Broncos
Former Broncos RB Melvin Gordon thinks that QB Russell Wilson still has an MVP-caliber season left in him after moving on from what he says was a bad situation in Denver last season.
โThe situation wasnโt โ it wasnโt good. It wasnโt good,โ Gordon said, via Pro Football Talk. โBut like I said, I think theyโve got the pieces there now thatโs gonna put him in the best situation. What did he do this year? Itโs on him, but I definitely believe theyโll be a better football team than they were last year.”
Chargers
Chargers HC Brandon Staley is excited about having veteran WR Mike Wiliams with the team in practice this offseason.
โItโs just been special,โ Staley said of having Williams at practice, via ChargersWire.com. โMike [Williams] means so much to our team. Heโs one of the top players Iโve ever coached. I believe that heโs one of the top players in the NFL. Heโs such a big part of what we do and how we do it. Heโs had a fantastic two days out there and heโs ready to have a great training camp.โ
Chiefs
Veteran Chiefs RB Jerick McKinnon said there were other teams interested in him as a free agent, yet he was looking forward to returning to Kansas City.
โThere were a couple of other teams,โ McKinnon told reporters, via ChiefsWire.com. โReally, only one other team and another one was (on the fence).โ
โThis was always somewhere I wanted to be,โ McKinnon continued. โI said that last year. I felt the same way this year. So the whole free agency, trying to get things done and get on the same page is always a process. But fortunately, I was able to come back, and this is where my heart is. Iโm excited to be here again. Last year was a long year. I was fortunate to make it through the whole season, every game. But thatโll definitely take a toll on you. Going into Year 10, (Iโm an) older guy. The good thing about being here, the coaching staff, the medical staff, everybody is on the same page. Coming up with a plan to make sure that Iโm good to go for the season.โ
