The Denver Broncos have engaged in trade talks to send Aqib Talib to the San Francisco 49ers, according to ESPN's Dianna Russini. But the talks have stalled as Talib wants to be released, so he can chose where he plays next year. His former employer, the New England Patriots, are his top choice, if he gets released.
Talib played for the Patriots in 2012 and 2013. He joined the team by trade after getting a four-game suspension, which he served before taking the field for the Patriots. For now, Talib is on the fifth yeay of a six-year, $57 million contract with the Broncos.
The 32-year-old cornerback is a five-time Pro Bowler and a one-time Super Bowl champion.
