Amalie Benjamin The Boston Globe October 4, 2012

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — The anxiety was high. The Broncos were in the process of trying to make a move that would alter their team, their culture, their ability to compete at the top of the . Days were ticking away, and Peyton Manning was dangling.

There was misinformation and confusion and nervous energy. There were questions inside the organization and out.

Not, though, from John Elway.

“Just the coolness and the calm, collected nature that he had through that, I think it showed real leadership and real stability,” said Broncos president Joe Ellis. “The rest of us were on pins and needles. Obviously, when you have the opportunity to get a player of that magnitude, it’s exciting. You want it to happen as soon as it can.

“But John kept his cool, kept everybody calm and level throughout the process.”

This would be a signature move, a move that ended the Tim Tebow era in Denver and began the Manning era. It harkened back to Elway’s days on the football field, his gunslinger reputation, his fortitude in big moments.

And though others in the organization caution that he’s not that way in the front office, that he’s more calculated than anything, Elway isn’t entirely sure he agrees.

Brought in as the Broncos’ executive vice president of football operations in January 2011, the former Denver quarterback sees that in himself in some ways, in some situations, in places where others might take the safer path.

“I think that you have to take some chances to be great at whatever you do,” Elway said. “I think you always have to take some chances, at times maybe stick your neck out there.

“But you also have to stick with what you believe in and believe that that’s the right direction. If you look at people that have been great at whatever occupation that they’re in, I think they’re all risk takers to a certain extent.”

Learning by doing

The point is to win. That’s the point for any executive, of any team. But Elway knows better than most what it means to win a Super Bowl in this city.

He is not the first legendary player to take on a front-office role. There are mixed results, from the success of with the Ravens to the failure of Michael Jordan with the Wizards, from Isiah Thomas to Larry Bird.

“The overall broad depth of knowledge and skill set was fully developed and it was a natural progression for him,” Ellis said. “He was willing to work. He was willing to put in the hours and put in the time and put himself on the line with big decisions, and not be scared to do that and not worry about the effect it might have on his life.

“It’s a full-time job, and it comes with pressure and expectations. And he’s not in any way, shape, or form afraid of it.”

Perhaps because he’s done it before, though certainly on a lower level. He spent eight years as the owner and CEO of the Colorado Crush, an Arena Football League franchise that won a championship on his watch. He has business experience and a business degree from Stanford, though there was wariness from outside the organization about his credentials, at least when he was hired.

He continues to learn, to pay attention to those in the organization with more experience. From all accounts, Elway does not rely on his bold-faced name, his Hall of Fame stature.

“He’s a real good listener; he’s one of the group,” Ellis said. “He’s not trying to overshadow anyone or be overbearing because of his presence and his personality and who he is. He’s a team player inside this building and, from that, I think comes a willingness to learn and listen.”

He knows, in effect, what he doesn’t know.

“I’ve been in football my whole life; my dad was a coach,” Elway said. “So obviously I have my own views on different things. But there’s so much more to it, especially in this position, to be able to watch and see how other people operate.”

Taking charge

There already have been signature moves. Not only did Elway convince Manning to take up residence with the Broncos, but he re-signed Champ Bailey to a contract with a bit of hometown discount, an outcome that was far from a foregone conclusion. Elway’s presence mattered in that signing, as it has in so many of the football moves over the last two years.

“With his track record, anything he touches seems like it succeeds,” Bailey said. “It was no question that I wanted to be here when he took over because I know what type of winner he is.”

Bailey wanted to be part of that. Manning wanted to be part of that.

And so the Broncos have gotten what they dreamed of from Elway. They got an executive who inspires his players, who makes players want to play for him and for his team.

He brings, as Ellis said, “leadership at the very top. I think that that was something we were just missing in terms of our football team. We were missing that at the time that we brought him on.”

When Elway rejoined the Broncos, the team was coming off a 4-12 season, the one in which now-Patriots offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels was fired after 12 games. Since then, the Broncos have witnessed the rise of Tebow, an overtime playoff win over the Steelers, and the acquisition of Manning.

They also witness an executive with the ability to make a calculated decision about what was best for his franchise, about what was most likely to get his franchise to another Super Bowl. To Elway, that wasn’t Tebow. It was Manning.

“[Elway] might lack some of the experience as far as some of the rules and the financials and all those things, but I think the most important asset is he knows what a championship player looks like and what kind of players we want to bring into this organization and the direction we want it to go,” coach John Fox said.

The Broncos have seen Elway take charge, take risks, take over. It’s what they saw from him as a player. As Fox said, “He’s not afraid to make tough decisions. He’s not afraid to do the things it takes to win a championship. If that’s your definition of a gunslinger, I’d say yes.”

Ellis said, “At the end of the day, he goes with what he believes is a decision that will be in the best interests of our football team. And that’s all it came down to for him. He stuck to his guns, and here we are.” Paige: Broncos coach Fox wants winner for next ring

By Woody Paige The Denver Post February 1,2011

John Fox didn't come to Denver because he loves snow, subzero temperatures and Casa Bonita.

Fox didn't need money; he made $6.5 million last year. He wouldn't have been out of work long; the Eagles offered him a job. Fox didn't believe he had to prove anything to anyone else; he had turned the Panthers around three times.

He became the Broncos' head coach for one reason.

In early 1978, as the Broncos were gearing for their first Super Bowl, Fox was hired by the legendary Sid Gillman as defensive backs coach at United States International University, a small San Diego liberal-arts school playing big-time Division I football.

"A couple of other new assistants had been with another college that lost its bowl. They just got their rings and were showing them off when Coach Gillman walked in the room," Fox told me. "He looked at the rings and said, 'You got these for getting your (rears) kicked, and you're proud of them?' Then he stomped out. I've never forgotten that."

Fox has two Super Bowl rings — one for being an assistant on the losing Giants in XXXV and the other for being the head coach on the losing Panthers in XXXVIII.

He doesn't wear, or look at, either.

"I came back to get a winning ring. It's why I do this."

In the week leading up to Super Bowl XLV, Fox is well aware that his seventh NFL stop likely will be his last chance at winning a ring. His bosses, Pat Bowlen and John Elway, each own two NFL championship rings (and three loser's rings).

Elway and Bowlen celebrated their last Super Bowl on Jan. 31, 1999. Fox is hounded by his loss on Feb. 1, 2004.

If this amalgamation of Bowlen, Elway & Fox doesn't result in a Super Bowl in the next four seasons, they may all move on to the beach. In 2015 Bowlen will be 71, Fox 60 and Elway 55. Bowlen has a home in Hawaii, Elway one near Los Angeles, and Fox was a beach bum in San Diego in high school and at San Diego State.

"I'm not ready to retire to sitting on the beach," Fox said.

After his collegiate playing career ended in 1977, Fox spent the next season with the Aztecs as a graduate assistant and earned his teaching certificate. His goal was to be a high school football coach. But his career took an odd turn when USIU decided to upgrade its football program, and the university president suggested, on a lark, that the athletic director call Gillman, the former coach of the San Diego Chargers. Gillman and Paul Brown have been termed the "fathers of modern pro football."

Gillman, who lived in the San Diego area, agreed to end his short- lived retirement and take over the Globe Runners. He hired a young staff that included Fox and two other assistants who ended up in the NFL, and a fourth eventually was named a major-college head coach.

"The most important thing Coach Gillman taught me was simplifying the terminology," Fox said.

The minimizing of memorization made the system easier for players to understand in practice and execute in games. "I still use that terminology," Fox says.

Fox was straight out of the Gillman coaching tree that branched throughout pro football. Al Davis coached under Gillman with the Chargers (and later hired Fox as his coordinator). Among those who coached or studied with Gillman (who early on served as an assistant with Vince Lombardi) were Bum Phillips, Chuck Noll, Paul Dietzel, Jack Faulkner (the Broncos' second coach), Ara Parseghian and .

Yet, Fox spent only four months with Gillman, who left abruptly to become Dick Vermeil's offensive coordinator with the Eagles. Tom Walsh was elevated at USIU (which had only 1,500 undergraduates), and the Globe Runners finished 8-3.

Since then, USIU has dropped football and even dropped its name (it's now Alliant International University).

Fox departed after a year and continued on a coach's odyssey at six other colleges, one United States Football League team and five NFL teams. He was named the Panthers' head coach in 2002.

The late Gillman, a pass-offense genius, and Fox, a run-oriented coach, disagreed about a critical offensive strategy. Gillman felt that running the football was an unnecessary nuisance. "He would tell us that in any situation, if he had to choose between his worst pass play and his best run play, he'd call the pass.

"I'm the opposite. I'd rather use my worst run play than my best pass play."

Gillman would be bored.

The Panthers' run-pass yardage NFL rankings for Fox's nine seasons: 2002, 25-30; 2003, 7-18; 2004, 28-9; 2005, 19-17; 2006, 24-15; 2007, 14-29; 2008, 3-19; 2009, 3-27; 2010, 13-32.

This season the Packers were ranked 24-5, the Steelers 11-14. On overall defense, Pittsburgh was second, Green Bay fifth.

With the Broncos, Fox will have to duplicate his best rankings in both offensive categories and his strongest ranking on defense (third in 2005) the same season if he intends to wear a winning ring. That’s the Fact, Jack

Eric Goodman Mile High Sports Magazine August 29, 2012

Broncos fans have heard the same rhetoric for seven consecutive years.

"You're going to hear every defensive coordinator talk about being aggressive because that's what we're all looking for," said Denver's newest defensive coordinator, Jack Del Rio, the seventh man to wear that job title since 2006. "Aggressive has nothing to do with scheme; it has to do with the mentality you play with. It has to do with a mindset you approach tough moments with and your ability to perform in critical situations."

Call it mindset, scheme or lack of talent; the Broncos should have installed a revolving door to the defensive coordinators office the moment Larry Coyer was. And there's been plenty of speculation the wheels are greased for Del Rio to push his way out of Denver after this season, as he figures to be a hot coaching prospect. Yet he isn't in a hurry to leave the job he's barely started.

"Because I was a head coach for nine years, I'm not obsessed with being a head coach again," Del Rio explained. "I'm not obsessed with moving on. If it ever happens, great. But I'm really trying to be in the moment."

The moment is best embodied by a guy who won't play this season. Journeyman Jason Hunter was Del Rio's type of guy before he tore his triceps in training camp.

Best known for being stabbed in Detroit in 2011, Hunter embraced Del Rio's words and aggressively moved up the depth chart, replacing former first-round pick Robert Ayers at defensive end. Hunter played with a passion rarely seen in recent years and set the standard for what Del Rio wants this season.

"The guys who approach it that way are going to play more," the defensive coordinator said. "The guys who don't approach it that way are going to have a tough time staying here for long because that's what we're building. We're going to keep pushing for it, keep demanding it, and keep rewarding those that give it to us and make life difficult for those that don't."

It's been difficult for Ayers, but Del Rio makes no apologies, nor should he. His résumé is impressive.

A rugged linebacker during his 11-year NFL career and standing 6-foot-4, he can go eye to eye and toe to toe with any player on the Broncos roster. He's made a career of talking tough, backing it up and getting results, though he never thought it would happen when he retired before the 1996 season.

"I never thought about coaching when I was playing, never when I was playing," he said. "I looked at the hours the coaches work and I said, 'There's no way I'm doing that.' But as I got older, I realized I love the game too much to be away from it."

"Then, called me and asked me how I was doing and took me to lunch. He said. 'Are you happy?' and I said, 'Yeah, I'm happy.' He said, 'Are you really happy?' and I said, 'No, I'm miserable.' He said, 'I think you'd be a great coach and I think you ought to pursue this.' So he invited me down to the and next thing you know gave me an opportunity in 1996 with the Saints."

Del Rio's didn't start to get noticed until he was the Ravens linebackers coach the year they won Super Bowl XXXV. He parlayed his success into joining John Fox as the Carolina Panthers defensive coordinator in 2002 - taking the 31st ranked defense to No. 2 in one season.

Del Rio was on the map and the Jacksonville Jaguars hired him as their head coach in 2003, where he stayed until last season.

Now, he's back with the man who gave him his first big break as a coordinator. They only spent one year together, and Fox would like to make sure it isn't another one and done.

Success breeds opportunity, so they'll be a host of suitors if Del Rio turns around the Broncos defense. He'll be a wanted man. But after talking to him, I'm not so sure he'll want out right away. If the Broncos are going to lose a coordinator after this season, the smart money is on Mike McCoy.

Get to Know: Dave Magazu

Stuart Zaas DenverBroncos.com August 22, 2012

Offensive Line Coach Dave Magazu talks about his position group's versatility, the importance of continuity and the effect of quarterback Peyton Manning.

Editor's Note: This coach Q&A ran in the 9/18 Gameday program, when the Broncos took on the Seattle Seahawks. How important is continuity on the offensive line? "I think it's a positive because the guys have worked together. They know each other. They know the terminology. It's easy to communicate because they are like one right now. We have some other guys who can fill in if we get a little nicked up here and there. All of those guys have been together and that's nothing but a positive, because one of the biggest things is communication and being on the same page, and I think we're there. We communicate much better today compared to the same time last year." What does the signing of QB Peyton Manning mean for the offensive line? "I think Peyton brings a lot of communication and a lot of knowledge to the game. The one thing you look for your quarterback to do from an offensive line standpoint is to paint a picture of what we're getting and getting everybody on the same page. I think he does a great job of that. The lines of communication are constant during the game and on the field and on the line of scrimmage. He does a great job of communicating and painting that picture for the guys up front." What have you seen from the offensive line since the pads went on during training camp? "I think we've made progress from last year. What we said when we came in here as a group, we're going to have to crawl before we can walk, walk before we can run, so we're going to continue to get better. I thought as a group, we improved as last year went on. There's still a lot of room for improvement and we're hoping to get to that next level." How important is it for offensive linemen to be able to play multiple positions along the line? "The NFL is different. It doesn't matter how many linemen you carry. On gameday, you usually dress seven. So those extra two guys, and some guys on your starting group, they need to be able to play more than one position to give you added depth. You have to have the ability to move guys around. They have to be able to play more than one position. Even with the starters, we have a couple guys that are dabbling at other positions for emergency purposes, or the wheels fall off, or for whatever. So we're trying to train some guys at more than one position. That brings you some added depth. I also think it helps a guy that plays more than one position to see some of the problems that other guys have." Get to Know: Assistant Special Teams Coach Keith Burns

Stuart Zaas DenverBroncos.com September 28, 2012

Assistant Special Teams Coach Keith Burns talks about his relationship with Rod Smith and how Smith's story still impacts the Broncos.

Editor’s Note: This Q&A story ran in the Sept. 23 Gameday program, when the Broncos played the Houston Texans.

What was Rod Smith like as a teammate?

“He was awesome. We came into the league together. His first year, our rookie year, he got put on practice squad and I was fortunate enough to make the team. He was always a great teammate. One thing he always had was his work ethic. He was very determined to do what he needed to do to allow himself to even make the team. He made the practice squad his rookie year because we were loaded at wide receiver. But once he got his opportunity to show what he could do, he took full advantage of it and the rest is pretty much history.”

How excited were you to hear that Smith had been inducted into the Ring of Fame?

“I’m always happy for him. I would put him up there right with John (Elway) and Shannon (Sharpe) and them because I’ve seen where he was and I’ve seen where he is now and he’s always been humble about everything that he’s gotten, all the accolades and everything. We always say that there’s no substitute for hard work. He never looked at that as any different, whether it was him having to cover a kick or him having to go out there and catch 10 balls in a game, he never wavered. He was willing to do whatever he had to do to win a game. That, to me, shows his mindset as far as the team concept goes. He’s the epitome of a guy who is willing to go out there and do whatever it takes to win a game. So to see him go into the Ring of Fame, it’s almost like your brother getting that same accolade. To have your name go up in the Ring of Fame, it’s almost like the ultimate other than the Hall of Fame. But hopefully that will be the next thing coming up. To know him and to know the type of person that he is, I think he will cherish it and I’m just happy for him.”

Do you think he deserves to be in the Hall of Fame?

“There’s no question. I don’t know what the criteria is, but if you just go off the pure numbers, he probably has the best undrafted numbers out there for a receiver. I know there’s a lot of good receivers out there now waiting for that call. But at the same time, you can put his numbers up to any of them and they compare. I think it’s just a matter of time and it’s not like he’s in a rush to have to be in the Hall of Fame. He doesn’t have to be a first-ballot guy, but at the same time, if the Pro Football Hall of Fame stands by what they stand for, there’s no question that he’ll be in, because he has the numbers. It’s just the time thing. He has to wait his turn.”

Do you use his story with current players?

“All the time. He even comes around, when he comes back around he tells a lot of the young guys that that’s how he got his start, is starting on special teams. To have that opportunity, he just wanted to play ball. Whatever he had to do, whether it was covering a kick – I remember games where he covered kicks and caught passes and ran reverses and threw passes, so he basically did the whole gamut throughout his whole career. But knowing where he had to start, I always use his upbringing as far as his NFL goals, along with Terrell Davis, because they kind of parallel. Me coming in with Rod, knowing what he had to go through and what he’s been through makes it that much more important. But I always tell the young guys, if there’s a guy you ever want to pattern yourself after, especially wide receivers because you don’t hear a lot of wide receivers being able to do a whole lot. I think he basically just took advantage of every opportunity that he got. He just loved the game, respected the game for what it was. So I’m always proud to say that I know a guy like that, who started on special teams and became an integral part of Broncos football.” Broncos strength coach Luke Richesson wants players to finish strong

By Jeff Legwold The Denver Post July 11, 2012

Even with all the cutting-edge equipment, scientific research and advances in technology that surround Luke Richesson in the Broncos' strength and conditioning center, there is still room for a little of the old-school approach.

