The Facts:
The Broncos made a curious decision Friday when they decided not to take Marshall, their top receiver with them for their preseason game in Seattle tonight. Three other Broncos players — Brian Dawkins, Knowshon Moreno and Brandon Lloyd — also didn't make the trip. However, they were all held back because of injuries. Marshall is healthy.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
According to Post staffer Mike Klis, Marshall's status with the team seemed to change Tuesday afternoon when his agent, Kennard McGuire, met with Broncos management to reiterate a trade request Marshall said he first delivered to owner Pat Bowlen during a face-to-face meeting in June. In the Broncos' practices Sunday and Monday morning, Marshall began the sessions running plays with the second team, but he would occasionally mix in with the No. 1 offense. Following the meeting between McGuire and the Broncos, Marshall spent the rest of the week relegated to the scout team. Marshall said he didn't mind the scout team demotion because he admittedly didn't know the playbook. Is Marshall getting punished? Or are the Broncos contemplating acting upon Marshall's discontent? Stay tuned. It's getting (even) more interesting.
