Week 14

Xanders feels Broncos' pain

Mike Klis The Denver Post August 9, 2010

There is an inspirational path for all those battered and bruised bodies at Dove Valley.

It travels from the hot tub in the trainer's room to a top executive's office upstairs.

Brian Xanders isn't just the Broncos' general manager. He's a front-office Willis Reed, an example to all those injured players — which is growing into a who's who list of Broncos — on how to play hurt.

On July 13, Xanders underwent a triple-fusion surgery on his neck. Two degenerative discs were removed, bone marrow was extracted from his pelvic bone and then sprayed on two plastic discs, which were inserted back into the spine. Then came the hardware: a 4-inch steel plate, secured with eight screws, attached to the spine so it could keep four consecutive vertebrae in their proper slots.

"I felt great right after," Xanders said.

A week later, Xanders was back in his office, a zipper- scar souvenir on the front of his neck. Within 11 days after his return, Xanders had finalized a five-year, $58.3 million extension for veteran pass rusher Elvis Dumervil and negotiated multiyear contracts with five rookies — Demaryius Thomas, Tim Tebow, Zane Beadles, Eric Decker and Eric Olsen — for another $32 million combined.

Let's see Dumervil and Ryan Clady match that kind of production upon their return from surgery.

"The way Brian worked and what he did shortly after he had a major surgery like that, I mean, I know we're not out there in helmets and pads, but that showed a lot of toughness in its own right," Broncos coach Josh McDaniels said.

Besides toughness, Xanders showed some front-office ingenuity in getting $89 million worth of contract extensions negotiated with Dumervil and starting guard Chris Kuper.

Entering those negotiations, Xanders was handicapped — and we don't mean his neck. The Broncos had been the NFL's most aggressive team in free agency the past two years (Brian Dawkins, Andre Goodman, Renaldo Hill, Jabar Gaffney, Correll Buckhalter, Jamal Williams, Justin Bannan), leaving no more cash in the 2010 drawer.

"It's not how much money you spend, it's how you spend it," Broncos chief operating officer Joe Ellis said. "There are plenty of examples of organizations that follow this principle and have great success. I give Brian and Josh great credit for being as active as any team in free agency the last two years, while at the same time being both smart and prudent as they look toward the future." Device for D-linemen "my baby"

Broncos assistant coach Wayne Nunnely turned a knee-jerk reaction into a popular teaching tool.

By Jeff Legwold The Denver Post November 3, 2010

When Wayne Nunnely's knees sent waves of pain rocketing up his legs and through his body, an idea was born. One that can now be found on peewee, middle school, high school, college and NFL practice fields from coast to coast.

"Right there, that's my baby," said Nunnely, the Broncos' defensive line coach since the start of the 2009 season. "You hope to create something, but you never know.

"At the time I just thought, 'I can't be the only guy coaching football who has bad knees.' "

His "baby" is The Snapper. Or Snapper Stick, as it's known in the Rae Crowther Co. catalog, where Nunnely is pictured, invention in hand.

"You see them everywhere," Broncos defensive lineman Justin Bannan said. "I thought they've always been around."

In essence, The Snapper is a foam football, much like a Nerf football, attached to the end of a stick. A coach can stand with the device and simulate the snap of the football during position drills without actually having to use a center, who may be involved in another part of practice.

The idea popped into Nunnely's head more than a decade ago when, because of his aching knees — knees he has since had replaced — he couldn't bend to participate in drills the way he wanted.

"My knees were starting to bother me at that point. After 18 years in college ball, I'm with the Saints, my first job in the league," Nunnely said. "So instead of going down on one knee to simulate the snap with the ball to get the D-linemen going, I would just move my foot.

"I would stand up and just move my foot. It was just a lot more comfortable for me. But Jim Mora was the (Saints) head coach and he said, 'I really want you down there moving the ball for them.' That really hurt, so I asked the equipment guy, 'Can you just do me a favor?' "

That favor, Nunnely said, was to put a ball on a stick so he didn't have to bend down. "Tape it, wire it, whatever," were his instructions.

