It’s that time of year again.
With NFL free agency now less than a month away, fans can’t help but read into the social media messages of players with uncertain futures.
Last month, Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton shared a message on Instagram that certainly sounded like a goodbye. “I trust my Gods plans over everything including whatever is next for me,” was part of Sutton’s caption. “Just know I gave everything to this team and organization every time I stepped on that field!”
Sutton is under contract for the 2024 season, but the team has listened to trade offers for the receiver over the last two years. Sutton isn’t the only player with an uncertain future in Denver.
Last week, safety P.J. Locke took to Twitter/X to share this message: “Man, I can’t wait to see what GOD has in store for me with the next move! More goals, more achievements, more life! 🙏 #Undeniable #Completion”
Again, it’s hard to not read into the message. The fact that Locke said his next “move” may or may not imply that he expects to move on to another team. Perhaps that’s reading too far into it. Maybe the safety merely meant he’s eager to see whatever happens next, including the possibility of re-signing with the Broncos.
Locke is scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent in March. Denver’s safety depth chart would take a huge hit if he leaves the team.
