AFC Notes: Broncos, Chargers, Raiders

Broncos

  • KUSA’s Mike Klis mentions Broncos sixth-round WR Seth Williams has been impressing the coaching staff so far in OTAs.
  • Wide receiver is the deepest spot on the team right now but Klis says there’s an opportunity in the future with both Tim Patrick and Courtland Sutton on expiring deals. 
  • Broncos OL Lloyd Cushenberry said he wasn’t surprised the Broncos drafted OL Quinn Meinerz: “Expected, just based on how I played last year. I didn’t think much of it, competition is good for everyone. We’re going to push each other, we’re pushing each other already in OTAs.” (Klis)
  • Cushenberry added he needs to improve upon his technique: “It’s the little things. Every week everyone you face is so technically sound. I look forward to getting better at it.” (Troy Renck)
  • LB Josey Jewell said he’s been impressed with the cornerbacks so far: “They’re nothing short of spectacular.” (Ryan O’Halloran)

Chargers

Chargers WR Mike Williams said he’s focusing solely on playing football and not extension talks. 

โ€œIโ€™m just out here practicing,โ€ Williams said, via Pro Football Talk. โ€œPeople upstairs, my agent, everybody else handles that.โ€

โ€œIโ€™m not really focused on that,โ€ Williams added when asked if his agent and Los Angeles were engaged in discussions on a new contract.

Raiders

Raiders CB Tryavon Mullen spoke highly of new DC Gus Bradley and expects him to put guys in a position to succeed this season. 

โ€œHe cares about a lot more than just football, and he wants guys to be a part of each other, be a team, learn together,โ€ Mullen said, via Vinny Bonsignore of the Las Vegas Review Journal. โ€œHeโ€™s going to put us in the best positions, heโ€™s going to give us the best calls. We just got to go out there and play together.โ€
