The Facts: HC Gary Kubiak has spoken with Manziel as a potential fit for the team's roster down the line, according to two sources connected to the team. But before the Broncos would make any move on Manziel, the sources said, the Broncos want to see how his pending legal issues and potential NFL discipline are resolved.
Diehards Line:
The Dallas police department referred a domestic violence case against Manziel to a grand jury in late February. The grand jury was to consider whether to charge the former Browns QB on allegations that he attacked his ex-girlfriend. But the grand jury ended its term last week without hearing the misdemeanor assault case against Manziel. Regardless if he is charged, the NFL is expected to discipline Manziel, and a suspension is considered likely, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Should the Broncos even decide to move ahead and sign Manziel -- and it could be weeks or months away from happening -- Denver, according to Schefter's sources, would do so with stipulations that would include mandatory counseling and possible clinical work for Manziel. For what it's worth, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport and 9News.com's Mike Klis are both reporting the Broncos source: Broncos have no plans to sign Manziel, with Klis adding it has not even been discussed. So back to the Colin Kaepernick watch.
