The Broncos answered the phone, like they said they would.
The NFL’s trade deadline came and went Tuesday, however, with no actual action.
Denver fielded interest on several players, including wide receiver Jerry Jeudy, sources told The Denver Post, but ultimately general manager George Paton, head coach Sean Payton and company decided to move forward with a group that’s won two straight games to get to 3-5.
That follows with what Payton told reporters when he said the Broncos were not “openly or even remotely shopping anybody.”
“Have people called? Sure the have,” he added.
