Broncos bring Richie Incognito in for a workout and a visit

The Broncos have admitted their concerns with their running game, and they may be taking a dramatic step in an effort to improve it.

According to Jay Glazer of FOX Sports, the Broncos are bringing free agent guard Richie Incognito for a workout and a visit.

The Broncos have some degree of familiarity with him from coaching him in the Pro Bowl, and this trip is likely about due diligence and seeing what kind of physical shape he’s in.

He’s had a few sniffs from other teams, but hasn’t latched on anywhere after the Dolphins bullying scandal which he was at the center of.

No one has been sufficiently desperate to call him yet, but if there’s a locker room that can withstand it, it’s the one led by quarterback Peyton Manning.

The Broncos would be the type of team he would need to come into... one that already has enough pieces in place so that if he is the same knucklehead, he can be easily cut with no harm.

I've been really impressed with John Elway as an executive. Was never a fan of his as a player but I like a lot of the moves he's made since taking over as President.

As long as Coach Jessup doesnt order a Code Red, Richie would be just fine

Good hope they sign him and he plays Sunday and finally more penalties will be called on the opposing team.

Don't care what anyone says or thinks, I'd grab him in a heartbeat.

The Rams should have given him a look. He won't be a locker room problem from here on out and he had the penalties under control in Miami. I am sure he is better than Joseph, but then again my daughter could block better than he does.

If he is going to succeed (and I don't think he is. You can't fix stupid.) from here on out, it would need to be somewhere where he can get a fresh start. That puts us as #31 on teams he would go to just above Miami.

I think there are only 3 or 4 players he would recognize from the previous organization.
Sadly. I would take him right now over Joseph.
Joseph just doesn't seem to be as strong as he use to be, before the staph infection.

It doesn't have to be the same players to be the same organization. It wouldn't work to have him here, and that's why he wasn't given a look.

I understand where you're coming from.
However, it's not just the players. It's a new GM and coaching staff as well.

I know hes a complete knucklehead, though I did like his tenacity at times. Also, any chance to improve the pass protection to keep our qb off the ground should be considered.

It's not as though he's likely to be asked to come in anyway.

Read Tampa is giving him a look as well.
I totally had a custom Rams hooded sweatshirt made and got Incognito and his number put on the back.
I was so stoked about it. Then he was cut literally a week after it showed up at my place.
So I ordered a similar one with Long and 72 on the back to make up for it.........

I am not going to lie! I know that Incognito has made a lot of silly (nice way of putting it?) mistakes but I sure did like his attitude/nastiness! If you asked me (which, nobody will!) if I wanted an OL like Incognito who you know is going to cost you a penalty or two (hopefully, not to many more than that!) but will be physical and tenacious OR an average lineman who gets beat several times a game I guess I would be very foolish and pick Incognito.

i hope that if they're unwise enough to put him on the team, he duly embarrasses them.

and you know this how?

After what he went through do you think anyone in the Rams locker or any other would let him get out of hand?

Do you think he would risk the humiliation all over again.....or potentially losing millions?

The last thing he wants to do is go through that stuff all over again.
