John Elway is entering the final year of his contract with the Denver Broncos, but he's confident that a new deal will be signed before the start of the 2017 season.

Elway insists that there are no issues in negotiations to remain Denver's general manager and executive vice president of football operations.

"We're continuing to work at it. I don't see any problems with that. I look forward to being here with the Broncos for a long time," Elway said.

Elway added, "I don't think there will be any doubt" that the deal will get done by the time the Broncos begin the season Sept. 11 against the Los Angeles Chargers.

The Denver Broncos are planning for a committee approach at running back this season.

However, Jamaal Charles doesn't appear to be a lock to make the team's roster.

Mike Klis of KUSA puts Charles' odds of doing so at only 50-50. He has missed 24 games over the last two seasons and he only carries a minimum salary.

Jamaal Charles and the Denver Broncos have agreed to terms on a contract.

Charles had spent his entire career with the Kansas City Chiefs but has recently dealt with a series of injuries.

Jamaal Charles will meet with the Denver Broncos on Tuesday.

Charles is a free agent after spending his entire career with the Kansas City Chiefs.

Charles had arthroscopic surgery on both knees last season, which prompted the move to injured reserve. The Chiefs could have activated Charles and moved him to the active roster for their final regular-season game, but they chose not to.
