Broncos owner Pat Bowlen said in a letter to season ticket holders on Saturday that the organization had no choice but to trade Jay Cutler over his insubordination. "Understand this: it remains about team," Bowlen wrote in the letter. "Our franchise has gone to the Super Bowl six times, with three different coaches and with many different players. It has never been about one player, and it never will be. Coach McDaniels shares this vision, and everyone in the organization -- players, coaches and staff -- must understand and accept this unconditionally. If anyone does not, that person will not be a part of this franchise."
