In order to work toward reducing the roster size from 90 to 80 players by the August 31 deadline, the Broncos released seven players on Monday.

Broncos head coach John Fox on the cuts:

“It’s never easy. It’s just like firing somebody at your job; it’s never easy, because you’re telling a guy he’s no longer with you. You get close to guys; we spend a lot of time together. I haven’t had a chance to spend as much time with this team as I will in the future, but it’s never easy. It’s the hardest part of this job.”