There is still room for the idea that yes, eating breakfast matters. And lunch, dinner, two snacks and getting enough sleep.

"Some of what we do is based on the latest research, new ideas, but some of what we do isn't necessarily rooted in some grand scientific theory," said Richesson, in his first season as the Broncos' strength and conditioning coach. "It's 'Hey, did you eat breakfast today? Did you eat at regular intervals? Did you put the kind of food in you that will help you?'

"These guys are Ferraris. They are not work trucks. To be their best, they have to maintain themselves at all times. That's part of our message as we get our program going here to try to do our part to get this team where everybody wants it. And we know our challenges to do that."

Richesson said two of the biggest challenges are avoiding what has become a routine late-season swoon and finding ways to take advantage of playing at Denver's mile-high elevation. While playing at altitude has certainly helped the home team through the years — the Broncos have won 75 percent of their December home games in the franchise's history — Richesson believes there may be another side to the coin. He believes there is plenty of research, to go with his experiences as performance director at Athletes Performance Institute in Phoenix, a noted facility that has many current and future NFL players among its clients, that revealed living day-to-day at altitude has some impact as well.

"I think it's clear, the research is clear, it's more difficult to consistently maintain maximum performance, maximum output at altitude," Richesson said. "There's the build-up of (carbon dioxide) when you train that your body has to deal with, and we have less oxygen. So, to that end we have to make sure everything else in the program is in order. Even the simple things like meals, sleep, what we eat, take on a greater importance."

To that end Richesson has outfitted all of the Broncos players with heart monitors — they look like electronic harnesses — to wear during workouts. Richesson and his staff can then track each player's heart rate, using a hand-held device, at any point during a workout. All of the information is also collated and stored on computer.

Richesson said the devices also enable his staff to measure a player's overall progress over time and to monitor his recovery times from each part of the workouts in real time.

"They know right away how you did two weeks ago and two minutes ago," Broncos defensive end Elvis Dumervil said. "Even one day to the next. They see what's going on with you while you're going through it."

"The numbers don't lie," Richesson said. "If you see significant changes with athletes of this caliber in one-minute recovery times, two-minute recovery times, you know something's up. In almost every case, when you ask after seeing the numbers dip, something has impacted their diet, sleep schedules or there is an injury issue. We want to know, to be able to compare and track heart-rate performance at every level."

Richesson said he also believes it is possible to overtrain, something you don't hear much about in an era in which the benefits of intense training are preached. Even with elite athletes, he said, there is a point of diminishing returns.

The Broncos have revamped their weight room in recent weeks, have incorporated additional activities into their workouts — some drills based on mixed martial arts — and removed some of the more traditional free weights to replace them with pneumatic machines, which use air pressure to create resistance.

The new machines also measure, and display, a player's output during workouts in real time. And all of that information can be stored for comparison over time too.

It's all part of an effort to reverse the fact the Broncos are 26-76 in December regular-season road games in their franchise's history — that's just a 25.5 percent winning percentage. In the last three seasons alone, the Broncos have gone 1-3, 1- 6 and 0-4 overall down the stretch and not finished above 8-8 in any of those years even as they won the AFC West title in 2011.

"Our goal is to get our guys in position to finish the race," Richesson said. "We want to jump from the gate, and we want to have something left to finish the race."

In Denver Broncos' front office, veterans form core for scouting, health

Jeff Legwold The Denver Post August 15, 2012

Today's question about the Broncos comes from Darryl Gibbens:

Q: Who is the longest tenured staff member on the Broncos? My best guess is Steve Antonopulos. I recall seeing him on the sidelines when Red Miller was coach. So, how about some nods to the heroes behind the scenes?

A: Darryl, your guess is right on the money, at least on the football side of the team's staff directory.

All you have to do is stroll by the vast array of team pictures the Broncos have adorning a hallway or two in their Dove Valley complex and it's clear just how long Steve Antonopulos has been with the organization.

There he is in the photos, a few spots down from Red Miller. There he is a few spots down from Dan Reeves. There he is a few spots down from Wade Phillips, Mike Shanahan, Josh McDaniels and now John Fox. The Broncos' head trainer has been with the team longer than Pat Bowlen has owned it — Bowlen is in his 29th season of ownsership.

In all, this is Antonopulos' 36th season with the Broncos.

Antonopulos, called "Greek," by most everyone in the league, helped monitor the playing health of all of the players in all of those photos, including John Elway throughout Elway's playing career. Elway is now Antonopulos' boss with the Hall of Fame quarterback having been named the team's executive vice president of football operations in January of 2011.

Vice president of corporate communications Jim Saccomano is in his 35th year with the team and for most of those seasons handled media relations for the coaching staff, front office and players.

Midwest area scout Scott DiStefano, a former quarterback at CSU, is now in his 31st year with the Broncos. When he started with the team in addition to his scouting duties he also aided then assistant head coach-defensive coordinator Joe Collier break down game film.

Southwest area scout Cornell Green started with the Broncos in 1987, so he's in his 26th year with the franchise. Green was selected to the Pro Bowl seven times in his playing career with the Cowboys despite the fact he was an undrafted player when he broke into the league.

The Broncos video staff has had plenty of staying power. Video operations manager Gary McCune is now in his 21st season, having started with the team when Reeves was head coach. Also, video assistant Kirt Horiuchi is in his 19th season and current video director Steve Boxer is in his 16th season.

The Broncos' turf manager, , started with the Broncos in 1994 and is now in his 19th year with the organization.

Among the football-related staff, Elway is likely next in line with 18 years with the franchise, 16 of those coming as a player.

Then there's assistant special teams coach Keith Burns, who is in his 17th year with the team, six of those as an assistant coach, 11 as a player over two stints with Denver.

Burns also played one season each in Chicago (1999) and Tampa Bay (2004). He played for the Broncos 1996-98 (he was a seventh-round draft pick in '94), 2000- 03 and 2005-06. He joined Shanahan's coaching staff immediately following his playing career.

The Broncos' equipment manager, Chris Valenti, is now in his 16th season with the team, having started in 1997, the first of back-to-back Super Bowl seasons for the Broncos.

College scouting coordinator Dave Bratten is in his 14th season with the team, his 12th year in scouting. An Arvada native, Bratten started with the Broncos as a media relations intern, working for Saccomano, in 1997.

And in what is likely a testament to the loyalty Bowlen often shows the folks who work for him, that's the list and a fairly large one in a business that, for most teams in the league, often sees so much change on the football side of things.

Broncos Show Support for Colorado

Gray Caldwell DenverBroncos.com September 8, 2012

In 2012, Colorado has suffered through a tragic shooting in Aurora and multiple wildfires throughout the state.

To honor the victims of the tragedies and show their support for the state, the Broncos will wear a special helmet decal for the 2012 season.

The sticker — pictured above — is a ribbon featuring the state flag of Colorado.

The decal will make its first appearance this Sunday night, when the Broncos take on the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Showing support for their home state is an important cause for the Broncos this season. As linebacker Von Miller wrote in his latest blog, “We had a lot of stuff happen around Denver in the last year and we just want to bring some happiness and joy — and hopefully some wins — back to Colorado this season.” Broncos' Peyton Manning, Jacob Tamme and Brandon Stokley visit with former coach Tony Dungy

Mike Klis The Denver Post September 4, 2012

For a few minutes there, it seemed the old had taken over Dove Valley.

Every Broncos player was off the practice fields Monday except for rookie Ronnie Hillman, who stayed late to field some kickoffs. Just off the other practice field were Peyton Manning, Jacob Tamme and Brandon Stokley, former Colts who were gathered around Tony Dungy, their old coach.

Dungy is now an NFL analyst for NBC, which will televise the Broncos' season opener Sunday night against Pittsburgh. The coach was here to tape an interview with Manning, his former quarterback.

How Manning and his Broncos offense attack this season, Dungy said, will depend on how the defense plays them.

"How are people going to play him?"

Dungy said. "My guess is they will play them to take away the run early and see if he can do it. I think they'll be forced to throw early, and my guess is he'll throw pretty well — and then when the defense starts to play pass, those running backs will get going."

Steven "Walk-on" Johnson. Broncos coach Richard Smith could probably spot a linebacker from a Grand Central Station crowd during rush hour. It has to be easier than finding the talent that is Steven Johnson.

Growing up in the Philadelphia area, Johnson walked on with the Kansas Jayhawks. Four years later, Johnson not only was undrafted, he played for a Kansas defense that last season gave up 66 points to Georgia Tech, 70 points to Oklahoma State, 59 to Kansas State and 61 to Texas A&M.

Yet, Smith loved what he saw of Johnson on film and signed him as a college free agent. And now here Johnson is, unquestionably this year's on the Broncos' 53-man roster. "I kind of did it again, you know," Johnson said. "Being a college free agent is kind of like being a walk-on. I beat the odds twice."

Brandon "Comeback" Stokley. Appreciation for making the 53-man roster isn't just for undrafted rookies. Broncos slot receiver Brandon Stokley is 36 and set to begin his 14th season — two years after the Broncos released him with an injury settlement just before the 2010 season.

He caught on with Seattle that season, and briefly with the New York Giants in 2011, but most people figured he was done.

"I thought I was done," Stokley said. " I was pretty much 99 percent done. There was a 1 percent chance I would ever play again. But everything fell into place. So I know how fortunate I am. Now I want to take advantage of it. I didn't come back just to make the team. I want to help this team win games."

Footnotes. Several players changed numbers. Most notably, Hillman is now No. 21 and safety Jim Leonhard is No. 36. ... After practice Monday, Bronco players broke into three groups for their annual luncheon. All the offensive players went to one fine-dining establishment, all the defensive players went to another, and all three specialists — Matt Prater, Britton Colquitt and Aaron Brewer — went to yet another.

Denver Broncos safety Mike Adams a big fan of helping children

As a child growing up in Paterson, N.J., Mike Adams said he and his peers had two choices: sports or the streets.

Adams picked sports, and now, at age 31 and in his ninth season in the NFL, is working toward a goal of establishing a community center for kids in his old neighborhood.

Adams was the first free agent signed by the Broncos this past offseason as part of a plan to revamp the team's secondary with the expected retirement of safety Brian Dawkins. When Dawkins officially decided to end his career in May, Adams took over ownership of jersey No. 20, the number he began wearing as a college player at the University of Delaware.

Q: What do you want Broncos fans to know about you as a player?

A: I want them to see that I play hard, and that I still have the passion as when I was playing in high school, and that I still run around like I was 21. I want them to know I go hard every play, and you can expect me going 100 percent all the time.

Q: That certainly sounds like Brian Dawkins. Do you think you have big shoes to fill replacing him?

A: No. Not at all. I mean, I don't feel any pressure. I'm my own man. I've never been to a Pro Bowl; he's been to a bunch of Pro Bowls. I'm not as big as him; I'm just me. We are two different players. I admire him, and I tried to mimic part of game, especially his intensity.

Q: What was your childhood like in New Jersey?

A: It was rough growing up because there really wasn't much to do but play football in the backyard. Like right now, there's no place like a community center, no place for kids to go to get away from the streets and all the negativity. That's all we had, really, was sports.

Q: How has that impacted what you like to do off the field?

A: That's why I'm now focused on New Jersey, on doing a lot of stuff there. Ultimately my goal is to get a community center up and running. I do a lot of things there, like backpack drives, free haircuts, free football camps, things like that. Q: How close are you to the goal of starting a community center?

A: I'll be more in tune with it when I'm done with football. Right now it's difficult because I'm a hands-on guy. I don't want to have someone else do it.

Q: Did you always want to play safety?

A: At first I wanted to play receiver. But then I started getting hit in high school, and I decided I wanted to hit people. You can't hit anybody on offense, so I switched to defense.

Q: How did you end up at Delaware?

A: Nobody else wanted me. It was funny, Rutgers came to recruit me. And (the coach) asked me all sorts of questions: Was I smart enough? Was I big enough? And I said, "Do you think I'm big enough or smart enough?" He gave me a stale look, so I said, "Have a nice day." I left. End of the day, I ended up in Delaware. It was between Maine and Delaware. My mother told me that no matter which school I went to, I had to get my education first anyway. That helped me a lot. (Adams earned a degree in family communications.)

Q: You've also played cornerback in the NFL. Is it an advantage, having experience at both positions?

A: I think so, because I understand what a corner sees. Sometimes, for instance, Champ Bailey or me and Tracy Porter, I can just give him a nod, or they nod at me and they can do something and know that I've got their back. And vice versa.

Q: Other than Dawkins, who were some of your favorite players to watch when you were young?

A: Jerry Rice, Roger Craig. I was a 49ers fan.

Q: How does a New Jersey kid end up cheering for San Francisco?

A: It was because of rivalry between the Giants and the 49ers back then. My brother is a die-hard Giants fan. It was basically the whole house. I was the oddball, I was always different, so I adopted the 49ers. It was on from there.

Q: So it must have been special to start your career with the 49ers.

A: That was about the coolest thing ever. Actually, I teared up. When I had my first day of practice for the 49ers, I took my helmet off and looked at it. I was like, "Holy cow."

2012 stats: 12 total tackles, four passes defended in two games. Broncos camp report: Eternals Bailey, Manning have it covered on both sides

Mike Freeman CBS Sports August 7, 2012

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- Maybe the most physically gifted athlete in NFL history sits humbly, smiling. There are no proclamations of greatness. He doesn't need them. No cockiness, no smart ass-ness. Not his style. Just Champ Bailey talking football.

Or, more to the point, longevity. The fact that Bailey has played the corner position, still covering the opposition's best receiver, week in and week out, remains one of the most incredible stories football has ever seen. It's difficult to quantify but Bailey joins an elite and small group that covered the best receiving weapons, one-on- one, well into his 30s, and at a Pro Bowl level.

One was Washington's , who played into his late 30s and until the day he retired covered the best receiving option. There are a few others, like Willie Brown, but what Bailey is doing might surpass even those Hall of Famers. As Bailey has aged, the speed of the game has changed dramatically. He's covering faster receivers than Green or Brown ever did, but still staying with them, stride for stride.

Bailey is also dealing with rules changes that cause a defensive back to be flagged if a pinky grazes a shoulder pad. The football world Bailey still dominates is more complex than the ones his aged and skilled predecessors played in.

"I remember five years ago people told me since I was getting to my 30s that I'd be retiring soon," the 34-year-old Bailey said in an interview. "Well, here I am."

Here he is, indeed. While Peyton Manning may be the story of the Denver Broncos, it is Bailey, again, who is the non-aging centerpiece. Receivers have come and gone. Corners have come and gone. So have NFL commissioners, presidents, space stations and sitcoms. The Earth has warmed, oceans have risen, dynasties have fallen ... all during Bailey's career, which started in 1999.

Bailey has stayed indestructible while still possessing incredible speed. He denied what a teammate told me, that Bailey plans to play two more years and then retire.

"I'm planning year to year," he said. "Right now I feel too good to think about retiring."

Maybe the best way to describe what Bailey has done is let another eternal do it for him. "I played against Champ three years in college, and so I remember him as a true freshman at Georgia," Manning said. "I remember how talented he was, and you just knew he was going to be a good player. I played against him my second year in Indy when he was with the Redskins, so I was telling somebody that the other day -- they're like, 'Champ played for the Redskins, and you played against him?' It's just like forever ago, I guess. But I think it's pretty well documented that every time I've played against him, you always get asked about Champ, and he's the best corner I've played against in my career, and he's been unbelievably consistent.

"I've played the Broncos a number of times, and he always shows up, he's always ready to go. He presents an intense matchup problem. Champ has never intercepted me in the NFL, but I don't think I've ever thrown a touchdown on him either, so it's a pretty good battle. He got me in college one time on an interception, so I'm glad we're on the same team. [The Colts] always had healthy respect for Champ. We never threw away from a certain guy because we felt like we loved our receivers. With Marvin [Harrison] and Reggie [Wayne], we're going to throw to those guys, but you always knew where Champ was. If you couldn't set your feet into it, it wasn't worth throwing. If you threw behind him, he was going to make you pay. ..."

And here he is ... again. Sports: Having a "Ball" with Teaneck's Lance Ball

Bob Klapisch 201 Magazine August 29, 2012

Lance Ball had been waiting for this moment his entire life – every one of his 26 years, four months and 25 days – which meant he was ready to sprint through the door the fates had just opened.

The war: Denver Broncos versus .

The calendar: Nov. 13, 2011.

The emergency: Denver's starting running backs, Willis McGahee and Knowshon Moreno, were down with first-quarter injuries.

The solution: Ball, a Teaneck native, rushing to the huddle – or, more accurately, body-surfing a wave of adrenaline.

"It happened so fast," Ball says, not even remembering why this was such a long shot.

Ball, after all, was a ghost to those outside the Broncos family. Until that moment, he had carried the ball in exactly one NFL game, having been cut five times by four teams – including once by the Broncos in September 2010.

But Ball was quick to rearrange those facts. All those years of waiting, he decided, were nothing more than extended calisthenics, better preparing him to seize the day. It's the kind of carpe diem that usually takes place on the silver screen, but this was no fuzzy Hollywood moment. This was Ball turning in a breakthrough performance that awakened the Broncos and their fans alike: He carried the ball 30 times against the Chiefs, picking up 96 yards in Denver's 17-10 win. Just that easily, Ball let the world in on a secret he'd always known about himself.

