Thank u to everyone for all of the twitter support. Unfortunately my knee just refuses to cooperate at this time.

JoelDreessen @JoelDreessen
The @Broncos have been so good to me. We literally explored every possible option to get me healthy. Thank u. #firstclassorganization

Was such a blessing to come home and be a bronco the past 2 seasons. Everyone was so kind to me, especially the fans and media.

JoelDreessen @JoelDreessen
While disappointed I won't be a part of the 2014 broncos, I am looking forward to watching them. It's going to be a special season.

We all knew this was coming but if he can get the knee right and someone goes down, bam he could be back with us

Good luck to JD and thank you for being an honorable Denver Bronco.

This should bring Denver to 87/90 roster limit for TC

If I'm counting correctly, I think Dreessen's departure brings the roster total for TC to 88 at this time. They have six TEs. :2cents:

P.S. Hagg to reserve/retired makes it 87, I believe.

It's about time they cut him. Paying him a little over 3 mill is ridiculous. We get $660,000 in dead money now but we still saved like 2.5 mill.

I liked him a lot, but this move is understandable. Hopefully his knee gets better and he has success wherever he goes.

Regardless of health player will have that day. Leave can help him protecting his body. Good luck to Joel Dressen and thank you for your endeavor in Broncos. Now we have more cap space.

I wish him all the best. Dressen is truely a class act he will be missed.
