How is it a sign of disrespect? Players get traded all the time - good and bad. The Broncos got the most they could for him.
It’s the way they did it.
One article I read this morning said that all the pictures of Tebow that were at the Headquarters had been removed. They just tossed him aside like he was nothing, with no acknowledgement of what he meant to the fans last year. Elway’s gushing all over Manning, but I haven’t heard one word from him about Tebow.
Manning was gracious enough to say some kind words, but not Elway.
