I will always be a part of the Broncos one way or the other. I have no hard feelings. I get it.” Loved covering him. #Denver7 https://t.co/DmQN6b7xfuHe’ll join a strong list of Ravens newcomers, including defensive end Calais Campbell, as Baltimore’s title chances were convincing enough for Wolfe to leave the Mile High City.
