The way that McDaniels formulated his deactivation in the Broncos press conference, makes you think the two of them are back to square one.

Given how he might have helped them reach the playoffs, there's a very strong possibility he might not be there next season.

I think he's a very solid receiver, but I'm afraid he is making the most out of his nickname "Baby-TO", so I would rather not have us pick him up.

This is what ESPN Insider had to say dated Jan 1st, 10:21AM

UPDATE: Word came out Friday afternoon that Denver Broncos head coach Josh McDaniel benched Brandon Marshall for Sunday's key game versus the Kansas City Chiefs, but not because of his sore hamstring.

"Our word for the week has been accountability, McDaniel said. "And we're looking to put the 45 guys on the field on Sunday that want to play together, want to help us try to win and qualify for the playoffs ... And anybody that showed any indifference to that, we'll play without them."

UPDATE: ESPN.com's Adam Schefter learned from a Broncos team source friday that Marshall will be available for Sunday's regular season finale, despite a sore hamstring that kept him out of practice Thursday.

Denver still has a slight chance to make the playoffs with a win over Kansas City and a lot of help -- a lot of help.

The CBS affiliate in Denver reported Wednesday that Denver Broncos wide receiver Brandon Marshall sustained an injury to his hamstring during the early portion of practice, and limped from the field afterwards.

Referring to my above post, my how things change from day to day.

Found this on ESPN Home page just now:

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- Just when they finally patched things up, Brandon Marshall and Josh McDaniels are back to square one, and another reconciliation appears farfetched.

McDaniels announced Friday he's benching Marshall, his Pro Bowl wide receiver, for the team's pivotal season finale against Kansas City on Sunday.

"Our word for the week has been accountability. And we're looking to put the 45 guys on the field on Sunday that want to play together, want to help us try to win and qualify for the playoffs," McDaniels said. " ... And anybody that showed any indifference to that, we'll play without them."

Marshall suggested he couldn't have played anyway after pulling his right hamstring at practice this week.

In an extraordinary half-hour at Dove Valley, McDaniels insinuated on the podium that Marshall was exaggerating the extent of his injury and was unaccountable to the team. The Pro Bowl receiver responded from his locker by noting McDaniels never played in the NFL and hinting he might be getting called out by his coach because the Broncos' season is unraveling.

Since a sizzling 6-0 start, the Broncos have gone 2-7.

      We joke about how the NFL has a script for the season. But maybe it's not a joke?

      lol, that second part is quite literally one of the dumbest things ever. Having or not having guaranteed contracts has absolutely nothing to do with how much these billionaires have to pay.  Because there is a hard cap and a minimum cap spend requirement, and teams either use their cap or roll it over to use it all the next year, so the owners have to pay the same amount of money in the end no matter what. Having fully guaranteed contracts in the NFL would only hurt salary cap management, and thus would end up screwing over the team and its fan base when teams kiss on signings as they take up cap room that is needed to improve the roster. Look at the Browns with Watson, they gave him the fully guaranteed deal and all it’s doing is sucking up massive cap space now.  If they hadn’t done that, the owner would still be paying the same amount of money each year as that cap space would still be used elsewhere. If you want to argue for fully guaranteed contracts because the players deserve it, that’s an entirely different argument and a fair one to discuss.  But anyone against fully guaranteed deals isn’t doing it to argue for the billionaire owners.

      NHL Draft 2025

      By Rocky Davis · Posted

      Ryabkin could be the steal of the draft, he was a Top 10 pick heading into last season and had a rough year.  Lots of GMs passed on him because of that and his workouts. Pick has really high upside and Svech should be able to translate Rod tearing his arse a new one for making dumb plays since Svech has had several years of it.  🤣😂
