Baron Browning, the veteran outside linebacker for the Denver Broncos, has made a conscious decision to stay away from social media, especially during this time of year. As the NFL trade deadline approaches, along with the upcoming Election Day, Browning knows that it's important to maintain a sense of sanity and not get caught up in the noise.
Recently, Browning's name has been mentioned as a potential trade target by various media outlets. This is due to the fact that he is in the final year of his contract and the Broncos may not be able to keep both him and Jonathon Cooper in the long run. However, despite the speculation, Browning is trying not to let it affect him and is focusing on the present.
"I don't like to stress about things that are out of my control," he stated in an interview with The Post. "Worrying about potential trades won't do me any good. I just try to stay in the moment and focus on where I am right now."
Browning, who was drafted by the Broncos in 2021, also expressed his love for the team and his teammates. He mentioned that he would hate to have to move to a different team, but understands that it's a possibility in the NFL. However, he remains hopeful that the trade deadline will come and go without any major changes.
When asked about a potential contract extension, Browning stated that his agent handles those matters and he is solely focused on getting back into his groove after recovering from a foot injury. He suffered the injury early in the season and had to sit out for a few games before returning to the field in Week 7.
Since his return, Browning has been gradually increasing his playing time and is feeling more comfortable with each game. "The first week back was just about getting a feel for the field again," he explained. "But each week, my foot has been feeling better and better."
Meanwhile, quarterback Drew Lock remains sidelined due to an injury, while safety P.J. Locke was the only active player who did not practice on Thursday. However, there were some positive updates as offensive tackle Mike McGlinchey and fullback Mike Burton were limited in practice and safety Delarrin Turner-Yell returned to full participation. Cornerback Pat Surtain and offensive tackle Alex Palczewski also participated fully in practice.
In other news, linebacker Alex Singleton, who recently had ACL surgery, has returned to Denver and was seen watching practice on Thursday. He had the surgery done in Los Angeles and spent the first two weeks of his recovery there before returning to continue his rehab with the team.
