Brandon Marshall wants out of Denver

NFL Football at its best. NFL Football at its craziest.
This time we can’t blame Josh McDaniels for someone wanting to leave. Sure, Jay Cutler just wanted out of Denver and did not respond well to McDaniels, but now Brandon Marshall, the All Pro receiver, wants out of Denver and the sticking point appears to be money.
Marshall and his agent, Kennard McGuire, have taken the offensive. McGuire told Fox 31 News that “there was a request for a trade. Mr. Bowlen has said that ownership will do everything in its power to accommodate his wishes.”
However, there is no indication the Broncos will seek to deal Marshall, who is unhappy with his contract that will pay him $2.198 million this season, the final year of his deal.
Jay Cutler wanted out and now so does Brandon Marshall
How typical of pro sports and the selfishness of the athletes involved. They sign a contract and immediately if they do better, they want more. Just once it would be nice to see one of these athletes then turn around and have a bad season and offer the money back or ask for less. OK, maybe just feeling a little upset about this, but it just seems like a contract is not worth the digital paper it is created on.
