Rape Case Against Broncos DE Gotsis Dropped by DA Reuters Staff 3 M I N R E a D AUGUST 16, 2018 / 12:20 AM Rape case against Broncos DE Gotsis dropped by DA Reuters Staff 3 M I N R E A D Broncos defensive end Adam Gotsis will not be charged in a rape investigation, after the case was dropped by the Fulton County (Ga.) district attorney’s office on Wednesday. Denver Broncos defensive tackle Adam Gotsis (99) stands during the national anthem before the game against the Carolina Panthers in Denver, Colorado, September 8, 2016. Mandatory Credit: Ron Chenoy-USA TODAY Sports Gotsis, who turns 25 next month, was arrested on March 7 and accused of raping a woman five years earlier while he was at Georgia Tech. The case had been under investigation since his arrest, but the DA’s office announced Wednesday that no action will be taken. “After careful and thorough investigation, The Fulton County District Attorney’s Office has decided not to proceed with the case against Mr. Adam Gotsis,” Fulton County District Attorney Paul L. Howard Jr. said in a statement. “My office understands the sensitivity and significance of these investigations, but the evidence presented does not warrant any further action in this case.’’ Gotsis met the media after practice Wednesday for the first time since the news of his arrest emerged. “I’m just relieved that everything’s been taken care of,” he said. “I’ve got faith in the legal system, and I have faith in the lord and family and friends, and great support from everyone around me — Broncos, friends, family. Just glad that it’s over with and I can just focus on football now.” A 30-year-old woman reported to police on Feb. 1 of this year that she was raped by Gotsis on March 9, 2013, when she was 25.” Gotsis surrendered to authorities in March after a warrant was put out for his arrest, and he was released after posting $50,000 bond. Gotsis’ attorney, Sarah Becker, denied the accusation in a statement at the time of her client’s arrest, saying in part, “We steadfastly maintain that the allegations are false.” The team also released a statement at the time saying it took the accusation “very seriously” and had reported it to the NFL, who likely will not investigate the incident under the personal conduct policy because it happened before Gotsis entered the league. Gotsis, a 6-foot-4, 287-pounder who Denver drafted in the second round in 2016, participated fully in the Broncos’ offseason program and training camp, and he played in the team’s first preseason game. He has played in all 32 games since he was drafted, starting 13 last year while totaling 41 tackles, 2.0 sacks and four passes defensed. Born in Melbourne, Australia, Gotsis came to the U.S. to play football at Georgia Tech in 2012, playing for the Yellow Jackets through 2015. —Field Level Media https://www.reuters.com/article/us-football-nfl-den-gotsis/rape-case-against-broncos-de-gotsis- dropped-by-da-idUSKBN1L02D6 .

  • The Following Players Comprise the 2017 Season APBA Pro Football Player Card Set. the Regular Starters at Each Position Are L
    2017 APBA PRO FOOTBALL SET ROSTER The following players comprise the 2017 season APBA Pro Football Player Card Set. The regular starters at each position are listed first and should be used most frequently. Realistic use of the players below will generate statistical results remarkably similar to those from real life. IMPORTANT: When a Red "K" appears in the R-column as the result on any kind of running play from scrimmage or on any return, roll the dice again, refer to the K-column, and use the number there for the result. When a player has a "K" in his R-column, he can never be used for kicking or punting. If the symbol "F-K" or "F-P" appears on a players card, it means that you use the K or P column when he recovers a fumble. Players highlighted in yellow played for two or more teams. They are assigned to the team they last played for in the season.

  • Denver Broncos Executive News Summary Monday, October 8, 2018
    Denver broncos Executive news summary Monday, October 8, 2018 After another smelly loss by Broncos, John Elway needs to ask Gary Kubiak to replace Vance Joseph as coach By Mark Kiszla The Denver Post October 8, 2018 It’s a stench that can’t be washed away in the shower. The Broncos stink to the bone. What’s that putrid odor? Hope dying. Vance Joseph reeks of an NFL coach that can’t do the math and is always late with the answer. Why can’t his boss see it? Can’t John Elway smell it? It’s impossible for the scoreboard to fully capture this mess, although as the New York Jets crushed Denver 34-16 here Sunday, it shouted how rotten this football team is in big, bright lights. “We were once a dominant team. Teams once feared the Broncos. It’s not that way anymore,” linebacker Brandon Marshall said Sunday. Marshall spoke quietly, while deliberately knotting a tie around his neck, after the Jets shredded the reputation of a defense that won Super Bowl 50 with 323 yards rushing. It was the heaviest pounding Denver had taken on the ground in eight seasons. You remember 2010; it was the year Josh McDaniels was fired as coach. With the benefit of time, defeat builds character. In the moments immediately after a humiliating loss, however, what’s revealed is how an athlete deals with emotional pain laid bare. While Marshall picked through the sad reality like a CSI investigator, Denver teammate Derek Wolfe growled like a hurt animal. “I’m tired of talking about the same (bleep) for the last two years,” said Wolfe, who employed a four- letter word not fit for print in a family newspaper.
