Jul 08, 2013

Contract negotiations between the Denver Broncos and left tackle Ryan Clady resumed Monday with the team sweetening its offer. An NFL source said the Broncos improved their five-year, $50 million proposal from a year ago.

Clady rejected the Broncos' $10 million a year offer prior to the 2012 training camp and played last season on a $3.5 million salary.

Clady was eligible for free agency this year, but the Broncos greatly restricted his freedom by placing a one-year, $9.823 million franchise tag on the three-time Pro Bowler.

The sides are trying to work out a multiyear contract agreement this week. If a new deal cannot be reached by July 15, Clady would have to play the 2013 season on the one-year, $9.823 million salary.

Kittle returns to a great matchup against a Packers defense that ranks 26th in TE aFPA. He should be fired up as a high-end TE1 once again.

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer

Fantasy Impact:

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