In 1997, when Nunnely was hired by the San Diego Chargers, he asked the Chargers' assistant equipment manager, Chris Smith, to make another football with a stick. That set the wheels in motion. Smith found a local manufacturer who could make the ball so the stick could be molded right into the ball.

It wasn't long before Nunnely and his wife, Velda, were packing boxes in the couple's garage, preparing to ship The Snapper nationwide. Nunnely said at one point his house was a weekly stop on the neighborhood's United Parcel Service route — Wednesdays — as orders came in from throughout the country.

"They showed up once a week, and we would have them all ready to go," Nunnely said. "They would fill out the order sheets, and those came right to my house."

Nunnely said sales picked up when an unexpected benefit of using the device was discovered by coaches. Instead of kneeling to simulate a snap during drills, limiting your vision, a coach can use The Snapper and remain standing.

"You could see everybody, defensive end to defensive end. You had a better look at how they were coming off the ball, what kind of technique they had," Nunnely said. "I think I've been able to get a lot better feel for how guys are doing, what their reaction times are in a live situation."

Nunnely trademarked the name, but he never patented the device because of time and cost issues, he said. He now lets a few of the major equipment dealers, including Rae Crowther, handle the manufacturing and shipping.

"It just got to be too much," Nunnely said. "But I like to see them around." Making a Splash

Eric Detweiler DenverBroncos.com November 25, 2010

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- Garnering attention on the practice field can be a challenge for a rookie college free agent.

On a mid-May afternoon at Dove Valley, Wesley Woodyard noticed Kevin Alexander.

As Woodyard recalls, Alexander had earned time with the first team kick-off coverage unit early into the voluntary workout. As some players bowed out of the drill, the Clemson product kept hustling.

Soon, Alexander was taking every rep, sprinting downfield with game-like intensity during the non-contact drill. After reaching the other end of the field, the linebacker readied to do it all again.

For Woodyard, a former college free agent who rose to become a captain in his second season as a Bronco, it was a refreshing sight. Here, he thought, was a youngster who understands what it takes to be a pro.

"You have to admire a guy like him -- any guy in our situation that comes in and continues to fight every day," Woodyard said. "The thing about him, he was really smart. That caught a lot of players' eyes."

By all accounts, Alexander kept that attitude and only continued that hard work through OTAs. Recently, the 6-foot-4, 265-pound linebacker started reaping the rewards.

Alexander saw extensive action with the first-team defense during the team's recently completed mandatory minicamp. With more than a month to wait before his first training camp, Alexander hopes he can parlay his early impact into a spot on the 53-man roster.

"I knew when the opportunity came I was going to have to jump at it," Alexander said recently. "When the opportunity came, I went with it. Hopefully, I can just keep going."

Part of the hard-working attitude that impressed Woodyard is likely a product of Alexander's background. The 22-year old has always shared the spotlight. Coming out of Florida's Union County High School, teammate C.J. Spiller gained much of the publicity. After following Spiller to Clemson, Alexander tried to carve out his niche on a star-studded defense that featured heralded defensive ends Ricky Sapp and Da'Quan Bowers.

For the high school defensive end, that meant spending some time as a Tiger learning to play linebacker, which he said has eased his transition to an NFL defense.

While Buffalo made Spiller a first round selection and Sapp went to the Eagles in the fifth round in this year's draft, Alexander signed with the Broncos knowing he'd have to earn any fanfare with his work on the practice field.

Alexander acknowledged he was nervous when defensive coordinator Don 'Wink' Martindale gave him his first shot to work with the first team toward the end of the Broncos' June passing camp, but he quickly realized the opportunity was too important to let nerves get in the way.

Alexander has relished the chance to learn from his practice film. He credited Woodyard and Mario Haggan, a former seventh-round pick, with keeping him positive and making him feel like he belongs on a defense with several All-Pros.

Woodyard, who saw time in all 16 games last season, said he knows from experience that projecting self-confidence by communicating on the field is the best way to impress the veterans.

