makar's monster contract extension because of the price tag.
