The Facts: Per a league source, the Broncos have opted not to apply a restricted free agency tender to Trindon Holliday. It means that he’ll become a free agent on March 11.

Diehards Line: Holliday, listed at 5-5, returned 28 kickoffs in 2013, generating an average of 27.7 yards per attempt in 2013, including a 105-yard touchdown return. He also returned 32 punts, with an average of 8.5 yards and an 81-yard score. He has four total regular-season return touchdowns in his career. Holliday racked up two in the same postseason game in January 2013, with a 90-yard punt return and a 104-yard kickoff return against the Ravens. The minimum tender for a restricted free agent is $1.323 million, guaranteeing a right to match any offer received by the player but no compensation if the offer sheet isn’t matched. The Broncos could still try to re-sign Holliday at a lower amount.
