ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- As the Denver Broncos moved through their early work in free agency they signed a quarterback, as expected.
They made some trades, as expected.
And they let several of their own free agents hit the open market to seek financially greener pastures elsewhere, as expected.
But perhaps the one surprise, at least judging from what was said in the weeks immediately following their 5-11 finish last season, is that running back C.J. Anderson remains on the roster. Even Anderson, who had his first career 1,000-yard rushing season in 2017, said he had questions about whether he was part of the Broncos' plan for 2018.
