BRECKENRIDGE, Colo. (AP) -- Denver Broncos director of player personnel Matt Russell apologized Monday for his arrest over the weekend on suspicion of driving under the influence.

The Colorado State Patrol said Russell was arrested Saturday after rear-ending a Breckenridge police officer's SUV that was stopped on the shoulder of Colorado 9. The officer, suspecting Russell was drunk, had pulled over to wait for Russell to pass, troopers said. Russell and the officer were taken to hospitals and released.

Town spokeswoman Brodie Boilard said Russell also was in a minor accident earlier Saturday, and the other driver called police after suspecting Russell was intoxicated.

Russell was arrested on charges of DUI, no proof of insurance, careless driving causing injury, and having an open container after colliding with the officer's vehicle. He was freed on bond Sunday.

2. An Executive for your football team....

The Shame! If the Donko's kept their number one draft choice from a couple of years ago... TeBlow--- perhaps he could have shown him Jesus.

3. That's a top management position with the team.

I think Scott Paoli had that position with the Pats before he became the GM at the Chiefs. This guy can probably kiss his chances for advancement in the NFL goodbye now.

one of his best friends. They went to Hillsdale together.
