Broncos Start Trimming the Fat

The Broncos new General Manager, Brian "The X Man" Xanders, started his new job by cutting a half a dozen Broncos. The cuts are DLs Dewayne Robertson and John Engelberger, LBs Jamie Winborn and Niko Koutouvides, TE Nate Jackson, and SS Marquand Manuel. Nate Jackson and Engelberger were Shanahan favorites and it was astonishing that they would make the final 53 man roster the last few years. Players like Koutouvides, Robertson, Manuel and Winborn were all Shanahan personnel moves and none of them worked out at all.
