Adam Caplan of ESPN, citing a league source, is reporting that the Broncos and the Ravens are working on a trade that would send C Gino Gradkowski to Denver.
Gradkowski, 26, is a former fourth round pick of the Ravens back in 2012. He’s in the final year of his four-year, $2.584 million contract and stands to make a base salary of $660,000 for the 2015 season.
According to OverTheCap.com, trading Gradkowski will free up $1,542,000 in available cap space while creating $121,106 in dead money.
Last year, Gradkowski was limited to appearing in just eight games for the Ravens and playing a total of 10 snaps, according to Pro Football Focus.
