Heading into free agency, we expected the Oakland Raiders to spend money. And why not? This is a team that had more than $65 million in cap room and holes to fill. Go get some talent.

The Denver Broncos, faced with the possibility of releasing DeMarcus Ware, have restructured his contract and are keeping the veteran at a lower price as a third-down pass-rusher, a source told ESPN's Jeff Legwold on Saturday.

The 33-year-old Ware, an 11-year veteran, was scheduled to earn a $3 million bonus Sunday and count $11.6 million against the salary cap in 2016. He had 7.5 sacks in his second season with the Broncos and added 3.5 more in the postseason as they went on to win Super Bowl 50.

Ware missed five games last season, twice dealing with a back injury, but still made the Pro Bowl for the ninth time in his career.

He had 10 sacks in 2014 after joining the Broncos on a three-year, $30 million deal following nine seasons with the Dallas Cowboys. He has 134.5 sacks and 35 forced fumbles during his career.

The Broncos used the franchise tag on defensive lineman Von Miller, committing $13.4 million against the cap next season unless they can work out a longer-term deal.

The Associated Press contributed to this report.

The Denver Broncos have acquired quarterback Mark Sanchez from the Philadelphia Eagles for a conditional draft pick, the teams announced.

Broncos general manager John Elway tweeted about the move Friday afternoon.

The draft pick headed to Philadelphia is a seventh-rounder, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter and multiple reports.

With Peyton Manning retiring and Brock Osweiler signing with the Houston Texans this week, the Broncos were left with only Trevor Siemian at quarterback.

Sanchez, 29, appeared in four games for the Eagles in 2015, starting two. He threw for 616 yards, with four touchdowns and four interceptions.

After being a first-round pick for the Jets, earning the nickname "The Sanchize" with trips to the AFC Championship Game in both of his first two seasons, Sanchez injured his throwing shoulder during the 2013 preseason and was replaced by Geno Smith. He signed with the Eagles in 2014 after being released by the Jets.
