The Denver Broncos have released backup quarterback Chad Kelly after his Tuesday arrest on suspicion of criminal trespass.
The 24-year-old Kelly appeared briefly in court Wednesday, and a court date was set for Nov. 8. Kelly has not yet been formally charged. He had posted a $2,500 bond and was released after his arrest Tuesday.
Kelly stopped at the Broncos' complex, which is next door to the courthouse, about 24 minutes before his hearing Wednesday.
"This was a decision that we made as an organization," president of football operations/general manager John Elway said in a statement.
