A couple of key contributors on the Denver Broncos’ defensive front are missing from offseason work, including free agent acquisition Clinton McDonald from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
McDonald was a captain with the Buccaneers and is a superstar in the community, and has already been getting involved in that regard with the Denver community.
Unfortunately, he has been unable to get on the field in OTAs and the Broncos must feel like some of his regular season is in jeopardy, because they’ve agreed to a contract restructure with McDonald.
According to ESPN’s Field Yates, McDonald and the Broncos came to an agreement on a contract restructure that will drop his base salary this season from $3 million to $1 million, and his roster bonus will be on a per-game basis.
