Prior to being cut by the Broncos, Dumervil verbally agreed to a paycut, but failed to fax in a signed copy of the contract before the deadline. Dumervil's new agent tried to get the NFL to accept the verbal agreement as binding, which would have allowed him to remain with the Broncos. Instead, the NFL denied the appeal, so Dumervil is a free agent, and the Broncos have a dead-money cap hit from the previous contract that makes it difficult to sign Dumervil.
