From Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer:

CLEVELAND -- Browns head coach Eric Mangini denied Thursday night that the Browns were involved in three-way trade talks that would've sent quarterback Brady Quinn to Denver.

The deal, originally reported in the Washington Examiner, involved the Broncos, Redskins and Browns, was close to happening at one point during the day, the source said. Disgruntled Broncos quarterback Jay Cutler, who ended up being traded to Chicago, told a CBS affiliate in Denver Thursday afternoon that he was headed to Washington.

Late Thursday night, Mangini -- through team spokesman Neal Gulkis -- said the report was wrong.

According to the source, the Broncos were not enamored with Redskins starting quarterback Jason Campbell.

Messages seeking comment from Quinn and his agent Tom Condon were not immediately returned. Other teams trying to land Cutler were Tampa Bay and the New York Jets.

Pretty convenient that he makes this denial after the Bears had Cutler.

Where was this denial in March?

There was no other reason to have Favre come to training camp?

He never denied that there were TWO WAY trade talks.
