Pro Football Talk is reporting that the Broncos are trading for Giants K Brandon McManus, who was going to be placed on waivers later today.
This is clearly an attempt by the Broncos to find a temporary replacement for K Matt Prater, whohas been suspended for the first four games of the season for violating the league’s substance-abuse policy.
We’ve seen a few deal in recent months were a team was about to release a player only for a trade to be consummated a few hours later.
McManus, 23, was battling with veteran K Josh Brown for t a roster spot and actually help up pretty well, so it will be interesting to see how does for the Broncos.
