Twitter reacts to Broncos releasing OLB Randy Gregory

The Denver Broncos made a surprising decision on Wednesday when they released veteran outside linebacker Randy Gregory, a move that signals they have admitted signing him to a five-year, $70 million deal in 2022 was a mistake.

The move also signals that new head coach Sean Payton is holding the defense accountable for poor performances this season. Gregory is the second defensive starter to be cut this week, joining slot cornerback Essang Bassey.
