Denver Broncos general manager George Paton has seen Cordarrelle Patterson plenty of times when both resided in the NFC North. In fact, Paton was the Minnesota Vikings assistant general manager when Patterson was drafted by the team in 2013.
Patterson left the Vikings after the 2016 season, signing with the Oakland Raiders for a season, the New England Patriots for another year, and most recently the Chicago Bears.
