Broncos are likely monitoring Saints’ kicker competition

After the Broncos parted ways with kicker Elliott Fry, coach Sean Payton made it clear that Brett Maher has not already won the kicker job in Denver.

“He’s competing with himself because he’s got 31 other teams,” Payton said on Aug. 15. “There are probably seven teams that have a real kicking battle, so he’s competing with those guys that come out of those clubs.”