"All I'd ever wanted was the chance, and the rest would take care of itself," he says. "Once I got to that point, it was all instinct. I just had to keep the faith."

It's impossible to take inventory of Ball's career without noting the obstacles, starting with his size. At 5 feet 9 inches, Ball is at least two inches shorter than the average NFL running back, which made it harder to attract the attention of pro scouts. After graduating from Teaneck High School in 2003, where he rushed for 3,403 yards and 39 touchdowns, Ball went on to a stellar four-year career at the University of Maryland. By his sophomore year, Ball was already an ACC force, earning second-team all-conference honors.

Yet Ball was passed over in the NFL's college draft in 2008 – a setback for the player who, until then, had always prevailed against the odds.

"I really thought I'd get picked somewhere between the fourth and seventh rounds, but a lot of teams were on the fence," he says.

Talent evaluators failed to quantify Ball's low center of gravity and the exponential way he used his 220 pounds to surprise would-be tacklers.

Only now do the Broncos understand what makes Ball a nightmare to bring down.

"Lance plays bigger than he is," quarterback Tim Tebow said last year. "I think it comes from his thick lower body. He runs harder than what his body weight says. He's stronger than you would think."

It took stops in several camps for that revelation to gain traction in the NFL. Ball was on the periphery in St. Louis, Tennessee, Indianapolis and Denver for part of three seasons, during which time he had carried the ball a total of 13 times. Those lean years should've been enough to discourage even the most driven athlete, but Ball reasoned he had several factors still working in his favor.

First, he had a degree in family studies with a minor in community health, which meant there was always a plan B waiting. Second, in an era when pro athletes often end up bold-faced on the gossip pages – or worse, on the police blotter – Ball has lived quietly on the other end of the social spectrum. He's mature and low- maintenance, the kind of player coaches often choose over more talented but more volatile stars. "Dependable" is what Ball calls himself, an asset that rolls over into even higher praise.

"I stay out of trouble," he says. "I'm a good guy and a good guy in the community."

Ball learned the importance of connecting while growing up in Teaneck, which in retrospect he calls "unique" in its enlightened, diverse culture.

"I've since moved out, but I still go home once or twice a year," he says. "It makes me appreciate what a special place Teaneck was, how it stressed community and friendships. We had a good school [system] and good athletics."

Still, it's not an easy sell when Ball describes the Garden State to teammates, not one of whom played college ball in the northeast.

"When they hear New Jersey, people think, 'Oh, you're from the Jersey Shore,'" Ball says with a laugh. "I try to tell them [Teaneck] is nowhere close to there, and it's totally different, anyway." Once they get past the ribbing, Ball is able to peel away the layers of psychological flesh to reveal his nuclear core, that tenacious, me-against-the-odds engine.

"I was in Lance's shoes at one time – chasing a dream – and I never stuck anywhere, so when you have players like him it has special meaning to me," Broncos offensive coordinator Mike McCoy told the New York Post. "In this business, it's being in the right place at the right time and making the most of opportunities, and that's exactly what Lance has done.'"

Ball's universe has changed for the better since his unveiling against the Chiefs last November. He is no longer an afterthought on the Broncos' depth chart, but an integral part of an offense that, now being run by Peyton Manning, looks to be even more dangerous than it was under Tebow, who is now with the Jets.

There are inherent dangers for Ball, who knows the longer he plays, the more times he's taken down by a crunching tackle, the greater the chance of head injury later in life.

"I do worry about how I'm going to be 10, 15, 20 years from now," he says, especially as doctors continue to explore the connection between repeated head trauma and early dementia.

But Ball has spent too much of his life chasing one dream – football – to replace it with another – post-football – just yet. Besides, the fates have always been kind to the kid from Teaneck, who wasn't larger than his uniform but somehow has always been larger than life. That's some winning streak. Denver Broncos CB Omar Bolden switched from RB in high school

Lindsay H. Jones The Denver Post September 30, 2012

Editor's note: Each Sunday throughout the season, The Denver Post's Broncos reporters help readers get to know the players on a more personal level.

Playing cornerback at a high level was Omar Bolden's ticket to the NFL, yet the Broncos' rookie fourth-round draft choice came to the position reluctantly.

He has Pete Carroll (and Joe McKnight) to thank for it.

Bolden played only running back until Carroll, then the coach at Southern California, asked him to switch to defense during a summer camp before Bolden's senior year of high school.

Bolden remembered McKnight, one of the nation's top running back recruits, barreling toward him after catching a swing pass. The players weren't wearing pads, but Bolden realized he was either going to absorb a hit or deliver one.

"I kind of got a little physical with him and I made him fumble the ball," Bolden said. "And after that it was like, instantly, I've got to be one of the top corners in the nation. I was kind of upset, because I didn't want to play corner. At the end of the day, though, it was the fastest way for me to get on the field, and that's all I cared about anyway. I just wanted to play."

Bolden didn't wind up playing for Carroll, instead picking Arizona State. Bolden missed his senior year with the Sun Devils after suffering a torn anterior cruciate ligament in spring football in 2011.

Now in the NFL, he won the job as the Broncos' kickoff returner and is trying to work up the depth chart at cornerback.

Q: When did you realize that playing cornerback, and not running back, was the right position for you?

A: As a running back, you take all the pounding, all the beating. I felt so much better after the games. My body felt great. It was like, Pete Carroll just extended my career by nine years. That's how I felt. At first I hated it, but then it was like, "Thank God."

Q: What were teen years like in California? A: Wild. Just ran the streets. Problems going on at home, so I kind of low-key just abandoned school.

Q: What do you mean by "abandoned school?"

A: I kind of went, kind of didn't. It was like freshman and sophomore year. That was about the time I realized I was good at football. But I kind of just did enough to get by, and it ended up hurting me. My senior year, I think I was enrolled in 12 classes. Night school, Saturday school, classes at a junior college. I had seven periods at school — most seniors had four.

Q: When did it sink in that you might not graduate?

A: It was never an issue of if I was going to graduate. But it was an issue of going to college. My junior year, my coach was like, "There is no way you're going to get into school if you don't do something." Pete Carroll came to my school and told me, "Listen, man, you can be big, but you've got to get your academics in order." He came at me with a plan, and I executed the plan and I made it.

Q: What were your emotions like last year, going from the high of deciding to return to school, then tearing your ACL so soon after?

A: It was terrible. It was like, I could have left (for the NFL). The reason I chose to come back was because I got a fourth-round grade. I was a fourth this year. Part of me was saying it was a dumb decision and I should have taken my chances and left. But there was part of me that figured everything happens for a reason. At least I was able to graduate. I was the third person in my family to graduate. That was huge for my family, because we set the trend now.

Q: Was it tough to watch ASU last year?

A: I had dreams of winning the Thorpe Award, of being a Heisman finalist, all sorts of things. So I'm watching games unfold on the field and I'm thinking, "If I was out there, I could have made that play." So for that and to see us struggle at the same time, that (was tough) 'cause I know I could have made an impact.

Q: How has that shaped your perspective here as a rookie in the NFL?

A: It just let me know not to take any of this for granted, because at any moment it can all be taken away from you. No one touched me when I got hurt. I was just running, so it gave me a new perspective on the game and on life. You've got to enjoy it while you're here.

Omar Bolden file Age: 23

Hometown: Ontario, Calif.

College: Arizona State

Draft: Fourth round (No. 101 overall) 2012

College stats: 41 games, 35 starts despite missing senior year with ACL injury; seven interceptions, 138 total tackles.

Mike Klis The Denver Post July 27, 2012

Both here and everywhere, the shootings at the Aurora theater last week stirred thoughts and feelings in nearly every able-minded, feeling person.

For Broncos receiver Eric Decker, the tragedy caused a flashback.

"It brought back some tough memories," Decker said. "It sparked some emotions. It sparked memories of what happened in high school."

Decker was a junior at Rocori High School in the small town of Cold Spring, Minn., sitting in the cafeteria during his lunch period when the principal went on the intercom and announced "Code Red."

The cafeteria and classroom doors were locked up. The school had just gone through a Code Red exercise a couple weeks earlier, but this was no practice drill.

Two of Decker's high school classmates were shot dead by 15-year-old freshman Jason McLaughlin. It was Minnesota's first fatal shooting by a student inside a school.

It's impossible for anyone to fully understand what the people inside theater no. 9 at Century Aurora 16 were experiencing on July 20 when suspect James Holmes allegedly interrupted the midnight premier of the latest Batman movie by firing on them, killing 12 and injuring 58.

But Decker may understand a little more than others.

"It's something that's always with you," said Decker, who led all Broncos receivers last season in catches (44), yards (612) and touchdowns (eight). "It's not something I talk about much. It's something where I try not to dwell on it because it's such a bad memory. But it's there. It's always there."

The circumstances between the shootings at Rocori High and the Aurora theater had many differences. Holmes' alleged shooting spree seemed random, although far more elaborately planned. McLaughlin's trial revealed he had targeted fellow freshman Seth Bartell, who supposedly had long teased the gunman. McLaughlin's second shot at Bartell missed and hit 17-year-old Aaron Rollins in the neck, killing the senior. Decker knew Rollins well as they had played baseball together. Bartell ran into the gym where he was shot in the head by the pursuing McLaughlin. Sitting in the gym bleachers with other students was physical education teacher Mark Johnson, who upon stepping toward McLaughlin, drew a pointed gun. Johnson, an imposing man, held out a hand and commanded "stop."

McLaughlin obeyed the teacher. He discharged his gun and essentially surrendered to Johnson. Bartell died 16 days later from his gun wounds. McLaughlin's attorneys used an insanity defense, but he was found guilty of first-degree murder of Bartell and second-degree murder of Rollins and given a life sentence.

The similarity between the shootings at Cold Spring, Minn. and the Aurora theater were that innocent people were participating in some of the most wholesome of American events — attending high school; attending a movie — and wound up dead.

Decker joined six of his Broncos teammates in visiting patients from the theater shooting Sunday at the Medical Center of Aurora.

One of the patients the Bronco players met with was Stephen Barton, whose 4,500- mile bike ride from Virginia to San Francisco was interrupted about 3,000 miles in. A stop in Aurora resulted in shotgun buckshot to his neck and face.

"They're talking about him completing that bike ride to San Francisco and having a fundraiser with it," Decker said. "I think it would be cool to get a bunch of Broncos involved in that."

Broncos Q&A: Joel Dreessen glad to be able to go home again

Lindsay H. Jones The Denver Post September 9, 2012

When tight end Joel Dreessen signed with the Broncos as a free agent in March, he made the decision to come home to the state where he was raised (in Fort Morgan) and where he played college football (at Colorado State).

But this homecoming meant making the difficult decision.

Dreessen, 30, could have stayed with the Houston Texans and likely finished his career in the Lone Star State.

That would have been too easy, Dreessen said.

Instead, he decided that joining the Broncos, with quarterback Peyton Manning and an entirely new offense, was just the type of challenge he needed at this point in his career.

"I don't want to say I was complacent, but I wanted to see if I could push my comfort zone and I wanted to see if could get better and improve as a player, as an athlete, as a person," Dreessen said.

The decision brought Dreessen, wife Stacy and 2-year-old son Dylan back home, where Sunday night Dreessen will make his debut in the stadium where he previously played as a Ram and a Texan.

Q: What was the deciding factor for you in picking Denver over Houston?

A: Honestly, it was Peyton and Mr. Elway having me believing in the opportunity we had to do something special. I think (head trainer Steve Antonopulos) put it up on the quote board the other day, basically, it's better to strike out doing something new than walk on the same beaten path on which you've already had success.

Q: How different, then, has it been for you here, in learning his offense compared with what you were used to with the Texans?

A: Playing tight end in the NFL is going to be the same thing. You have to hold up on the line of scrimmage against some of the best athletes — defensive ends, outside linebackers — blocking. Then you also have to run routes and get open and catch the ball. My job is the same, but the terminology is completely different. It was like learning a new language, and then the little techniques to every single play. In Houston, I knew what defenses were going to do to us, I knew what technique I was going to use to combat that. Here I'm still going through a lot of that.

Q: Let's talk about home. What was it like for you as a kid in Fort Morgan?

A: There wasn't a whole lot to do as a young person in that town, so you kind of had to make your own fun. Basically me and my friends, we grew up playing football in my backyard. My dad had this big lawn that he took so much pride in, fertilizing it, watering it. I grew up outside of town, so we were always playing in the cornfields and floating inner tubes down irrigation ditches. In the wintertime when it would snow, we'd go across the road, there was a gravel pit and we'd go sledding.

Q: How did you wind up at Colorado State?

A: I went to a football camp there, the summer before my senior year, and Coach (Sonny) Lubick said "Hey we want to offer you a scholarship." That was my first offer. I played about halfway through my senior year and I asked CU: "Look, are you going to offer me? Because otherwise I'm going to commit to Colorado State." They said no, they liked this other guy out of Kansas. So that was that. (Note: CU went with Quinn Sypniewski instead. He played in 31 games in 2006-07 for Baltimore.)

Q: What is your life like away from football?

A: Me and my wife's baby is our ranch. We have an 800-acre ranch about 75 miles east of Amarillo, Texas. We have eight head of cattle now. We lease some of the pasture land. We mostly are using it for hunting purposes now. That's my favorite thing to do. White tail deer, turkey, wild pigs, dove, quail, ducks, geese. It's a lot of fun.

About Joel Dreessen

Age: 30

Hometown: Fort Morgan

College: Colorado State

Draft: Sixth round by New York Jets in 2005

Career stats: 93 total games (79 with the Texans), 110 catches, 1,364 yards, 13 touchdowns. What to expect: Dreessen and fellow free-agent addition Jacob Tamme should see the field together plenty in two-tight-end packages. Dreessen is more of the traditional tight end in that scenario.

Personal: Married to Stacy. The couple has a 2-year-old son and is expecting a daughter in October. Broncos' Elvis Dumervil honors family of victim Jesse Childress

Mike Klis The Denver Post July 29, 2012

Know this Staff Sgt. Jesse Childress: You have done more for Elvis Dumervil than your favorite Broncos player has done for you. A day after Childress was buried at Fort Logan National Cemetery, a humbled Dumervil presented one of his framed game jerseys to Childress' family members following the Broncos' practice Sunday.

Along the stem of his "2" Dumervil inscribed: "Sgt. Childress, My thoughts and prayers are with your family. Jesse will always be in my thoughts and I will play with him in my heart."

Childress was one of 12 people killed in an Aurora theater shooting July 20. Dumervil was touched when told about a story in The Denver Post that said Childress wore his No. 92 jerseys on Broncos game days.

About a 3-wood drive away from where Dumervil met with the Childress family was the Arapahoe County Jail where theater shooting suspect James Holmes is being held.

"My perspective as a mother is (Holmes) has a mother, too," said Lisa Childress, Jesse's mom. "My heart goes out to his mom. That's just how our family thinks."

Dumervil had been bummed about his own problems until the Childress family helped him gained some perspective. The Broncos' star pass rusher was arrested in Miami Beach on July 15 allegedly for flashing a handgun in his waistband at a person in another car.

But the Miami-Dade state attorney's office has yet to file charges and two sources close to Dumervil say he did not have a gun on him, the gun in question is not his and he will be cleared once the investigation is completed.

"Lisa and Shannon, Jesse's mom and dad, they're such great people," Dumervil said. "You know, I've been going through some things and you when you hear about a thing like that you realize that there are bigger things than me, things that are bigger than all of us. You think you have it bad, but then something like this happens and you understand your problems are nothing compared to what so many other people are going through. When I heard they had my jersey at his funeral, it was just moving, man. They're a great family. Humble people. I will definitely play with them in my heart this year."

Chris Gronkowski set for first matchup against brother Rob

Lindsay H. Jones The Denver Post October 7, 2012

Late last month, a large box arrived at Dove Valley with Chris Gronkowski's name on it. Inside were dozens of pairs of extra-extra-large blue and orange Zubaz pants.

Immediately, Gronkowski became the most popular man in the locker room, as Bronco after Bronco rifled through the box to grab a pair of the early-1990s throwback zebra-striped pants.

Yes, as the Broncos prepare to face New England and their uber- talented tight end Rob Gronkowski on Sunday, let us not forget that Denver has its own popular Gronkowski here too.

Fullback Chris, two years older than Rob, arrived in Denver last spring in a trade with Indianapolis. That sets up a brother-vs.-brother matchup in Foxborough, Mass., with the winner claiming family bragging rights.

So, who will Mr. and Mrs. Gronkowski be cheering for?

"They won't tell me," Gronkowski said. "So we're going to have to see on game day what jersey they are wearing."

Q: So you're the middle of five Gronkowski brothers. What was that like for you growing up?

A: It's sweet. Everyone always says the middle child is the worst or whatever — what do they say? That everyone forgets about them? But that's not true. That's not true in my family. I got to play with my older brother in high school and college, and I played with my younger brother in high school and college, so I kind of get to do everything, so it was really pretty sweet. I get the best of everything.

Q: What makes you different from your brothers Rob and Dan (the former Broncos tight end)?

A: I'm not 6-6½. I'm shorter. For some reason, they all got to be 6-6. Basically they call me the little one. I'm probably the best; I just didn't get the height. If I was 6-6, they wouldn't even know who Rob was.

Q: They both play tight end. How does playing fullback suit you?