In Alexander's words, "Don't act like a rookie."

"When you're in that situation, you tend to think too much more when we get out there instead of relaxing and playing," Woodyard said. "You've just got to go out there with the confidence that you belong out there, and Kevin's definitely shown that several times."

Now Alexander is focused on building off his experience, saying the first-team reps just drive him to want more.

While first-team practice reps will be even harder to come by once training camp begins, the youngster thinks his versatility and ability to contribute on special teams will be big assets going forward.

It's understandable why the rookie's outlook makes him sound wise beyond his years with role models such as Woodyard and Haggan to guide him.

With training camp looming, Alexander said he can't afford to deviate from his current path if he wants to make the team. "It was basically hard work that got me here," Alexander said. "I've got to keep working, stay focused, keep my head in the playbook and when my opportunities come just show what I've got."

Broncos' Ayers planning to shine

Former first-round pick knows he can't have repeat of zero-sack rookie season

By Jeff Legwold The Denver Post September 5, 2010

There are many who believe Robert Ayers absolutely has to have a huge season for the Broncos.

They believe Ayers must be the kind of pass rusher who is selected in the first round of the NFL draft, that he can't go another year with that glaring zero in the sack column, staring back at him and everyone else like an unblinking Cyclops.

Well, get in line behind Ayers, because as he approaches the start of a regular season in which he must be an impact player for the Broncos, he has already beaten you to all of the expectations.

"I know that," Ayers said. "I do. I don't want to be just out there, and sometimes I look at what I did last year and I was just out there. I say that wasn't me all the time. . . . I have to make sure it wasn't me. You know, prove it."

Some folks take a step back before they review what they have done. Perhaps they concoct an excuse or two, maybe find someone who will tell them what they want to hear.

Ayers? He prefers to barge into self-examination, pounding away like it's a heavy bag.

"I said it (after the Aug. 29 preseason game against the Steelers)," Ayers said. "I want to be great. There's a lot of guys who are good players, a lot of guys that are decent players — they're around for a while and then they're not around — but I want to be great. That's what I expect of myself.

"If I don't make it, that's just how it is. But if you don't try, you should get out now."

With star pass rusher Elvis Dumervil, last year's NFL sack champion, out for the season after surgery to repair a chest muscle, Ayers is the most likely to fill the significant void. Ayers finished the preseason with 2 1/2 sacks in limited duty.

He's big (6-feet-3 and 274 pounds), quick and plays with the kind of edge successful pass rushers have — grinding away until they break through and get to the quarterback.

Dumervil has called it "that 'want-to' to get the quarterback." "It might take you all day to set up the one time you get to the quarterback and knock the ball out and change the game," Dumervil said. "But you can't give up, no matter how many guys hit you, no matter how many plays you don't get there. I think Robert has that. He just has to get a few (sacks) and then they'll come."

Broncos offensive tackle Ryan Harris has locked up with Ayers often in practices.

"(Ayers has) definitely worked hard, and it's good for me to go against somebody who's driven like that in practice because he just keeps things fresh and keeps things competitive," Harris said. "He was very competitive through camp, and I think it shows in the way he's been playing."

NFL scouts say Ayers was too often caught in traffic last season, engaging blockers but not shedding them.

Ayers was lauded for his awareness on the field as a senior at Tennessee, but he seemed to get frustrated in a position switch from defensive end to linebacker as an NFL rookie last year.

"That's true," Ayers said. "I didn't make enough plays. I have to play my assignments and when I get a chance, make those plays we have to make. I know I'm better than that."

The Broncos have talked about how aggressive they're going to be on defense once the regular season opens at Jacksonville.

They did not show much during the preseason, so at least part of the box can be opened against the Jaguars next Sunday.

"I'm not going to make a big deal out of (the preseason)," Ayers said. "When I've been around a long time and made a lot of plays, then we'll talk about it. Talking is just talking. I want to be the guy who does things." Broncos' Ayers wants to "dominate" this season

Jeff Legwold The Denver Post August 2, 2010

Sunday was a new day for Broncos linebacker Robert Ayers.

