Washington tight end Jordan Reed has missed the entire preseason with a toe injury Ben Bishop Jersey , but he should be on the field when the regular season starts.

Head coach Jay Gruden described Reed as “getting there” and on pace to play on Sunday, September 9 against the Cardinals.

When healthy, the 28-year-old Reed has been one of the best tight ends in the NFL. But Reed has missed 28 games in his five-year NFL career and played in only six games last year, finishing with a career-low 27 catches for 211 yards.

If Reed is healthy this year, he’ll be a good target for quarterback Alex Smith. The two of them have been working together in training camp, and although Reed hasn’t been healthy enough for game action, he’ll be there when the real games start.
John Elway is giving his clearest indication yet that he's going to pursue Kirk Cousins, the prize of this year's free-agent quarterbacks.

"We're going to explore all options in free agency and see where that goes," Elway said Wednesday at the NFL combine. "Obviously we've got the fifth pick in the draft, too. That will all play into it. We'll continue to look at all of the options out there when it comes to quarterback."

The Denver Broncos general manager stressed that he'll look at "anybody that won't be under contract."

With the Washington Redskins moving on to Alex Smith Mark Scheifele Jersey , whom they've agreed to acquire from Kansas City, that group of free agents would include Cousins, who figures to command more than the record $27.5 million that Jimmy Garoppolo will receive in his new deal with the San Francisco 49ers.

Elway said he's confident the team could absorb a big free-agent contract under the salary cap, revealed the Broncos are considering moving Ronald Leary back to left guard and indicated highly paid receivers Demaryius Thomas and Emmanuel Sanders aren't going anywhere.

"Yes, the plan is to have them back," Elway said.

That means, Elway will pick up Thomas' $4 million bonus in March, which will keep the last two years of the wide receiver's contract in place.

"That is the plan, yes."

The returns of tight end Jake Butt and slot receiver Carlos Henderson, who spent their rookie years on IR last season Ray Nitschke Jersey , could help bolster the Broncos' offense, as well.

Elway has been stung by the draft selections of Brock Osweiler and Paxton Lynch, but he hit the jackpot six years ago when he landed Peyton Manning.

The Broncos have missed the playoffs each of the two seasons after Manning retired, including a 5-11 season last year when they cycled through quarterbacks Trevor Siemian, Osweiler and Lynch twice .

Elway said he's eager to see the promising class of college quarterbacks this week that features Baker Mayfield, Josh Allen, Sam Darnold, Josh Rosen, Lamar Jackson and Mason Rudolph.

"There is a possibility of some really good quarterbacks coming out of this draft," Elway said.

Elway got burned two years ago when he moved up to take Lynch with the 26th overall pick only to watch him founder on the sideline most of the past two seasons.

"Believe me David Bakhtiari Jersey , I'm not done swinging and missing," Elway said with a laugh. "Misses don't bother me. We just have to figure out a way to get it right. That is what we are working on."

Even with so much uncertainty at quarterback, Elway has been in a good mood this week.

"If there's any year I wanted to play it was last year, to come back and play as a player and try to get things turned around," Elway said. "Sitting in my chair was a long, long year."

Elway is also a member of the league's competition committee which has been discussing simplifying the catch rule that's become so cumbersome in recent seasons and which commissioner Roger Goodell has put atop his offseason fix-it list.

Elway said the competition committee is making progress in that regard.

"I think it'll be much simpler and I think everyone will understand what a catch is and what it isn't," Elway said. "I think that we're in the process of everything that we covered so far, it's going to be much better."

So, "survive the ground" will soon be out of the NFL's lexicon.

"Yeah, going to the ground Adam Henrique Jersey , that'll be changed," Elway said.

Goodell wanted the league to go back and start from scratch after tweaks to the rule only made it more troublesome.

"Or let's go back to what the old definition of what a catch was, right? Two feet down, control and move and then you've got a catch," Elway said. "That's what it's going to be more like."