A: You get to go out there and hit someone as hard as you can, so that's pretty cool. And every once in a while, you get some passes. That's also awesome. And maybe a handoff here and there. Q: What else makes you unique in your family?

A: I'm way smarter than them. Especially Rob. I hit harder than them. You can write all of these things.

Q: If you weren't playing football, what would you be doing?

A: I'd probably be working for my dad, with my brother. He owns retail fitness stores. Does weight rooms for teams. Maybe using my degree for once.

Q: What was your major at Arizona?

A: Accounting. I used to be smart. It was the hardest major, so I took it. It's not very exciting.

Q: How would you describe your role here in Denver's offense?

A: When I got to Indy they said that Peyton (Manning) had always wanted a fullback. The role was a little bigger in camp and preseason, I think, because we were running the ball more, and the other quarterbacks ran. Once Peyton gets in there, it's kind of his show, and whatever he's feeling that day — if he can run no-huddle and get an advantage on the defense, that's what he's going to do. I'm playing all the special teams, trying to be one of the core players there. So that's what I'm trying to do for now, and I'm sure as the season goes on, my role will probably change on offense. When we get some big leads, I'm sure we'll run the ball a lot more.

Vying For Time

By Sam Davis DenverBroncos.com June 6, 2012

Cornerback Chris Harris is continuing to improve as he enters his second season with the Broncos.

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- Undrafted rookie Chris Harris climbed the depth chart to start four games last season with a tenacious work ethic that was first noticed during offseason workouts.

That earned him some early-season playing time with the special teams unit – but as he continued to raise eyebrows on the Broncos’ sideline, he found a niche during the second half of the season at nickel cornerback.

Now entering his second year in the league, the cornerback from Kansas knows that despite his success in 2011, his job isn't guaranteed in 2012.

"Being an undrafted free agent, you have to prove yourself every year," Harris said. "So I never stop working."

If he's going to maintain a similar role in a deeper, more talented Broncos' secondary, he'll have to show the same zeal that first caught the coaches’ eyes last year – because experience isn't a factor the 22-year-old has in his favor. This offseason, the team brought in three veteran defensive backs - cornerbacks Tracy Porter and Drayton Florence and safety Mike Adams. Combined, the three have played 21 years in the league.

But 2011 team captain Champ Bailey said he hasn't noticed Harris backing down from the competition.

"He's holding his own," Bailey said, noting that Harris always has a smile on his face. "That's one thing about him, he's such a competitor. He feels confident about what he does. He's just letting his play speak for itself."

As for Harris, he believes the additions to the secondary can only help him.

"Its just something I can gain experience from," Harris said. "These guys have been in the league for a long time. They are just adding competition and just making me better.

"We all talked as defensive backs and said we're never going to give each other bad advice, always try to help each other," he continued. "The competition is only going to make everybody better."

Although the unit will work together to improve as a whole, no one has lost sight of the fact that most slots on the depth chart might remain blank through training camp.

"We all understand every spot is up for grabs, except Champ's,” Harris said. “There's competition everywhere.” Surrounded by proven veterans, Harris' youth may count against him in the early goings. But to him, his young age only means more room for improvement and more time to learn.

"Really I just want to get faster and stronger," he said. "I'm only 22 years old. We drafted a guy that's older than me coming in, so I'm still young, still learning the game a lot more. There's a lot I can learn."

The draftee that Harris is referring to could be the 26-year old center from Baylor, Philip Blake. Or, it could be Omar Bolden, the 23-year old cornerback from Arizona State. Bolden is another name who will be fighting for those second, third, and fourth cornerback spots. Like Harris, Bolden was a four-year starter in college. But what Bolden hasn't done yet is go toe-to-toe with some of the NFL's top receivers. That kind of experience is what Harris hopes will make him a valuable asset to the Broncos' defense.

"Playing against top receivers like (Wes) Welker, Antonio Gates, I kind of got thrown in on the fly," Harris said. "Being able to go out there and play against those top guys definitely gives me confidence going into this season."

He earned playing time in Denver's two playoff games as well, making five tackles against Pittsburgh in the first round and starting against the Patriots in round two.

"Not a lot of undrafted rookies get that experience in the playoffs," Harris said.

Regardless of the fact that nearly every defensive back -- young or old -- is trying to secure a spot on the depth chart, the true task at hand is the same for every member of the Denver Broncos.

"We're all here for one common goal, and that's to win a Super Bowl," Harris said. Broncos’ Ronnie Hillman Once Played For Snoop Dog

CBS4 August 28, 2012

DENVER (CBS4) – Denver Broncos running back Ronnie Hillman was the guest on Xfinity Monday Live this week.

Hillman played his college ball at San Diego State and he played youth football for a fellow by the name of Calvin Broadus — a.k.a. Snoop Dog, who recently changed his name to Snoop Lion.

“He wanted to give up the Snoop Dog because it’s known for the gangster life. So now he’s a peaceful guy … like Bob Marley,” Hillman said.

Hillman said Snoop knows the game of football.

“He actually oversees things. It was his team but he had coaches that actually coached,” he said. “So we just traveled and went and played people, like famous people.”

He said he doesn’t really keep in touch with Snoop anymore except through Twitter and other social media.

“We don’t call each other every day.” Nate Irving prepared for second time around

Chuck Carree Wilmington (N.C.) Star News September 7, 2012

Nate Irving played in all 16 Denver Broncos games last season and continues to revamp his approach heading into Season 2 in the National Football League.

I think I have made a little bit of progress, but I still think I have a long ways to go,'' the ex-Wallace-Rose Hill High School star said as the Broncos prepare for their season opener Sunday night vs. Pittsburgh (8:20 p.m., NBC).

The Broncos saw enough potential to select him in the third round of the 2011 draft out of N.C. State, where he was an All-Atlantic Coast Conference linebacker two years ago.

With the Wolfpack, he was an intuitive player, allowed to improvise. He led the team with 97 tackles in his final season, including 20.5 for losses.

Now he is adjusting to a more structured scheme.

"It is more so about being technically sound,'' he said. "In college, I could freelance a little bit and just make plays. But in the NFL, everyone is elite and you can't do that. That is why you have to be technically sound because every little mistake you make can result in me giving up a big play for a touchdown. It may be the touchdown that costs us the game.''

Irving is listed as a second-team linebacker, but his biggest contributions will come on special teams. He is on punt coverage, kickoff coverage, field goals and extra points.

"But if my name and number is called on defense, I have to step in and be ready to pick up where Von Miller left off,'' he said.

Miller was NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year in 2011 and also participated in the Pro Bowl. He was taken one round ahead of Irving.

In this year's four preseason games, he finished second on the team with 14 tackles, including 13 solo hits.

"The preseason was good,'' Irving said. "It was a chance to get in there and fly around and play football.'' Last season, he had four special teams tackles and one in a playoff loss at New England.

He called a first-round playoff win over the Steelers the highlight of his career thus far.

With the acquisition of Peyton Manning, the Broncos have high hopes of repeating as AFC West champions, but Irving said little about the hype surrounding the star quarterback.

"He is here to help us get better,'' he said. "Defensively, we have to just focus on what we can do more so than worry about the other side of the ball.''

As for Irving, he is just thankful his career did not end when he fell asleep behind the wheel, resulting in an automobile accident and compound leg fracture, separated shoulder, collapsed lungs and broken ribs. It forced him to sit out the 2009 season.

He has the date of the accident – 6-28-09 tattooed on his left forearm.

"I have been through so much with the car accident,'' he said. "To come back from that is just a blessing in itself.''

Broncos rookie Malik Jackson makes his own way apart from twin brother

Lindsay H. Jones The Denver Post October 14, 2012

For years, it felt to Malik Jackson that no one knew his name.

As an identical twin, Jackson was constantly called "Twin," because people at school couldn't tell the difference between him and his brother, Marquis. No wonder Jackson is relishing the chance to make a name for himself in the NFL.

Jackson, a rookie fifth-round draft pick whom the Broncos selected with the pick obtained by trading Brandon Lloyd last season, is working his way into the defensive line rotation as a versatile player who can line up at end or tackle.

The Jackson boys were raised in a football-crazy family, by parents Jodie and Robin, in Northridge, Calif. Marquis Jackson is a senior defensive end at Portland State.

Q: How big a role did football play in your childhood?

A: All I did was play football. My dad taught me my whole life. We started playing as early as we could, at 8 years old, I think.

Q: And your dad was always your coach?

A: Yeah, unfortunately. (Laughs.)

Q: Why unfortunately?

A: You could never leave stuff on the field. It was always taken home, nag you over the same stuff. Be all upset all day because you messed up.

Q: Was he harder on you guys than the other kids? A: Oh, yeah. But it made us better players. He knew what he wanted, and he knew what he wanted out of us. He wanted us to be great, and he wanted us to be better than him. It worked.

Q: You started your college career at Southern California. Did you always want to stay near home?

A: I wanted to go to Miami. They had the visors, everything was cool about them. I watched Willis (McGahee). I really wanted to go there, but they never offered me. I was going to go to Fresno State, but then I decided to go to SC. It was fun. I really went there because I wanted to stay close to my mom.

Q: How difficult was it, then, to make the decision to transfer to Tennessee in 2010 when USC was placed under NCAA sanctions?

A: It wasn't that hard, because I had already been in college two years. I needed to go away and live something. Don't need to be under my mom my whole life. It was like, "Let me go away and see." I did spring ball. I knew about the sanctions, but I waited until after spring ball because I wanted to see how I did there before I even thought about leaving. It just wasn't in the cards to stay.

Q: Not many guys get to play in two major-college conferences. So, which conference is better: Pac-12 or the SEC?

A: I always said that the Pac-12 was better, but playing in both of them, I got to see that the SEC is definitely the best. It's just different. You've got Oregon offenses (in the Pac-12), with the skinny linemen hurrying up. There isn't too much pro-style. The SEC is all run it down your face.

Q: How have you been trying to learn from the veterans on the Broncos' defensive line?

A: I just sit in the corner and be quiet, have my ears open. They've been doing it a long time, so I just watch what they do and see if I can work it into my game somehow.

Q: What are your plans for your first NFL offseason? A: This year I'll probably go back and try to finish school. You learn a lot in the NFL, and one of those things is to go back to school. I don't have too much left. I have about a year left, so I want to finish that up as fast as I can, really push myself. Plus I'll train out there, work out there. And then I'll go to California — those are really the only two places I go. Knoxville and California. My mom's out there, my grandma, my dog.

Beating the Odds

Stuart Zaas DenverBroncos.com September 7, 2012

Linebacker Steven Johnson wasn't offered a college scholarship, but overcame the odds to make the team's opening-day roster as a college free agent.

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. – As a senior in high school, he led the state with 123 tackles. As a senior in college, he led the Big 12 with 124 stops. He attended the NFL Scouting Combine and sat in front of the television waiting to see which NFL team he’d suit up for on Sundays. On the surface, linebacker Steven Johnson followed the same path to the NFL as the majority of his counterparts. A deeper look shows that Johnson’s path, however, was far from typical. After leading the state of Pennsylvania with 123 tackles in 2005, Johnson received offers to schools that included West Chester University, Millersville, the University of Delaware and Villanova. Wanting to play at the Division I level, Johnson decided to enroll in prep school at Wyoming Prep Seminary in Wilkes-Barre, Pa., with the hopes of eventually landing a scholarship offer from a Division I program. There, he tore his ACL and MCL just four games into the 2006 season and any chances of a scholarship offer seemed to disappear. After the injury, coaches told him his chances of playing again were slim and recommended he reset his goals to the Division II or Division I-AA level. “I had to spend a lot of time rehabbing,” Johnson said. “My trainers initially told me they didn’t know if I could play the game again, but I fought back. My dad went and found the best doctor he could find and I’ve been good ever since.” Instead of listening to the advice of his former coach and trainers, Johnson pulled out his computer and emailed the recruiting coordinator at Kansas that he’d been in touch with before the injury. “Kansas was the only school that gave me an opportunity to walk on,” he said. “If it wasn’t for them, I don’t know where I would be. I’m just grateful that it worked out the way it did.” With Kansas being the only Division I school to show interest, Johnson enrolled in classes in Lawrence, Kan., and spent the 2007 season rehabbing his knee injury. Cleared to re-join the team on the field in 2008, Johnson appeared in two games for the Jayhawks as a freshman in 2008. As his knee and confidence grew stronger, so did his impact on the field. Johnson played 10 games and made nine tackles as a reserve linebacker and special teams contributor as a sophomore. It was during that sophomore season that Kansas Head Coach Mark Mangino pulled Johnson aside just before the scholarship deadline and told the walk-on that he’d be put on scholarship. "It was right in the middle of practice, so everybody was clapping with joy and tapping me on the helmet to say congratulations,” Johnson told the Big 12 Conference website. “I just wanted to take a second and cry but it was during practice and we were about to start hitting, so I knew I had to snap out of it." Not having to worry about how he and his family would continue paying for college, Johnson was able to focus on football. It paid off, as Johnson continued to climb up the depth chart and emerged as a starter when the 2010 season came around. He opened all 12 games for the Jayhawks and led the team with 95 tackles. The next season, he was elected a team captain and registered double-digit tackles in 8-of-12 games to lead the Big 12 with 124 on the season. Hoping to continue his career at the next level, Johnson eagerly awaited an invitation to the combine. When it didn’t come, Johnson decided to take matters into his own hands again and contact the combine officials. “I guess I was originally on the bubble,” he said. “I was calling them just to see if I was going to get invited. They said they’d get back to me and they did – I was one of the guys that had an opportunity to go.” Despite his success at Kansas, Johnson wasn’t sure when – or if – he’d be drafted. As in the past, he was just hoping that somebody would give him a chance to prove himself. “I originally thought I was going to get drafted,” Johnson said. “But, the chips fell the way they did and I was undrafted. It was just more of a chip on my shoulder.” As late rounds of the draft came and went, Johnson remained on his couch, still without a team. At the end of the draft, Johnson’s phone finally rang. And it kept ringing. Johnson estimated that around 10 different teams called him in the hopes of signing him as a college free agent. While he was mulling those offers, his phone rang again. This time it was his former roommate and teammate at Kansas, Broncos cornerback Chris Harris. “I called him and told him the coaches wanted him and they were interested in him,” Harris said. “I knew they would give him an opportunity to come in and make the team. That’s all you can ask for.” Harris had been in Johnson’s position a year ago when he joined Denver as a college free agent. Harris not only played his way onto the team’s opening-day roster, but emerged as the club’s nickel back midway through the season. Harris’ success gave Johnson the confidence that he’d get a fair chance to showcase his abilities in Denver. “Chris told me, ‘Hey, you need to come here,’ and basically sold the whole Broncos organization – they have great facilities, great people and great coaches,” Johnson said. “He knew that I’d have an opportunity to make it here, so I went with that.” After signing with Denver, Johnson still faced an uphill battle to make it to Week 1 wearing orange and blue. Throughout training camp, Johnson turned to Harris for guidance. “Just come in, do good on special teams and always be a high-effort guy and they should be able to see,” Harris said of his advice to Johnson. “As a veteran guy now that has the experience of being an undrafted guy, I try to stay in all those guys’ ears and give them motivation. You do start to wonder, ‘Am I going to be able to be here,’ with the numbers and stuff. It’s hard sometimes.” But, given the opportunity, Johnson took full advantage of all his reps in practice and in the team’s preseason games and did what he’s done his entire career – produce. He led the Broncos with 15 defensive tackles and tied for the team lead with three tackles for a loss and one forced fumble in the preseason. Johnson added one sack and also contributed on special teams, making one tackle in a role that he knew would be vital to his chances of making the roster. “I felt like I was getting better,” Johnson said of his preseason play. “Going along during the preseason, I felt like each and every game, I was trying to improve on certain things, such as moving quicker on drops and reads and stuff like that. Toward the last game, I felt pretty comfortable out there. I was making some plays. I’m just looking forward to keep getting better.” While he felt good about the way the preseason went, Johnson knew that he still faced long odds to make the 53-man roster. “When you’re an undrafted free agent, you feel good, but at the same time, it’s like ‘I don’t know,’” he said. “You never know what can happen in this business. I felt like I went out there and put my best foot forward.” Denver wrapped up its preseason on Thursday, Aug. 30 and had to cut its 75-man roster down to 53 by 5 p.m. MT the next day. As the hours passed between the final snap of Thursday’s game and the cut deadline, Johnson nervously awaited his fate. “I was listening to a lot of music, sitting in my room, just staring at the ceiling,” he said. “Friday, when we got here, I was just scared. My heart was beating the whole time. I didn’t want to look anybody in the eye.” Of the 470 undrafted players that signed with NFL teams immediately following the draft, only 42 made opening-day rosters. One of those 42 was Johnson, as he helped extend the Broncos’ streak of college free agents making the active roster out of training camp to nine consecutive seasons. When he found out he’d made the roster, he immediately called his dad, who had sacrificed financially to help Johnson earn his opportunity as a walk-on at Kansas. “Dad got the first call,” Johnson said. “He was excited at first, and then he started crying. I was like ‘Man, my dad’s crying.’ It was weird. I’ve never seen my dad literally cry, but he was very excited. And I called my mom, and she was very excited, and my whole family found out. They’re just very excited with joy that I made my dream come true.” Harris learned of the news when he arrived at the facility Friday and saw Johnson’s nameplate still hanging above his locker. “It’s very hard to make the team as an undrafted player,” Harris said. “So I was very excited for him.” Each step in his career has been difficult for Johnson. At any point, his career could have come to an end due to a lack of opportunities. Now that he’s made the initial roster, Johnson knows that nothing is guaranteed. “I know when I got on scholarship, my roommate said, ‘Oh, you got on scholarship, now you have everything to lose,’" Johnson recalled. "I was like, ‘I felt like I just got so much more to gain, I just want to keep going.’ Now that I’m on the team, I just want to keep going up from here. My goal is to be a Pro Bowl linebacker one day and (Linebackers) Coach (Richard) Smith is a great coach. He’s busting my chops every day trying to get me right.” Although his path to the NFL was unconventional, Johnson continued to overcome obstacles and earn his roster spot. “I couldn’t stop smiling,” Johnson said. “I kind of did it again, you know. Being a college free agent is kind of like being a walk-on. I beat those odds twice.” Throughout his life, he’s taken his chances and run with them. There’s no reason to think that trend won’t continue at his highest level yet. “I used to think it didn’t get any better than Friday nights,” Johnson said. “Then when I went to college, it was all about Saturday. And now it’s Sunday, so I’m like, ‘Oh, maybe Sunday is better.’ I’m just excited for the opportunity.”