And at the Broncos' first day of training camp, there was Ayers lined up at the strongside spot with the starting defense, a rather tidy jump from his brief sentence down the depth chart in the team's last public minicamp in June.

For something he still simply calls "a mistake I made, that's all," Ayers had been removed from the starting defense for the Broncos' final minicamp and, in fact, was given very few repetitions at any point in the defense during those workouts.

"But that didn't bruise my confidence, not at all," Ayers said Sunday. "I'm feeling very confident right now, more confident than I've ever been. And, hopefully, I can put it to use out here."

Ayers still contends he was "never in the doghouse" with Broncos coach Josh McDaniels with the very public minicamp demotion and that the two did eventually sit down and discuss the matter, which wasn't any legal issue, to iron things out.

It's all part of what he wants to leave behind, the pile of things Ayers now calls "things I don't want to talk about right now; the past is past."

The second-year linebacker was the 18th pick of the draft in 2009 — one of two first-round picks by the Broncos — but struggled at times as he made the transition from college defensive end to strongside NFL linebacker in the Broncos' 3-4 scheme. Ayers started one game, at Philadelphia last December, but he finished with just 19 tackles in his spot duty and no sacks.

"When I looked at those games again, I didn't see myself out there. That's not me," Ayers said. "I know that, but that being said, the past is the past. I'm ready to move on. The coaches know it, I know it."

"I've always said the good thing about Robert is his expectations for himself are so high," Broncos linebacker Elvis Dumervil said. "He understands the only thing you can do if you want to do better is to try to get better. He put in the work, no doubt about it."

While McDaniels has called Ayers' approach "professional" overall in the offseason, he consistently has lauded Jarvis Moss' work as well. And with Dumervil being the league's reigning sack king as well as coming off his first Pro Bowl appearance, any snaps Moss eventually earns could come at Ayers' expense if Ayers can't hold his ground in this training camp.

The Broncos also used Baraka Atkins, a free-agent signee who has played in 21 games in his career, plenty with the defense in the offseason drills.

"I want to improve on everything," Ayers said. "I want to be dominant, I want to be quick, I want to play fast, I want to execute, I want to do everything. But my big emphasis out here is to dominate.

"I want to dominate every player that lines up in front of me. That's what I've been focusing on, getting myself ready in the offseason to do that. That's what I expect of myself, to come out and dominate. I know I have to do that to keep the job." Tough work nothing new for Broncos' Bannan Manual labor on hot days? It was just part of the growing experience for the defensive lineman.

By Mike Klis The Denver Post October 1, 2010

As kids, some NFL players might have had a paper route. Others grew up mowing the lawn or taking out the trash.

Justin Bannan spent his scorching summer days in the Sacramento, Calif., area pouring concrete.

And framing houses. Hanging sheet rock. Imagine the fun that comes with installing insulation on a 105-degree day.

"Digging ditches, hot days, small rollers on big paint jobs," Terry Bannan said from a rooftop in Montana, where he now lives and still runs his own construction company. "He didn't get any favors because he was Dad's kid. In fact, he might have had it worse. He told me he made it to the NFL for the expressed purpose of never having to work with me again. Which was my goal, actually."

Considering Bannan grew up to excel in the down-and-dirty occupation of NFL defensive lineman, it's hardly a shock he spent his youth performing arduous manual labor.

"Fits him to a T," Broncos safety Brian Dawkins said. "Tough, tough, tough. Mentally, to be out there grueling in the heat — I can see it. He's one of those grunt guys. He's a guy willing to take on the tough assignment. It kind of fits."

Fits? From his toiling teenage years when he'd run — not walk, but run — from job to job for his father's construction company to becoming a Broncos defensive lineman, Bannan often is described as a blue-collar, lunch bucket-type player.

"You get labeled as that," Bannan said, smiling at the predictability of it all. "They don't ever say you're an athlete. They say you're a lunch-pail guy. You hear that with almost every guy in the league who's built like me."

