Broncos to cut guard Vasquez

The Denver Broncos have released guard Louis Vasquez, the team announced Tuesday.

The move will help the team save cap space, as Vasquez was due to earn $6.75 million in 2016.

Vasuez struggled to adapt to head coach Gary Kubiak's scheme, and will likely seek out a team that runs with a more conventional power approach.

With Vasquez's release, offensive line becomes an even bigger area of need for the Super Bowl champions.