Notebook: Leonhard Happy to be Back

Tyler Everett DenverBroncos.com September 5, 2012

Safety Jim Leonhard is excited for his return to the field Sunday night against the Pittsburgh Steelers, the Broncos name their captains and Derek Wolfe anticipates his NFL debut.

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. – Jim Leonhard doesn’t know exactly what his role will be in the Broncos’ season opener Sunday night against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Regardless, being on the field for kickoff will be a special personal moment for Leonhard, who spent the offseason recovering from a knee injury he suffered last December. “It’s been a rough end to the last couple of years for me,” Leonhard said. “To get back on that field, it’s going to mean a lot to me, in a live, regular-season game. I’m excited. I don’t care what my job is, however many snaps I’m going to get this week, it means a lot to me to get back on the field.” Leonhard, who arrived in Denver after compiling 309 tackles and 60 starts during seven seasons with the , and New York Jets, brings a veteran safety presence to the Broncos’ defense. Having played with elite defenders like Darrelle Revis of the Jets and Ed Reed and Ray Lewis of the Ravens, Leonhard knows what it takes for a defense to be successful. He said that the best defenses win most of their battles before the ball is ever snapped. “I think the biggest thing is just emphasizing communication and pre-snap recognition,” Leonhard said. “All the great defenses I’ve been around have had that. Sometimes it takes young guys a little bit of time to realize that that’s where the game is won and lost. It’s not just the Xs and Os of what your job is, it’s recognizing something pre-snap and then going and making a play. Especially on the back end, you have a chance to really change the game.” Leonhard sees the potential for a strong season out of the Broncos’ D. “There’s a ton of talent, there’s a lot of young talent on this team and you add that to the guys up front that can just flat out get to the quarterback,” Leonhard said. “That’s a dangerous thing, especially this year hoping that (quarterback) Peyton (Manning) can do his job and put some points on the board. You get ahead of some teams early and force them into obvious passing situations and kind of let this defense loose, I think we can do some good things.” In addition to a solid cast of teammates including perennial Pro Bowl cornerback Champ Bailey, Leonhard has enjoyed working with Defensive Coordinator Jack Del Rio. “It’s always great to have a coordinator with a ton of experience,” Leonhard said. “He’s a guy who had been a head coach, so he understands both sides of the ball and how they work off of each other. I think his experience is going to be huge for this group this year.” With a promising defense and an offense led by one of the top quarterbacks in league history in Manning, the Broncos enter 2012 with high expectations. Leonhard wouldn’t have it any other way. “I would rather be nowhere else than here,” Leonhard said. “You want high expectations as a player. You don’t want to go into a season with the media saying, ‘If they’re good, they’ll be 7-9 or 8-8.’ You want high expectations. You want to be able to go into a season knowing that you’re going to make a run. And we feel that way here. Obviously you have to get it done. We have a tough schedule. You take them one at a time but we feel like we’re going to be in this thing at the end.” FIVE BRONCOS HONORED AS CAPTAINS Linebacker Wesley Woodyard prides himself on setting a good example for his teammates. For the fourth time in his career, dating back to his rookie season, Woodyard was again recognized for his leadership with the honor of being one of the Broncos’ five team captains. “I just want to continue to uphold what a true Bronco is,” Woodyard said. “That’s going out there, playing hard and being a true leader.” “It’s somebody that’s always out there putting it all out on the field,” Woodyard continued. “Every play, giving it their all, leading by example, doing the right things every time. You can’t have a bad day and you can’t have a day off.” The Broncos’ other 2012 captains are quarterback Peyton Manning, guard Chris Kuper, cornerback Champ Bailey and defensive end Elvis Dumervil. Running back Willis McGahee will serve as an interim captain while Kuper recovers from injury. Bailey and Kuper are both entering at least their third seasons as Broncos captains, and Manning was a captain his last 10 seasons in Indianapolis. Rookie defensive lineman Derek Wolfe said Dumervil was named a captain for the first time thanks to his work ethic and willingness to give advice to younger players. “He does all the little things right,” Wolfe said. “He plays hard and doesn’t complain. Whenever you need advice, he gives it to you. He’s one of the best leaders I’ve ever been around.” WOLFE READY FOR DEBUT Wolfe’s been anticipating his NFL debut, which kicks off Sunday night against the Pittsburgh Steelers, for as long as he can remember. “I’ve been preparing a long time for this,” Wolfe said. “My whole life, I’ve been preparing for (Sunday). Obviously, (it’s against) Pittsburgh. I grew up 45 minutes from Pittsburgh, so it’s going to be a fun game.” Wolfe’s rise to the top of the depth chart at defensive end before his first game as a rookie is something a lot of players would take pride in. But Wolfe expects himself to be much more than just a placeholder along the defensive line. “Now it really counts,” Wolfe said. “We’ve seen flashes of how good we really can be, so now we can get it going for four quarters and see how great we can actually be out there. I expect to be the best, and I demand nothing but greatness of myself. Being anything less than a contributor is a failure for me.” Though he plays alongside a handful of veterans in tackles Ty Warren and Justin Bannan and fellow end Elvis Dumervil, Wolfe knows that their advice will only take him so far on game day. “A couple guys have said something to me, but what kind of advice can they give you?” Wolfe said. “Just go out there and play football, that’s all they can tell you.”

Manning visits UT for ceremony

Robert Vogt UT Daily Beacon October 22, 2012

Nobody understands the phrase "Vol for Life" as well as Peyton Manning.

In front of a crowd of nearly 1,000 students and alumni on Friday afternoon, Manning and the chairs of three different senior gift committees dedicated Peyton Manning Pass and its new look.

Senior gift committees from 2007, 2008 and 2009 all worked together to add two orange and white checkerboard end zones on either end of the street, with a large Power-T in the middle.

The Vol Walk, a cherished game day tradition, calls Peyton Manning Pass home.

"This street's meant so much to me," Manning said. "I took a lot of pride in making this walk for Saturday games and the fact that four different groups of seniors have given money, given funds back to paint it just like the end zone ... it really says a lot about what UT is about: giving back to the community and embracing our university."

The spirit of embracing the university was largely present on Friday, as many alumni turned out to see UT football's most famous quarterback.

"My son is a big Peyton fan and he's number 18 on his tackle football team. He picked 18 because of Peyton," said Ashley Hamilton, an alumna who graduated the same year as Manning. "The whole new generation loves him. (My son) and all his friends are Peyton Manning fans."

Chancellor Jimmy Cheek was on hand to share the history of the street. Originally called Yale Avenue, the university decided to rename it in Manning's honor the year after he graduated. The first plans dictated that it would be known as Peyton Manning Drive, but an architecture student at UT suggested the city call it Peyton Manning Pass instead as a tribute to Manning's status as UT's leading passer on the field.

"And therefore we have Peyton Manning Pass as a result of one of our strong students saying 'this isn't right, we need to do it differently.' That's the kind of students we have at the University of Tennessee," Cheek said.

After Cheek's introduction, Manning stepped to the podium amidst raucous cheering from a crowd that took up most of the street and the nearby parking lot. He shared memories of the Vol Walk when he was a player.

"It really was special to me. I remember we started from the practice facility, I always stopped to hug my dad and give my mom a kiss right up there on the north side of this street and then started the walk down here, and the band would be down here, the cheerleaders would be cheering. ... I got more pumped up for the walk, just as much as I did for the opening kickoff," Manning said. "The fact that they renamed the street in my name, and the fact that these seniors have made it look just like the end zones, it really is special. It's a very humbling honor for me."

Manning joined Nathan and Katie Zipper, Adam Brown, Alex Hanson and Taylor Reynolds, the chairs of the 2007, 2008 and 2009 senior gift committees, to cut the ribbon. Mary Holtman-Reed, director of alumni programs, along with UT System President Joe DiPietro and Athletic Director Dave Hart joined Manning. Afterwards, he ventured into the crowd to sign autographs and speak with fans.

Hannah Price, freshman in nursing and self-proclaimed diehard Manning fan, managed to get his autograph on her hat.

"I felt like people were pushing, I literally was like shoving my hat in his face, I felt bad but ... I got the hat signed," she laughed.

Peyton Manning is changing the Broncos’ culture

Amalie Benjamin The Boston Globe October 5, 2012

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — In the notebooks that are beginning to stack up at Brock Osweiler’s house, there is a small mark next to some of the entries. The rookie backup quarterback is doing his best to learn from everyone — his head coach, his position coaches, his teammates — so he makes sure to write down just about everything.

But one person’s advice gets special treatment. One person’s advice gets a “P” notation.

“I mean, shoot, it’s maybe the greatest quarterback of all time,” Osweiler said.

That’s what Peyton Manning inspires around the Denver locker room, his new refuge after 14 Hall of Fame years in Indianapolis and an ugly divorce from the Colts. He makes his teammates stand a little straighter, study a little harder, and take copious notes.

“Every once in a while, he’ll say a specific thing about certain coverage or a certain play, maybe how you should read the play out,” Osweiler said. “And if it’s something specific coming from Peyton, I just make sure I put a little ‘P’ next to it so I know it’s him.

“Five, six, seven years down the road, when I look back at my notes when we’re getting ready to play a certain team, it’s like, hey, this is what Peyton said to do.”

The veneration is clear. Playing next to, or behind, Manning means something to his teammates, means hope for the postseason and a need to work harder. It means far more than playing with Tim Tebow ever did.

“It changes that attitude,” said John Elway, another Hall of Fame quarterback who is Denver’s executive vice president of football operations. “It gives hope to the other guys on that football team.

“They have a chance to compete for world championships, and I think, as a player, that’s what you want to be, is part of an organization that has that goal. And Peyton gives that. As [coach] John Fox has said, Peyton raises all boats.”

It wasn’t just any quarterback the Broncos signed in the offseason, after all. “Most quarterbacks,” said receiver Brandon Stokley, “don’t carry that aura.”

Like a second coach

When Willis McGahee reflects on the last time the Broncos faced the Patriots — a humbling 45-10 loss in the second round of the 2011 playoffs — he notes the differences this time around.

There is a different work ethic, a different focus. There is, also, “our El Capitan, Peyton Manning out there,” McGahee said. “I think he’s given us an edge.”

He has also helped produce that new work ethic.

“It’s just a real sense of accountability,” said tight end Jacob Tamme, who played with Manning for four seasons in Indianapolis. “Everybody wants to do their job to the highest level. Nobody prepares harder than Peyton, so it helps everybody sort of step their game up.”

There are player-driven film sessions in which the Broncos watch as Manning runs the remote and offers his take, culled from thousands of plays, thousands of situations. There are moments in practice when Fox is silent, when Manning is the one calling out to receivers, cajoling them and positioning them.

They see the work. They see the desire. Neither was dimmed by the year off due to injury.

“I still have a passion for it,” said Manning, who has had a series of surgical procedures on his neck. “I still enjoy the preparation, the work of it, the offseason, the Mondays, the Tuesdays, the game planning, I still enjoy that.”

It shows.

“I’ve learned from him how to not waste a single minute,” Osweiler said. “He comes in, and from the time that he gets to the building to the time he leaves, it’s all work. He’s not wasting any time.

“In his free time, he’s breaking down film, he’s working on the game plan, and as a young quarterback, that’s pretty cool to see what it takes to be successful at this level.”

“Oh, yeah,” McGahee said. “It changes a culture.”

Pressure to win

It’s not often that Stokley sees a hit to his quarterback. He’s usually facing away, concerned with running his own route, getting to his own spot. He saw the first one, though, a body slam on Manning by the Seahawks in the second exhibition game. And then he saw the standing ovation.

“What are they cheering so loud for?” Stokley wondered.

Then he got it, realizing the crowd had picked up that it was Manning’s first hit since the surgeries. It was a moment that might have made the Broncos wince. No longer.

“It’s kind of one of those things where you don’t hold your breath anymore,” Stokley said.

Now, the Broncos are more concerned with winning than the health of their seemingly fragile quarterback. Because with the signing of Manning came pressure, to continue the team’s upward trajectory, to justify the signing. They are off to only a 2-2 start as they play the Patriots in Foxborough Sunday.

“I think the most important thing for me was, OK, Peyton’s here, now we’ve got to win some football games,” Elway said. “Because I think everybody was excited about him being here, but we have to win some football games.”

Despite the injury history, despite the questions, Elway makes it clear that it was “an easy decision for us.” The team didn’t feel it was going out on a limb, even as it shed a quarterback in Tebow who had led the team to a first-round postseason win over the Steelers.

The Broncos — from owner Pat Bowlen and Elway on down — thought it was the right direction for the franchise, to get it back to the heights it had experienced back when Elway was leading the charge. Still, there were no guarantees that Peyton would be Peyton — and the concerns were exacerbated in Week 2 by three interceptions in the first half against the Falcons, by a few passes that fluttered.

“I think there’s always a risk,” Elway said. “You never knew exactly how, physically, he was going to respond. But any time you make a decision, there’s a calculated risk with it. It was a risk that we were willing to take.”

Or, as team president Joe Ellis put it, “I wouldn’t call it risky. I would call it smart.”

A lot is expected

Admittedly, the Manning-Denver marriage is not destined to be a long one.

Manning, after all, is 36 years old and in his 15th season in the NFL. But he believes there is more football to be played, more titles to be won.

If anyone can understand that, it’s his boss. Elway, after all, won his Super Bowls in the final two seasons of his career, when he was 37 and 38. “Obviously, physically you can’t do what you used to do in your mid-20s compared to your mid-30s,” Elway said. “There’s a physical balance that’s not quite the same.

“But the years of experience over the 10 years more than compensate for any type of loss of physical ability that you may have. And so I think mentally you overcome that.

“But whether you’re 25 or 35, to win the world championship, you have to have a good football team.”

That was what Elway tried to create, with Manning and for Manning.

There is talk of a “different breed of guys,” as cornerback Champ Bailey put it, different from the ones that ended the 2011 season in New England by not putting forth their best effort.

Now, they want to do more. They want to be more. They see a player with the ability to “elevate everybody in your organization and elevate the stature of your organization,” as Ellis said.

So they watch as Manning clicks the remote in film sessions. They listen to him talking through footwork after throws in practice. And they take notes, scribbling down his words on lines that will be referenced for years.

“It’s just a couple right now,” Osweiler said, of how many notebooks he has already gone through. “It’s early in the season. But the pages are filling up.” Broncos Q&A: Linebacker Joe Mays glad to be able to return to Denver

Lindsay H. Jones The Denver Post September 16, 2012

Editor's note: Each Sunday throughout the season, The Denver Post's Broncos reporters help readers get to know the players on a more personal level.

Joe Mays was sitting on an airplane parked at a gate at the New Orleans airport last March when he learned he was coming home. Mays was in the middle of what was supposed to be a two-city NFL free-agent tour, with stops in New Orleans and Indianapolis. But when Denver called, those courtships were over. Mays wanted to remain a Bronco, and the Broncos wanted Mays to remain their starting middle linebacker. Now in his third year with the Broncos, Mays has developed from a special-teams player into one of the vocal leaders of the defense.

Q: Take me back to March and the free-agent process. How stressful was that time? Were you worried you might not end up back here?

A: It wasn't stressful at all. It was kind of fun. I was open to just about anything. In the back of my mind, I knew I wanted to be a Bronco. For my wife, it was (stressful). I had to make sure that I stayed strong for her. For a while, I thought I was the wife, she was the player, because she was stressing about where I'd play.

Q: Still, it must have been a relief to get that call from the Broncos.

A: Oh, yeah. For the first time since I've been in the league, I was able to buy a house. You just feel stable. Now you're able to settle down, enjoy your life. I plan on being here for a while.

Q: How often do you reflect on the trade with the Eagles that sent you to the Broncos in the first place, back during training camp in 2010?

A: It was the best thing that ever happened to me. If I would have stayed there, I wouldn't have made the team. I would have been cut. I came in as a special-teams guy, but I was able to show them what I can do and work my way up the ladder. It was definitely a blessing. At first I didn't want to accept it. But after coming out here, it was definitely the best thing.

Q: As a starting linebacker, your on-field role has changed. Has anything about the way you approach the game changed as well?

A: As far as my attitude, my attitude stays the same. I'm always coming out to prove to everyone and to myself that I can make this team and be a starter. Q: I doubt that you are harder on yourself than other players are, but you are always brutally honesty publicly about the way you play, good or bad. Why is that?

