Broncos players not pleased with team's decision to cut Pro Bowl safety

It’s easy to see why this would be a painful one for the Broncos' leading players. Simmons has four second-team All-Pro selections to his name and has been at the core of Denver’s defense for years. The decision to cut him in a salary-cap move is understandable, but no less frustrating.

Ultimately, Simmons is unlikely to be the last veteran to leave in Denver. This is largely down to the fallout from the team’s decision to move on from one regrettable contract.
