  • Denver Broncos Postgame Quotes & Notes
    Denver Broncos Postgame Quotes & Notes Denver Broncos vs. Indianapolis Colts • INVESCO Field at Mile High • Saturday, Aug. 27, 2005 DENVER BRONCOS HEAD COACH MIKE SHANAHAN On the play of RB Mike Anderson, who rushed for 159 yards and had a 93-yard touchdown run “It was real nice to see Mike make a big play like that. It’s very seldom to see a back in the National Football League break for 93 yards, and to see Mike do that was pretty impressive. I really had a chance to watch Mike in the offseason program, so you get a chance to evaluate a guy on a day-to-day basis. We really felt that Mike was in great shape, and we had no question in our minds that he was completely healthy.” On WR Ashley Lelie recording 104 receiving yards “I think people forget that last year, he led the National Football League in yards per catch last year. He has been very good coming up with big plays and (generating) a lot of penalties against him and even when he didn’t come up with the big play. We really thought he could take his game to a different level. He has become more consistent and he has been doing that in camp. He’s not there yet by no means, but he’s fighting for the ball and he’s more aggressive. His intermediate routes are getting better and he’s natural at the big play.” On the defense’s play against Colts QB Peyton Manning “You never stop that guy, very few teams stop him, and so it was a great challenge for us.

A record 109 foreign-born players are on NFL training camp rosters this summer. Included are eight players from the NFL’s International Development Practice Squad Program who were selected for displaying outstanding potential and performance in the NFL Europe League this spring. They have earned positions for the entire season on the practice squad rosters of teams in the AFC North and NFC East Divisions. The practice squad players are Pittsburgh WR MARVIN ALLEN (United Kingdom), Dallas LB CARL- JOHAN BJORK (Sweden), Washington LB PHILIPPE GARDENT (France), Baltimore T SAMUEL GUTEKUNST (Germany), Philadelphia DE CHRISTIAN MOHR (Germany), New York Giants S CLAUDIUS OSEI (Germany), Cincinnati DE DANIEL WATTS (United Kingdom) and Cleveland DE ULRICH WINKLER (Germany). The 109 internationals all have interesting stories in their backgrounds. Here are several of them: · Kansas City Chiefs rookie defensive end TAMBA HALI missed two practices on July 31 to take the test to become a U.S. citizen. He spent eight hours answering questions on American history, such as, “How many stars and stripes are on the flag?” It was well worth the effort. A native of Liberia, Hali fled the country’s civil war 12 years ago at the age of 10.