A: It's being accountable to yourself, your teammates and letting the truth show. You guys watched it. No reason to sugarcoat. I like people to be blunt with me. I'd rather be blunt than sugarcoat anything.

Q: What was it like having officials from your alma mater, North Dakota State, here watching practice recently?

A: That was my athletic director. It reminded me of when I first got into college. He set me straight on my grades, made sure I was eligible to play football. It made me think about where I came from. When I got there, I was a boy. I grew into a man, and now I'm in the position I'm in.

Q: How much pride did you take in watching your school beat Colorado State last weekend?

A: It was burning me that I couldn't drive up there, because it was right here in Colorado. The Bison, they did what I was telling everyone they were going to do. You hear guys talking about SEC schools, the Pac-12 or whatever. I felt great I was able to brag about my I-AA school and how good we're doing.

McGahee keeps proving the doubters wrong

Arnie Stapleton Associated Press October 4, 2012

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (AP) — Willis McGahee wasn't supposed to make it to the NFL, much less pinball his way through defenses for a decade.

So said the naysayers after he tore three ligaments in his left knee in his final college game at Miami and again and again as he piled on the yards and years.

McGahee is still proving the doubters wrong 10 years later. He just recorded his 32nd 100-yard rushing game, more than any active NFL running back and one for each candle that will soon decorate his birthday cake, plus a spare for good measure.

"My whole career people said I'm slow, I'm old, I can't do this or I can't do that. I use that for fuel," McGahee said. "You tell me I can't do something, my goal is to prove you wrong."

McGahee joked this week that he quit counting at age 29.

Thirty-something tailbacks are rare in a league that spits out ball carriers after just more than two seasons on average, and rarer still are those as productive as McGahee after 30 trips around the sun.

McGahee is only the 29th running back in league history to top 1,000 yards in his 30s and if he does it again this season he'll join just a dozen others — half of whom are in the Hall of Fame — who've accomplished the feat multiple times.

Since he first donned the orange and navy uniform in 2011, McGahee has topped 100 yards rushing nine times, tied with Houston's Arian Foster — who is five years his junior — for the most in the league.

McGahee sat out his first NFL season in Buffalo before a solid career with the Bills and Baltimore Ravens, where he was Ray Rice's backup, thus saving wear and tear on his body, which paid off in a big way in Denver last season.

He helped the Broncos lead the league in rushing by gaining 1,199 yards and earning his second Pro Bowl appearance, a testament to how well he adapted to quarterback Tim Tebow and coach John Fox dusting off the old read-option at midseason. This year, it's Peyton Manning stuffing the ball into McGahee's belly or throwing it in between the 2 and the 3 on his chest, and he's even more productive, averaging 81.25 yards rushing a game, up from 79.9 a year ago. He's already scored three touchdowns, one shy of his total from last year, and he also caught a 2-point conversion.

Bill Belichick, whose New England Patriots host the Broncos on Sunday in a pivotal game between 2-2 teams, certainly sees the McGahee of old.

"Real talented player coming out of Miami. Big, strong, fast guy that has good run instincts and is tough. I think you still see those qualities," Belichick said. "You see him running over people and breaking tackles. He has good run vision and can find the holes and has good patience, knows how to use his blocking when he gets in the open field or when guys start to tackle him, he does a good job of breaking tackles, getting his pads down, running with power.

"And he's elusive in the secondary. So, he continues to perform well. I have a lot of respect for Willis."

So does Broncos running backs coach Eric Studesville. He was McGahee's position coach in Buffalo from 2004-06 and was instrumental in bringing him to Denver last year.

Studesville said he sees an even better running back in Denver than he had in Buffalo.

"The core things that he is and had at that time he still has now: a tremendous work ethic, a tremendous passion for the game, incredibly competitive personality," Studesville said. "And all those things haven't diminished with time. They've stayed the same."

What is different, Studesville said, is his leadership, as evidenced by his teammates voting him a captain this season.

"He's much more vocal, he's much more out front," Studesville said. "When I had him in Buffalo, he just kind of came and worked every day. It's difficult for a young player to be a leader, but he's not a young player anymore. He's developed leadership qualities that have been good for us."

That's taken time for McGahee, a gregarious personality, sure, but one who prefers to lead by example.

"I'm one of those guys, if you ask for the help, I'll give it you. But if you don't, I won't," McGahee said. "You know, certain running backs don't want to get help from another running back that's in front of them. They try to do it on their own. That's what I did. So, you can't take it to heart if they don't ask." Ronnie Hillman, a rookie from San Diego State in the mold of who is learning that at this level the holes close lickety-split, certainly isn't shy about hitting him up for advice.

"He'll tell me what I'm doing wrong or how to look at this play the right way," said Hillman, who also learns plenty by just watching McGahee go to work: "You get the same result out of him every day. Just watching him go to work every day, you see why he's a 10-year vet."

With an average pro career of about 2½ years, most running backs don't stick around the league long enough to become locker room leaders like McGahee has.

"It's a testament to the physical condition that he's in, and I think there's a burning desire to compete that's inside there, too," Studesville said. "He loves this game."

That passion rubs off.

"He makes coaching fun," Studesville said. "Because he's what you want. He's what you want as far as a guy that gives it to you physically all the time and mentally, too. I love coaching this guy." Miller Named Colorado Athlete of the Year

Sam Davis DenverBroncos.com June 15, 2012

DENVER -- On Friday, linebacker Von Miller added another award to his resume.

The 2011 Defensive Rookie of the Year was honored as the Denver Athletic Club's Colorado Athlete of the Year at the 37th Annual Awards Banquet Friday night in downtown Denver. He joined a few former Broncos who have also received the award, including John Elway, Champ Bailey and Rod Smith.

“It’s an award that came from here in Colorado,” Miller said. “It’s always great to get awards and accolades but I think it shows the type of team we had and the type of teammates and coaches that I had. I’m very appreciative to have those guys and I’m very appreciative for the award.”

In his rookie season, Miller tallied 64 tackles with 11.5 sacks and two forced fumbles en route to a Pro Bowl selection.

The former Texas A&M Aggie and his family attended the ceremony, where he mingled with some of the guests and took pictures. He said the award is special to him because of where it comes from – a state where he’s lived for barely a year, but one he now calls home.

“It’s special coming from Colorado, being a Texas guy,” Miller said. “It feels great to have this type of impact on the community.”

Another man was honored Friday night that Denver Broncos fans are very familiar with. Dave Logan, “The Voice Of The Broncos”, was given the Career Achievement Award. Logan played in the NFL for nine seasons (1976-1984) and has been the play-by-play commentator for the Broncos for more than 15 years. He and former Major League Baseball player are the only two athletes to be drafted by the NBA, NFL, and MLB.

Like Miller, Logan credited his teammates for the accolade.

“To me, it signifies that I’ve been blessed in so many ways,” Logan said. “I’ve had such great support staff, whether as an athlete, a broadcaster, a coach, you simply have to step back and acknowledge that you couldn’t achieve those things by yourself without great people around you. It allows me to take that step back and acknowledge how much support I’ve had.”

Logan spoke of the Miller as a player with incredible potential who he looks forward to watching for years to come. “I’m excited about Von’s career," Logan said. "Such a great player as a rookie. I think he has that kind of ability to turn into a once-in-a-decade or once-in-a-15- year player. I’m anxious to see him continue to develop, but what a great, great player in his first year.

The Athlete of the Year ceremony also honored six Denver Athletic Club athletes and the Denver Post/9News High School Student Athletes of the Year Q&A With Rahim Moore

Tyler Everett DenverBroncos.com October 20, 2012

DenverBroncos.com recently caught up with the second-year safety and discussed his plans for the bye week, his thoughts on the first six games of 2012 and his goals for the rest of the season.

What are your plans for the bye week? “Probably head back to California, see my mom and family. Just hang out with the family and rest. Mainly I’m going to look at a lot of plays that I need to do to make myself better, to help this team. Coach Garnes, he made a cutup for me. I’m going to relax and get some down time, get some me time as well.”

How excited are you to spend some time with your family? “I see them a lot because they come to my home games a lot. They’ve only missed one, and that was the New England game. I see them, but I told them when I come out there, we’re going to hang out. But I need to get some me time.”

How much will you be able to unwind and relax during the time off? “You never can, but at the same time, you get some down time to where you feel like, I’m regular now. I can actually go out and hang out. I can actually sleep in and not wake up at six in the morning. I can wake up at 10 if I want. It’s a good thing. I think it’s much needed. As a coaching staff, as an organization, we all need it. That way, when you come back to the facilities, you miss football. This is our job and it’s what we love, but at the same time, we have a life outside of this.”

How would you evaluate your performance so far this season? “It’s been good. It’s way better than I was last year. Overall, just my production and how I’m developing. This is only my (12th) game (as a starter), so I’m seeing progress every week. There’s some play out there that I left and my name is still on. I’m just continuing to get better, but at the same time I’m not satisfied. I’m playing real good, I’m showing up in the run game and the pass game, so I’m doing my job.”

Do you feel like the game has slowed down for you from your first to your second year? “It’s very true, but it’s only true if you put in the work. You have to watch film, you have to give the game everything it deserves. It’s going to be a lot of long nights, early mornings, and if you’re willing to do that, then the game will slow down as much.”

What have you been able to learn from your film study this season? “Just how comfortable I am. In the run game, in the pass game, the way I’m disguising and helping those guys up front get cover sacks. Also, the film study I’m putting in is showing. I haven’t made any big pick-sixes yet, but I’ve made a lot of plays that contributed to the team for us to win.”

In what areas are you looking to improve throughout the rest of the season? “Just everything. I don’t ever underestimate this or that. I’ll get better at everything. I make sure I look at myself to see what I can do to help.”

How would you assess the team’s play through its first six games? “It’s been good. It’s been kind of up and down, but at the same time, we finished on an up note, which was this past Monday. I’m proud of where we are as a team. We never pointed the finger, we never doubted each other, we just got better. I’m excited, we have a big future. We come back from the bye week, they’re going to see a different team.”

How important is it to keep the positive momentum from the win over San Diego during and after the bye week? “Most definitely. That right there, that game is not only something else to see, it’s a good way to show people that you always play to the whistle is blown. The game is never over until the fat lady sings. That’s exactly what we did and I’m proud of everybody. That’s a great team effort.”

Denver Broncos training camp 'surreal' for QB Brock Osweiler

Doug Haller The Republic July 30, 2012

When a hectic pace slows in Englewood, Colo., where the Denver Broncos hold training camp, former Arizona State quarterback Brock Osweiler thinks back to where he was a year ago, and he can't help but be amazed.

"In fact, (former ASU receiver) Gerell Robinson is my roommate here at training camp, and we talk about that sometimes," Osweiler said in a telephone interview. "One year ago we were getting ready for fall camp at ASU, and there was so much anticipation for the season and we were talking Rose Bowl and there was a lot of excitement. But then that season flew by, the whole training process went by, and now I'm in football camp with the Denver Broncos. It's pretty surreal."

Surreal, indeed.

On April 27, the Broncos selected Osweiler, the only ASU quarterback to throw for 4,000 yards in a season, with the NFL draft's 57th pick. Since then, the quarterback has hung out with rapper Snoop Dogg, signed a four-year contract worth about $3.5 million and possibly jumped to No. 2 on Denver's depth chart behind Peyton Manning.

"I really couldn't be in a better situation," said Osweiler, who not only gets to learn from Manning but also Hall of Fame quarterback John Elway, who is the executive vice president of football operations with the Broncos. "I have absolutely no regret of leaving school (after his junior season). Just to be here, around my teammates and the coaching staff, and be a part of a great community, it truly is a great situation and I'm thankful for it."

Osweiler, 21, finished off-season team activities fourth on Denver's depth chart behind Manning, Adam Weber and Caleb Hanie, but on Sunday he earned reps with the second team. Osweiler realizes that the coaching staff likely is just testing him to see how much he can handle, but he embraces the opportunity. For now, he said his goal is to just learn the playbook and get as high on the depth chart as possible. He knows he has to be patient. He insists he's prepared.

"Fortunately, I've been in this situation before," Osweiler said. "My freshman year at ASU, we pretty much knew that Danny (Sullivan) was going to be the starter, so I just take those experiences and transfer them to here. I have been a backup before. I understand you still need to approach the game just like you were the starter. You need to get better every day. You need to study film. Your head needs to be in the playbook. Every rep counts at practice, even though you're not getting as many."

Manning, signed in the off-season, has been helpful. Osweiler said anytime he has a question, whether on the field or in a meeting, the four-time league MVP has been happy to answer. And if Manning sees something Osweiler is doing wrong, he doesn't hesitate to point it out. The biggest lesson the rookie has learned from Manning:

"How when you come to work, no matter what time you arrive in the morning and no matter what time you leave at night, you never waste a minute," Osweiler said. "He truly knows how to utilize every minute of the day."

Since draft day, Osweiler has had several "Welcome to the NFL" moments, but not all have come on the field. Earlier this month, he attended the ESPYs -- ESPN's annual awards show -- in Los Angeles. A couple of months earlier, he hung out with Snoop Dogg at a Lakers playoff game, his photo with the rap star popping up on the Internet.

"I was out in LA for the NFL Rookie Premiere, and my agent was able to get Trent Richardson, myself and (Robert Griffin III) tickets to the game,'' Osweiler said. "We bumped into Snoop Dogg, and he invited us up to his (luxury) box for the second half. Yeah, that was one of those (welcome) moments, but there have been a lot of things."

During camp, Osweiler will try to absorb as much as he can. Some NFL rookies say the biggest difference from college to pro is the game's speed. Osweiler disagrees.

"Without a doubt, it's all the information," he said. "The playbook is very thick. There are a lot of details that go into it. And those fine details that maybe you can kind of skip over in college and still be a great player, you can't skip over in this league and be successful. There's so much that goes into every play, whether it's a pass or a run that the quarterback needs to know. Once I get the mental game down, I think it'll be very similar to college."

5th Down: The Porter Profile

Connor Grant 303 Magazine September 5, 2012

Living in a state that ranks fourth in the nation in craft breweries, most people in Colorado hear “Porter” and their minds and taste buds immediately race to the dark, London-style beer, especially the Graham Cracker Porter from Denver Beer Company — it tastes like a campfire. But, raise your glasses Denver, there is a new Porter in town — Tracy Porter, starting cornerback for the Denver Broncos, Traditionally, one pairs porters with barbeque, but for best results, pair this Porter with Champ Bailey. Focused on basketball throughout high school, Porter wasn’t persuaded to come out for the football team until a weightlifting session his junior year. He stepped out on the football field for a 7 on 7 drill and never looked back, soon after accepting a scholarship from Indiana University. Following a decorated career at Indiana — including a first team all Big Ten season as a senior — Porter found himself high on many team’s wish lists for the 2008 NFL Draft. Mix in an excellent scouting combine highlighted by a 4.37 forty-yard dash time, (think Porsche 911 GT2 RS fast) and Porter raced up draft boards. After pre draft visits to every team in the NFC South, Porter nestled in with his family and friends at home in Louisiana for Draft Day. Early in the second round, Porter got a call from a 540 number. Sneaking away from the crowd focused intently on the TV, he took the call and found out he would be playing for his hometown team, the New Orleans Saints. Somehow, he managed not to tell anyone making for a huge surprise for everyone gathered in the room when the Saints announced their pick on TV. Following a successful four years with the Saints, including a and a semi- famous interception, Porter hit free agency looking for a change. As most of us know, the mountains have a strange gravity pulling people towards them. Paired with a future Hall of Fame quarterback, wildly devoted fans, Jack “Suit” Del Rio, and an opportunity to play alongside living legend Champ Bailey, he couldn’t have asked for a better situation. Porter fits in well to the Broncos secondary with his elite speed, tenacity, and crazy haircutsand should be the complement to Bailey that Denver has lacked in recent seasons. Off the field, Porter exemplifies character. In 2010, he founded the Pick 6 Foundation. Their mission aims to combat childhood obesity through developing healthy eating habits and an active lifestyle. Porter all too often saw kids inheriting poor eating habits from their elders then going home and playing video games rather than going outside and playing. The organization continues its work in Louisiana, but even in his short time here Porter has already made a trip to the Boys and Girls Club of San Luis Valley to speak with the kids about his mission. The foundation will continue to grow its reach and impact on Colorado communities in the coming months. Philanthropy aside, Porter prides himself on being devoted family man. Immediately after signing his rookie contract, he bought his mother a house. With the help of his brother and sister, they orchestrated a grand scheme to surprise her by driving through a neighborhood, pulling into a random driveway, then popping out of the front door. He is looking forward to enjoying more time outside with his wife and daughter taking advantage of Colorado’s sunny days and lack of humidity. His favorite part of the day is coming home to his daughter who runs to the door as soon as she hears him enter and clings tightly to his leg. This fall, Denver will have two Porters to love. Fun fact – Tracy Porter earned his degree from Indiana University in four years while playing football.

Matt Prater’s new Broncos deal a long way from nearly being cut by Shanahan

Jeff Legwold The Denver Post July 3, 2012

When the Broncos signed kicker Matt Prater to a new four-year, $13 million deal Monday, it was a testament to how far Prater has come in the NFL.

After all, he had been released by three different teams — Lions, Dolphins and Falcons — before he even arrived in Denver late in the 2007 season and there was a moment in the 2008 season when then-head coach Mike Shanahan was talking about bringing in a replacement if Prater missed any more gameday kicks.

