Broncos latest news and notes

Broncos | Manuel Ramirez working at center

Denver Broncos OG Louis Vasquez said C Manuel Ramirez has been working at center with the first-team offense during organized team activities because C J.D. Walton (ankle) is rehabbing an injury.

Broncos | Jeremy Beal could earn bigger role on defense

Denver Broncos DE Jeremy Beal could earn a fairly prominent role in the defensive end rotation this season if he has an impressive training camp.

Broncos | Ryan Katz could move up depth chart

Denver Broncos QB Ryan Katz is expected to compete with QB Zac Dysert for the No. 3 quarterback job and could win the job if he has an impressive training camp. Katz could also be added to the practice squad if he does not make the final roster.

Broncos | Ronnie Hillman had hard time keeping on weight

Denver Broncos RB Ronnie Hillman said that last season he dropped to around 180 pounds, while team officials say it was closer to 175. He had weighed 200 pounds at last February's Scouting Combine, but early-season injuries probably played a role in his slow start to last season.

Denver will monitor Hillman's weight this summer, and the back hopes to play 2013 at 195 pounds, which is what he has weighed in as during OTAs. He's adjusted his workouts to try meeting that goal. Hillman has been running with the starters this past week but will have to prove he can by physical enough to challenge for No. 1 back duties.

Broncos | Two gone

The Denver Broncos waived RB Mario Fannin and placed S Blake Gideon on the reserve-retired list.

Chargers latest news and notes

Chargers | Danario Alexander's health helping early workouts

San Diego Chargers WR Danario Alexander looked fluid in making back-shoulder catches in practice Monday, May 20. He claims he's at full speed, a contrast to his injured May practices last year with the St. Louis Rams.

Chargers | Danny Woodhead picking things up

San Diego Chargers RB Danny Woodhead looked comfortable in practice Monday, May 20, seeming to grasp the new system while appearing quick and decisive.

Chargers | Robert Meachem could be trade bait

If San Diego Chargers WR Robert Meachem has a strong preseason, the club could see if there's an active trade market for him. His $6.875 million cap number, however, may make that a difficult task.

Chargers | Max Starks expected to play LT

San Diego Chargers OT Max Starks, who was signed to an undisclosed one-year deal Tuesday, May 21, is likely to become the team's starting left tackle this year. Starks will likely replace OT King Dunlap at the position, with OT D.J. Fluker, the team's first-round pick, starting at right tackle.

Chargers | Sign Max Starks

The San Diego Chargers signed OT Max Starks (Steelers) Tuesday, May 21. Terms of the deal were not disclosed.
