Broncos' Roby disputes Witten's talk that he 'quit'

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. - In an already disappointing season, top to bottom, for the Denver Broncos, coach Vance Joseph and cornerback Bradley Roby each responded Wednesday to comments made by ESPN analyst Jason Witten during the broadcast of Monday night's 27-14 loss to the Oakland Raiders.

Witten said Roby should have been pulled from the game in the closing minutes because "you never quit in the NFL." ESPN's Booger McFarland added "that's embarrassing.''

With 2 minutes, 12 seconds remaining in the game, Raiders running back Doug Martin went through the middle of the Broncos defense for a 12-yard gain before he was tackled by defensive lineman Shelby Harris.