Prater had a four-game stretch in 2008 — Prater’s first full season with the Broncos — when he missed at least one kick in each of four consecutive games in the season’s second half, including two against the Raiders when quarterback Jay Cutler went as far as to get in Prater’s face after one of the misses. By late November Prater had the rather quirky stat line of being 5-for-5 at that point on kicks of at least 50 yards, but a shaky 3-for-7 showing between 40-49 yards. Shanahan was then asked in the days leading up to an early December trip to New Jersey to face the Jets what could be done to repair Prater’s confidence for the final month of that season and said with a smile:

“Bring in another kicker.”

Shanahan added:

“That’s what you call tough love. You see if the mental gets better, and if it doesn’t, you’ve got somebody else in. It’s like he’s got the weight of the world on his shoulders. He’s just got to work through it.”

It appears Prater did just that.

Q&A with Brandon Stokley

Sam Davis DenverBroncos.com August 22, 2012

Wide receiver Brandon Stokley talks about reuniting with quarterback Peyton Manning, playing for Head Coach John Fox and his relationship with the Broncos’ young receivers.

Editor's Note: This Q&A was published in the 9/18 Gameday program, when the Broncos took on the Seattle Seahawks. ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- Wide receiver Brandon Stokley joined the Broncos in April after mulling over a possible retirement from the league. Now in his second stint in orange and blue, Stokley is excited to contribute to the new-look Denver offense. Is it crazy to you how you went from considering retirement to on the verge of entering your 14th NFL season? “It is. I was thinking about retiring not because I was ready to retire, it was more so because I didn’t think I’d get another opportunity from another team. Six months later, here I am practicing and playing with Peyton Manning again. It’s pretty remarkable to me.” What did it feel like to find out you’d have another shot at playing football? “I didn’t know if it was going to happen or not. When it finally did happen, it’s a great feeling. But you haven’t really accomplished anything yet until you make the team. Until you make the team, nothing’s accomplished.”

As a veteran, how do you use the preseason to carve out your role with the team? “The preseason for me is like a Super Bowl. Every game is like a Super Bowl. Every practice is like a Super Bowl. That’s my mindset going into this whole training camp and preseason games and the regular season. Every time I step out on the field, it’s a chance for me to try to make the team and earn a spot and earn some playing time.” What type of relationship do you have with the younger receivers on the squad? “I help those guys out as much as possible and try to help their careers. Anything that I can talk to them about and show them on the football field, I try to do. I remember when I was that age, older guys always helped me out and I appreciated it. I feel like that’s one of my roles now – to help them and help them grow in their careers. Whenever I’m done playing, it’d be nice to see them playing for 10, 12, 14 years in the NFL.”

Have you enjoyed playing with Manning again? “It doesn’t get better than that. I never thought I’d have that chance again when I left Indy and came here (in 2007). To have that opportunity to play with who I think is the best quarterback to ever play in the NFL, it’s special.”

Do the two of you still have the connection you shared in Indianapolis? “When you have that foundation that you spent four years building in Indy, you have that for life. When we get on the field, it’s one of those things where we know what the other is thinking. So it’s good to have that and I feel like we’ve picked up where we left off back in ’06.” How does a wide receiver go about earning Manning’s trust? “You have to prove it every day in practice, that you’re going to be in the right place at the right time in the right spots. When he gives you an opportunity and throws you the ball, you have to catch it and make plays. Really, the only way to earn that trust is to do it every day and be consistent. Whatever receiver it is, if you do that, you’ll get a lot of balls thrown your way and you’ll have a lot of opportunities to make plays.” What is your impression of Head Coach John Fox? “He’s great. He’s one of those coaches that if you go out there and you work hard and do the right things, he gives you a lot of respect as a player. I think all guys love playing for somebody like that.”

Is he a “player’s coach?” “I’d say absolutely. For me, it’s a guy that treats his players fair. If you go out there and work hard for him, he treats you like a man. I think guys respect that. That’s how Coach is.” What did you tell Manning when he visited Denver and stayed at your house? “I told him it’s a great organization with great fans. I’ve decided to make my home here permanently, so it’s a great place to live and raise a family. There are really no negatives about coming to play for the Denver Broncos and living here, playing for this organization. All around the board, for me, it’s the best in the NFL.” Do you think you had any influence on his decision? “I can’t take any credit (laughs). I don’t think so. But I just tried to lay it out there and let him know that it is a good place with good people here. If that helped at all -- I don’t really, probably think so. But I put my two cents in and was hoping it would help a little bit.” What are your goals for 2012? “For me, it’s just try to get better every day and try to help this football team win games. That’s what I’ve always been about -- winning games. I don’t set personal goals for stats like catches or yards for a season. Win games. Make the playoffs. Win a Super Bowl. That’s the ultimate. Those are pretty much always my goals and they stay the same every year.”

Broncos Q&A: Jacob Tamme climbing ladder to success

Lindsay H. Jones The Denver Post October 21, 2012

Jacob Tamme sat on his couch this month in Denver and watched as his hometown was at the center of American politics. Tamme was riveted by the vice presidential debate at Centre College in Kentucky. He posted pictures and messages on his Twitter account throughout the debate as only a homegrown son of Danville, Ky., could.

"Danville is one of those towns where it was considered a very special opportunity to host something like that. Everyone there kind of considers themselves the quintessential small-town American," Tamme said. "To be able to put on that sort of event, showcase the town a bit (was big). People in Danville love to show off the little slice of heaven they think they have."

Tamme wore blue and white in his college football career at Kentucky, and blue and white in his four seasons playing tight end in Indianapolis. He has traded the white for orange when he followed Peyton Manning to Denver in March. The move appears to be paying off, as he has 23 catches for 202 yards and a touchdown in six games.

Q: It looks like you had a sports-oriented childhood. What were your favorite memories of growing up in Danville?

A: Great place to grow up. Good people. Great high school athletics, a great rivalry with the crosstown team (Danville High) — the county school and the city school. One of those old-school, county-city rivalries. I went to Boyle County, the county school. Over the last 20 years, both teams have been among the best in the state, and a number of years where both teams won the state championship. Always been a neat thing to be a part of.

Q: So was it a foregone conclusion that you would wind up at the University of Kentucky?

A: That's a really long story, actually. I grew up a huge Kentucky fan. But the program was on probation my senior year. They had offered me a scholarship, but they took it away because they only had 15 instead of 25. I was playing wide receiver, and enough receivers had already committed. Long story short: A few months later, I was getting ready to make my visits to other schools when Rich Brooks got hired, and at the last minute, I got offered. It was never a foregone conclusion, because it really happened the last second, but it was one of those things where once you didn't have the chance anymore, once they pulled it back, I knew for sure that's where I wanted to go.

Q: As a kid who grew up loving UK, who were your favorite athletes?

A: Grew up emulating from Richie Farmer to Jeff Sheppard to Jamal Mashburn in the backyard, to Craig Yeast and Tim Couch, the football guys. I loved all those guys. I'll never forget my little-league coach at our banquet in like fourth grade. He told me that if I worked hard enough, I had a chance to be the next Tim Couch. I remember thinking, "Man, you're full of it." That's a nice thing to say. But that was my goal, to be a quarterback. But then I moved to receiver, and eventually to tight end.

Q: When did you officially end up as a tight end?

A: Sophomore year at Kentucky. Coaches saw a lot of potential and ability to play tight end. It's just like nowadays you get a lot of basketball guys that are doing it. The tight end position just became more athletic, so we had a lot of converted receivers growing into it.

Q: I know you're quite the golfer. What do you like about that sport?

A: I got to the point where I wouldn't enjoy it if I didn't start getting better. I enjoy it in the offseason. I have become a better player. I have taken lessons a few different times. With football, you don't touch a club for six or seven months, whatever it is, so you kind of start over every spring. Play for three months, and then you're done. But I love playing. It's a nice contrast to football, I think. It's such a hard sport. It's just you and the ball. No one is doing anything to obstruct you or tackle you, and it's still so hard.

Q: What is your best round?

A: Best round ever is 74, at a tournament back home in Kentucky. I'm not out there shooting 74 every day. I'm pretty competitive out there, though.

Q: How has your life changed since you and your wife had your son? (Luke, Tamme's son with his wife, Allison, is 18 months old.)

A: It changes everything. It teaches you a lot about yourself and your own selfishness, even in small things. You learn about giving yourself to your family, rather than maybe that round of golf that you would have played before. I think that my ultimate responsibility is raising Luke and taking care of my family.

Broncos' Demaryius Thomas returns home to Georgia as emerging star WR

Mike Klis The Denver Post September 17, 2012

ATLANTA — Demaryius Thomas was hoping the Broncos' transportation system would arrive here in his college hometown early enough Sunday so he could order out Gladys Knight's chicken and waffles.

"They've got this smothered chicken that is banging," Thomas said. "Chicken and rice. Cornbread."

What he's not likely to order is a bushel of peas. The Broncos' most dangerous receiver grew up about a two-hour drive from here in the Georgia country town of Montrose.

"Super country," he said. "We'd stand on dirt roads. Had our own fields. We had pea fields, cornfields. Planting tomatoes, collard greens. We had cows around. We had cotton fields around."

When the Broncos play the Atlanta Falcons on Monday night at the Georgia Dome, Thomas will show the home folks — particularly his 35 to 40 relatives and friends who will attend the game — how far he has come since he was here. Starting when Thomas was a high school freshman, and on through his graduation to the Georgia Tech campus in downtown Atlanta, the aunt and uncle who raised him, Shirley and James Brown, would make their nephew get up every Saturday at 6 a.m. to pick peas or pull corn.

"We'd make a couple bucks," Thomas said. "We'd get $3.50 a bushel. A bushel is a lot of peas. You know how many peas you have to pick to fill a bushel? We would work from 6 to 2, then I'd have to go home and cut the yard."

After four years at Georgia Tech, a football program that runs the yet is uncanny in its production of top-tier Sunday league receivers, Thomas became the first of the Broncos' first-round draft picks in 2010.

Vikings game serves notice

It took all of Thomas' rookie year and most of his second before he started playing to his first-round potential.

And then, starting with a Dec. 4 game at Minnesota last season, Thomas began rivaling Calvin Johnson as the league's top receiver. Thomas was the game's No. 1 star in the Broncos' 35-32 defeat of the Vikings that day as he had four catches for 144 yards and two touchdowns. That 36.0-yard average was astounding until he averaged 51.0 yards on four catches — including an 80-yard touchdown snag-and- run on the first play of overtime that will go down in the film archives of Broncos history — to beat the Pittsburgh Steelers in a first-round playoff game.

From that Vikings game in 2011 until the 2012 season opener last Sunday against the Steelers, Thomas' 855 receiving yards in eight games rank third among NFL receivers behind the New York Giants' Victor Cruz (906 in 10 games) and Detroit's Johnson, a fellow Georgia Tech product who had 980 yards in that span (in seven games).

"As a defensive coach, when he gets the ball in his hands, you've got to hold your breath because he can break tackles," said Atlanta Falcons coach Mike Smith, who often watched Thomas play in his backyard in college. "He's got a great stiff-arm and he's got outstanding long speed, as evidenced by the way he ran on the quick screen in the game Sunday night."

The 6-foot-3, 230-pound Thomas used his stiff-arm weapon to strong-arm Steelers cornerback Ike Taylor on that 80-yard game-winner in last season's playoffs, a play he topped off by outrunning the angle of safety Ryan Mundy. New season, Thomas turned a Peyton Manning screen pass into a 71-yard touchdown that keyed the Broncos' 31-19 win last week.

Thomas also had receptions of 42, 41 and 40 yards in the Vikings game. He is strong to go over the middle and catch the ball in tight coverage, and fast enough for the big play.

"His size is pretty rare for any receiver, and when you add that kind of speed to it, you saw that touchdown the other day," Manning said. "That could have been an intermediate gain for a lot of guys, but he turned on the jets and took it for 71 yards. I think the needle's pointing up."

For too long in Thomas' first two seasons with the Broncos, his needle laid inert. It wasn't so much he figured out the NFL and started to click eight games ago. The difference was as simple as playing.

"I think it was me being all the way healthy," he said. "And also once I learned the plays and was able to get outside (the training room) and get reps, I think I was able to play faster. When I'm not on the field and not in game shape and thinking about what I've got to do, I'm not as explosive as I should be. Now I'm in the right place and can get more balls."

String of injuries

Not surprisingly, good health, not stats, is Thomas' goal in 2012. Stay healthy and the stats will be there. He was hurt so many times early in his Broncos career, and he was hurt before they even drafted him. He suffered a broken fifth metatarsal in his foot while training for the NFL scouting combine in 2010, yet Broncos coach Josh McDaniels took him in the first round anyway. Thomas later missed games because of an ankle injury, a torn Achilles and a broken pinkie.

Often when athletes suffer a string of injuries, the first one leads to others.

"I think I tried to come back too fast," he said. "I had an injury, got heavy, then I tried to work out too fast and I just wasn't ready."

He's more than just ready now. Almost from the instant he got healthy, Thomas started dominating NFL games by the bushel.

Trevathan making his mark with Broncos

Frank Jolley The Daily Commercial (Leesburg, Fla.) July 7, 2012

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- Danny Trevathan is proving that he belongs in the National Football League.

The former Leesburg High School and University of Kentucky linebacker, a sixth round draft pick of the Denver Broncos, became the team's first rookie from the Class of 2012 to crack the starting lineup.

Trevathan worked with first team nickel defense during the Broncos' mandatory minicamp in June. He broke up at least one pass in coverage.

"It's a learning process, but I'm pleased with the progress I've made so far," Trevathan said. "I'm learning to react quicker, because that seems to be the biggest difference in the NFL. A lot of people talk about the speed of the game, but that hasn't been a problem for me.

"In the NFL, you have to read a play quickly and react or you'll get hung out to dry."

He also may see playing time at weakside linebacker if the six-game suspension levied against D.J. Williams for using performance-enhancing drugs is upheld.

Williams sought to have the suspension overturned in court, but a federal judge dismissed his complaint. He has since filed an appeal.

Trevathan said he will make the most of any opportunity he has to live his dream of playing professional football. To that end, he spends a great deal of time at the Broncos' training facility watching film, working out and reading his playbook.

Broncos head coach John Fox said Trevathan has made the most of his time with the team since being drafted. Fox complimented the rookie for his work ethic.

"Danny has attacked it really well as far as in the meeting rooms and in his playbook," Fox said. "This game is so mental, and for a young guy, he's caught on pretty quickly."

He also hopes that spending time around a pair of quarterbacking legends -- executive vice president of football operations John Elway, and starting quarterback Peyton Manning -- will grow his learning curve.

"Oh man, I still can't believe that I get to be around those guys," Trevathan said. "(Elway) wants to see everyone on this team succeed. He doesn't play favorites. His goal is to help us play our best and win football games. I'd be crazy not to listen to everything he has to say.

"The same goes for Peyton. He's one of the last guys to leave the building every day. I just watch what he does and pay attention to him. If I could get into his head and see the game how does, I would. The best part about Peyton Manning is that he's a great teammate.

"It doesn't matter if you're a veteran or a rookie. He'll talk to you and help you if you're struggling with a certain look. He'll pick you apart on the practice field and then help you in the film room."

Trevathan, who signed a four-year, $2.2 million contract with the Broncos shortly after the draft, said he is not motivated by proving that he should've been selected higher in the draft. Instead, he wants to prove he is worthy of the contract he signed and wants to establish himself in the league.

His goal is to build on his time with the starting unit when he reports to training camp July 22.

"I haven't accomplished anything in the NFL," Trevathan said. "We haven't even put on pads in any of our workouts. I don't want anyone to be too impressed with me at this point. Right now, I just want to play football and learn how to be a professional.

"I believe I can play with anybody and I hope to prove that when training camp begins and we put on pads."

At Kentucky, Trevathan had 143 tackles last season and was a second-team All- SEC pick. He added 11 1/2 tackles for loss and a team high four interceptions.

Trevathan has long hoped that his gridiron success inspires future Leesburg standouts.

As a freshman at Leesburg, Trevathan was in danger of falling so far into arears academically that graduation appeared to be virtually impossible.

However, Trevathan was pressed to step up his academic efforts by then-Yellow Jackets coach Charles Nassar and managed to raise his academic standing enough to not only graduate from Leesburg, but also to accept a scholarship offer from Kentucky.

Klis: Mitch Unrein's jersey is big seller in Denver thanks to family

Mike Klis The Denver Post October 7, 2012

Each rack of Broncos jerseys is hung neatly in mini-cubicles.

From left to right, the main jersey display begins with two racks of Peyton Manning's No. 18 — one set of orange, another of white — and then there's a rack of Champ Bailey No. 24 orange jerseys.

Then it's one stall of No. 27 Knowshon Moreno shirts (no, smart aleck, they haven't been thrown in the discount bin), followed by Elvis Dumervil's No. 92, Mitch Unrein's No. 96 and another set of Manning jerseys. The next row begins with Von Miller's No. 58, more Manning's No. 18, Demaryius Thomas' No. 88, the No. 87 of Eric Decker and finally two more stacks of No. 18.

It was several hours before the Broncos would begin their whipping of the Oakland Raiders and ... wait a minute.

Killing time with a walk-through at the Broncos' team store at Sports Authority Field at Mile High last Sunday, I came to a stop. I went back and looked again at the main display of Broncos jerseys.

"Mitch Unrein? " Broncos starting defensive tackle Justin Bannan said jokingly.

It's not that Unrein doesn't deserve to have his game jerseys circulating through the Sports Authority Field stands this season.

Unrein has seven tackles, half a sack, a quarterback hit and played in a healthy 46.4 percent of the defensives snaps as a backup to tackles Bannan and Kevin Vickerson.

But the key word here is "backup." Unrein backs up two guys who don't have their jerseys hanging at all at the team store. Joe Mays' No. 51 isn't part of the main display. Nor is Ryan Clady's No. 78, Jacob Tamme's No. 84, Brandon Stokley's No. 14, Wesley Woodyard's No. 52, Rahim Moore's No. 26, Chris Kuper's No. 73 or Willis McGahee's No. 23.

McGahee is the Broncos' starting tailback.

"Hey, Mitch is an icon around here," Mays said. "Mitch is big time."

Bigger than I thought. I approached Unrein last week in the Broncos' locker room at Dove Valley. I was just starting to set up my story by explaining how I walked through the stadium's team store when he cut in.

"I know what you're going to say," he said, smiling sheepishly. Unrein is from the Colorado town of Eaton, but even with a recent growth spurt, its current population of nearly 4,500 doesn't explain the status he has attained with his own jersey rack. Joel Dreessen, a starting tight end who scores touchdowns for goodness' sake, is from the larger Colorado town of Fort Morgan (pop. 11,400), and his jersey isn't hanging in the main display.

"What can I say? I have a big family," Unrein said. "I think I have 46 first cousins just on my mom's side. And they all have kids. I can't even remember all the names of my nieces and nephews on that side."

Kay Cure grew up about a 150-mile drive due east on Interstate 70 in Stratton. She met Mike Unrein, who grew up in Sterling. Together, Mike and Kay had six children. The oldest, Nicole and Natalie, were accomplished swimmers.

Then came four boys, Michael, Marty, Mark and the youngest, Mitch. Michael and Mark played football at the University of Northern Colorado.

"Both were good football players and both had knee problems," Mitch said.

The baby of the family played at Wyoming. Some friends told him about his position of prominence, between Elvis and Peyton, at the team store.

"I thought they were joking," Unrein said. "I'm like, 'Get out of here.' "

As the Unrein story goes, Mitch says, his ancestors fled Germany for Russia around the 1880s and eventually made their way to the United States. They settled in Kansas, then northeastern Colorado. Terry Unrein grew up in Brighton to be a 6-foot-5, 280-pound nose tackle who played for Colorado State and the San Diego Chargers.

"I think he's like my fourth or fifth cousin," Mitch Unrein said.

Most of the Broncos jerseys at the team store are shipped in. But the nice young lady working at the store said they made up the Unrein jerseys in the back room after receiving a large number of requests.

As of Friday, though, the only Unrein No. 96 jerseys available were in road white. The home orange No. 96 jerseys had sold out. Willis Preparing for Opportunity

By Gray Caldwell DenverBroncos.com June 20, 2012

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- The 2011 season was a milestone for wide receiver Matthew Willis.

After three years on and off of practice squads and a stint on injured reserve in 2010, Willis played in all 16 games for the first time in his career.

Not to mention his team made the postseason and he played in both playoff games, hauling in an 18-yard reception against New England in the Divisional Round.

"That was big for me," Willis said. "It was huge. Finishing a season, just the knowledge you get, how you get comfortable. Last year was a whirlwind -- one of those seasons you'll never forget. It was a lot of fun. I had a good time. I'd love to follow it up again with a bigger season."

The fifth-year receiver, who was originally recruited by UCLA as a hurdler, is out to make sure that last year was not an anomaly, but rather a sign of things to come.

In 2007, Willis was signed by the Baltimore Ravens as a college free agent. Splitting time between the practice squad and the active roster, he earned playing time in five games as a rookie, hauling in an 11-yard reception and notching a special teams stop.

He spent the following season out of football before signing to the Broncos' practice squad for the final game of the year. In 2009, he made the practice squad again -- until the final game, when he cracked the starting lineup.

He followed that up with an exceptional 2010 preseason, which included a 122- yard, one-touchdown performance in the finale. But a foot injury ended his season prematurely -- he was placed on injured reserve after six games in which he caught one pass.

But it all finally came together last season. In 16 regular-season games played, he caught 18 passes for 267 yards and a touchdown.

“Matt Willis is a guy that nobody talks about a lot, but Matt is a leader in that receiver room as well," Wide Receivers Coach Tyke Tolbert said. "When he says stuff, people listen. He leads by example. He's always back there helping the young guys. He's one of the smartest guys that I've ever been around, as far as knowing all the positions. So I'm very pleased with him from a leadership standpoint.”

Willis agreed that he sometimes feels like a veteran in the meeting room, but he admitted that at times he still feels like a young guy.

His place right in between the veterans and younger players suits him just fine.

"I think it's a great group," Willis said. "We've got Stoke (Brandon Stokley) as our veteran guy, we've got DT (Demaryius Thomas) and (Eric) Decker, who have made plays, Bubba (Andre Caldwell) made plays in Cincinnati, Jason (Hill) has made plays, then we've got a group of younger guys that are hungry and ready to compete. You've got a good staircase of talented players. Everyone's hungry and ready to make a play and we all work well together. So it's been a lot of fun."

A restricted free agent entering the offseason, Willis said he knew he wanted to be back in Denver, and was elated when that became a reality.

Now he's working on overcoming a "learning curve" while digesting a new offensive system, and understands that what he did last season doesn't necessarily mean much entering 2012.

"Every year you start over," he said. "You take it year-by-year. My goal is to come in again and prove myself, make plays and just build off of that."

He was happy with how OTAs and minicamp went for him, and he hopes to keep getting "bigger, faster, stronger" by the time training camp rolls around.

He understands the opportunity in front of him with a quarterback the caliber of Peyton Manning under center. He's already learned plenty from Manning, watching his work ethic and asking him questions along the way.

It's not lost on Willis that in his career, Manning has helped turn previously unknown players into household names, whether it was new Bronco Jacob Tamme, Pierre Garcon, "Austin Collie," Willis chimed in.

“Based on Peyton's history, the fact that he's going through his reads and throwing to open guys, it doesn't matter what quote-unquote 'number' receiver you are, you're going to get your touches," Tolbert said. "Peyton is just that good, to the point where he's not going to try to force-feed any particular guy. He's going to go through his reads and hit the open guy. That's what he's been able to do and that's why he's been so successful.”

Willis said he's putting in the work now to make sure he'll be in position to benefit.

"It's definitely a good situation to be in," he said. "We're going to pass. With a guy like that who can put a ball anywhere, it's up to us to make the plays. I just hope to earn a spot and be out there to make those plays." Denver Broncos rookie defensive lineman Derek Wolfe a big hit so far

Lindsay H. Jones The Denver Post August 11, 2012

Finally, as Derek Wolfe planted his hand in the Soldier Field dirt Thursday night, he was staring down a live target. After weeks of being told "Don't touch the quarterback," Wolfe couldn't wait to start a pass rush and finish it. Sure, Thursday was just a preseason game, and nothing that happened in Chicago will stick on Wolfe's NFL record. But with two sacks and another tackle for a loss, Wolfe made a good first impression.

"Obviously I want to be starting, so I'm going to do what I have to do to start. I'll keep my head down, keep grinding, keep pushing," Wolfe said. "You get what you deserve in this league. And if you deserve to start, they'll put you in there."

It's exactly the type of statement the Broncos expect to hear from their top pick. Still, he was largely an unknown prospect when the Broncos drafted him at No. 36 in April.

As the Broncos settle into the middle of the preseason and three more meaningless games, maybe it's time to fire up Google and track down some University of Cincinnati defensive highlights. What those Wolfe highlights reveal is a defensive lineman who routinely overpowered his opponent, and ran over and around offensive linemen en route to sacking the quarterback.

In four seasons with the Bearcats, Wolfe had 19½ sacks, including 9½ sacks last season. He also had 21½ tackles for a loss in 2011, stats usually associated with a defensive end, not an interior lineman.

"That's why they liked me — because of what I did in college," Wolfe said.

One of Jay Rodgers' first tasks in his new job as Broncos' defensive line coach was to find a role for Wolfe in the rotation of tackles and ends. Rodgers took over the job in mid-May when Wayne Nunnely retired. The only problem was, Wolfe wasn't allowed to be at Dove Valley because of an NCAA rule that prevents newly drafted players from joining their NFL teams until their college class graduates. At the University of Cincinnati, the graduation ceremony was June 9, meaning Wolfe was forced to work out on his own in Ohio while the rest of his teammates and coaches were going through organized team activities in Denver.

"There was no staying up to speed, because I wasn't allowed to really have contact with the coaches at all," Wolfe said. "I just tried to stay in shape. You can always control what type of shape you're in, so that's what I worried about." Wolfe spent much of that month doing CrossFit, mixed martial arts and boxing training, all designed to maintain strength while improving his cardiovascular endurance.

"In football, you do something quick, then stop and do something else. It's a lot of stop, go, stop, go. Not a lot of rest," Wolfe said. "(CrossFit and MMA) is about getting your lungs in condition. Anyone can grab a weight and lift it once. It's about how many times can you lift it and do it right."

There was no question about Wolfe's fitness when he was allowed to join his teammates. And once training camp began, Wolfe has thrived in the practice setting. The biggest challenge, he said, has been adapting to the mental rigor of camp, with hours of meetings and film session as he learns an NFL defense in a room full of veterans.

"We've kept him at one position, for the most part, which has simplified things," Rodgers said.

That position is strongside defensive end, where he occupies the second slot on the depth chart behind Jason Hunter. The defensive ends on the other side of the chart are Elvis Dumervil and Robert Ayers.

As the preseason has progressed, the 6-foot-5, 300-pound Wolfe also has seen increased work in the "sub" packages, sliding inside to tackle when the Broncos move into their nickel defense for passing situations. With veteran defensive tackle Justin Bannan sidelined by a strained calf, Wolfe has taken plenty of snaps with the first-team defense.

"He's got a bigger body than most ends do and he's got a chance to play a little more inside," Rodgers said. "Now, as time goes on and he learns the defense, he'll have the ability to play any place he wants to play."

And that's what Wolfe showed Thursday against the Bears. His first sack, in the first quarter, was considered a "coverage" sack; Bears quarterback Jason Campbell had nowhere to go and no one to throw to. For Wolfe's second sack, he bull rushed his way to take down Josh McCown for an 8-yard loss.

"Derek's a monster. He's really making our offensive line work hard. He's coming off the edge strong. When he's lined up inside, he's blowing up the middle. He's putting pressure on the quarterback. From what I've felt in the pocket and seen on film, I think Derek's having a great camp," said quarterback Brock Osweiler, a fellow second-round pick and frequent training camp opponent.

Rookie report

Derek Wolfe was the first of the Broncos' draft picks on the field in Thursday's preseason opener at Chicago. NFL reporter Lindsay H. Jones analyzes how those players performed in their Denver debuts:

Derek Wolfe, defensive lineman: With two sacks, and a tackle for a loss, already making the Broncos look smart for passing up higher profile tackles to wait to draft him at No. 36.

Brock Osweiler, quarterback: He'd like to forget his first pass, which skipped short of its intended receiver. But Osweiler, playing the third quarter, went on two complete four of his next six passes, including a touchdown to Jason Hill.

Ronnie Hillman, running back: Traveled to Chicago, but did not play as he continues to recover from a minor hamstring injury.

Omar Bolden, cornerback: Played most of the second half at the inside and outside cornerback positions. Credited with making one tackle.

Philip Blake, offensive lineman: Still playing with the third-string offensive line, though his versatility as a guard and center will help his case to make the 53-man roster. Malik Jackson, defensive lineman: Playing with the third-string defense in the second half, Jackson recovered a fumble.

Danny Trevathan, linebacker: The sixth-round pick got plenty of work as a weakside linebacker in the second-string base defense and nickel packages. He suffered an ankle injury late in the game, but the injury isn't considered to be serious.

On or off the NFL field, Woodyard says Mom knows best

By Dick Gabriel Big Blue Insider July 16, 2012

He was an all-stater in high school in Lagrange, Georgia, an All-Southeastern Conference performer at Kentucky and now, Wesley Woodyard is one of the top special teams linebackers in the National Football League.

And for that, we have Edna Sutton to thank.

She is the mother of Woodyard, who returned to his old Kentucky home over the weekend to hold a free camp for youngsters, looking to learn the game that has carried Woodyard to the top of his profession.

He could be spending his down time on a beach somewhere, sipping something with an umbrella floating in it, but instead, Woodyard is giving back. It’s a lesson he got from his mom.

“That’s something my mom always taught me,” he said. “Give back to people who need help and are willing to be helped.”

As soon as he made the Broncos, as an undrafted free agent, Woodyard set about making a difference in the Denver community. Because of his charity work, he was the Broncos’ nominee for the Walter Payton NFL Man of the year each of the last two seasons. But actually becoming an NFL player was surprisingly difficult for a man who twice led the SEC in tackles.

On draft day, every team in the league passed on Woodyard, who signed with the Broncos in part because of encouragement from Denver’s assistant pro personnel director, Champ Kelly, a former Wildcat himself. He called it a gloomy time in his life, but his mother urged him never to give up.

Woodyard quickly established himself as a playmaker, and for three of the past four seasons he has been the Broncos special teams captain.

“ I started my career (at UK) on special teams,” he said, “the first Louisville game. Coach Ort (then special teams coach Steve Ortmayer) loved me to death. I’d go down the field and sacrifice my body.”

For so many players hoping to catch on in the NFL, special teams can be their ticket to the big league. Ex-UK tailback Alfonso Smith hooked on with the Arizona Cardinals via special teams, and former Wildcat linebacker Danny Travathan is hoping follow Woodyard’s path with the Broncos. “If you can’t play special teams, you can’t really do much,” Woodyard said. “It can increase your chances of playing 10-13 years. “

Woodyard is looking to serve as a mentor for Travathan, who will be competing with him for playing time, as well as a slot on the roster.

“You fight for your job every year,” Woodyard said. “It’s something I appreciate. I see new guys get drafted and come in every year. I thrive on competition. I love being a competitive guy. I love the game of football and make sure I put my all in it.”

Woodyard is confident Travathan will stick.

“Danny is a great athlete,” he said. “I respect him. I picked him up and took him out to eat. The first thing he said was, ‘I want to contribute to the team, no matter what it is. I want to help you guys win.’ A young guy who says that, the future is bright. That’s the attitude you want to have.

“He’s one of the best guys I’ve seen come in a as rookie.”

Travathan no doubt would remind Denver fans of the kid out of Kentucky who made the squad in 2008. Woodyard has led the team in special teams tackles in three of his four NFL seasons. Last year he started a career-high seven games, finishing second on the club with a personal-best 87 tackles (60 solo). And he did it using the skills that made him a fan-favorite in Lexington.

“The biggest thing, is whatever got you to the NFL as a linebacker, you never want to lose those instincts, the way you play the game,” he said. “You want to get better, year in and year out.”

And, he says, be coachable.

“A lot of guys get to the league and think, Well, I’m a professional, I don’t have to listen. But you learn something new every day in the NFL. Your learning curve has to increase.”

Woodyard was part of a defensive unit that found itself in the middle of a debate last season, once the Broncos began winning with Tim Tebow at quarterback. Tebow-backers pointed to the almost other-worldly type comebacks Denver put up; Tebow-bashers insisted it was the defense that was putting the team in a position to win that any NFL quarterback could exploit. Woodyard said the Bronco defenders were fine with Tebow getting the credit. They appreciated the work ethic they saw in the former Florida Gator. “We’re like offensive linemen,” he said. “We don’t get much praise.

“Nobody in the locker room wanted any attention,” he said. “When they named him the starter, he took that team over. He was there, day in and day out, from six to six at night, sometimes 10 o’clock at night. Sometimes, he’d sleep there. He was just a guy who worked hard. He never wanted anybody to be let down. When it came fourth quarter time, it was ‘Tebow time.’ ”

Woodyard played on one of the best UK team in years, the 2007 squad that won eight games – but still couldn’t find a way to beat the Gators. “He rubbed his glory days in my face from time to time,” Woodyard said with a laugh, “but getting a chance to compete against him, I respect everything he did. And getting a chance to see finally why Florida was so successful, it was because of him. He never let anybody down. He found a way to push guys better than anybody I’ve seen.”

Woodyard says he wishes Tebow the best with the New York Jets, but he’s excited to have Peyton Manning at quarterback now. “He’s one of the best to play the game. He’s on point out there. He has the keys to the facility,” he said. “He’s one of the guys who sleeps over there some nights.”

And one of Manning’s favorite targets is another ex-Wildcat and former Woodyard teammate, tight end Jacob Tamme, a free agent Manning suggested to the Bronco brass.

“That says a lot about Tamme – one of the best quarterbacks who ever played the game recommends you,” Woodyard said. “It means a lot, and Tamme is out there. He’s been working his butt off. One thing about Tamme is, he comes to work every day and competes. You’re going to be better going up against those guys.”

Tamme and Woodyard helped lead the Wildcats to a pair of victories in the Music City Bowl. Now, Woodyard is dreaming of something bigger.

“It would be great to win one of those Super Bowl trophies,” he said, “and get the chance to get back in the locker room with Tamme and hold that trophy. It would be special.”

It would be that – and one more way to make his mother proud. National Football League Game Summary NFL Copyright © 2012 by The National Football League. All rights reserved.