Lunch pail. Blue collar. Hard worker. And don't forget the ultimate backhanded compliment: Overachiever!

"Never mind you might be somewhat of a good athlete who's good at his craft," Bannan said. "But you get labeled that from Day One."

Small stats, big contribution Bannan's stat line isn't going to help him shed his label. Through three games, the 6-foot-3, 310-pound former University of Colorado standout has only three tackles and zero sacks.

Yet, Bannan is easily the most irreplaceable defensive lineman on a Broncos unit that shut down the 2-1 Seattle Seahawks two weeks ago and last week forced Peyton Manning to play at the top of his game.

While Broncos nose tackle Jamal Williams is spelled to keep his 34-year-old, 348- pound body fresh, and right defensive end Ryan McBean comes out on passing downs, Bannan plays on first and second downs, when he's asked to clog the run, and stays in with the team's quirky nickel package, when he becomes the only lineman to drop into a three-point stance.

Not bad for a guy who spent the bulk of his first eight NFL seasons in Buffalo and Baltimore backing up the likes of Sam Adams, and Kelly Gregg.

"You got to see him on film play the way we would teach our defensive ends to play," Broncos coach Josh McDaniels said. "The other thing, he has great versatility. We like to make sure our players are not one-dimensional."

Soccer was his first passion

It's not like Bannan, 31, wears work boots and bib overalls to Dove Valley every day. Raised first in the Sacramento suburb of Orangevale, Calif., his family moved in his middle-school years to nearby Fair Oaks, a white-collar town that claims "The Notebook" author Nicholas Sparks among its more famous sons.

And, yes, Bannan has seen the chick flick.

"My wife wanted to see the movie," he said. "I was dragged into watching it."

Bannan played youth flag football and high school basketball against future NBA player Matt Barnes. And for all his toughness and strong work ethic, Bannan's athleticism was partially developed from 14 years of soccer. He played forward, one of the primary scoring positions.

Heaven help the soccer moms of the opposing goalie.

"That was my sport, man," he said. "For a chunky kid, I was pretty fast."

But the manly man characteristics Bannan will carry to Nashville's LP Field for the game Sunday against the Tennessee Titans? That came from summers with his father. High school, even breaks between years at Colorado, Bannan and his older brother Jason would get schooled in the world of construction. "And if there were disciplinary issues, they'd be out there with a shovel when they were 10 or 11," Terry said.

The toughest part of the job, Bannan said, wasn't necessarily the backbreaking tasks. It was getting up at 4 a.m. to beat the searing Northern California heat so they could properly perform those backbreaking tasks. Nothing put the ache in Bannan more than days of laying concrete.

"I would say that was up there on the scale of things you don't want to do," Terry Bannan said. "It's funny, he just told me, he said, 'Dad, I have the best-paying blue-collar job in the world. I play in the NFL.'

"I thought that was quite apropos." Broncos' Bannan content in the shadows The former CU star is a key performer in a quiet role.

By Lindsay H. Jones The Denver Post August 30, 2010

When Justin Bannan finished his senior season at the University of Colorado in 2001, he took the Regiment Award home with him from the team banquet.

That's the honor Buffaloes coaches gave to the player the team believed made the greatest contribution but received the least amount of recognition for doing so.

Sounds perfect for a defensive lineman. And perfect for Bannan, a nine-year NFL veteran defensive end who was the first unrestricted free agent to sign with the Broncos this season.

"If they play (the defense) correctly, their stats aren't going to be huge, and people need to realize that," Bannan said. "It's one of those things where you're creating a wall and just plugging everything up so the 'backers can roam and run and make plays. If the play comes to you, you need to make it, but the most important thing is just doing your job and taking care of your gap."

Still, it has been hard not to notice Bannan through the Broncos' preseason. Just watch when the defensive starters play the next time, Sept. 12 in the season opener at Jacksonville, and Bannan will hardly ever leave the field.

He's the left defensive end in the base defense, he slides to his right to play tackle in the "nickel" formation when the team brings in an extra defensive back, and he remains in the game as the biggest defensive body on the field when the Broncos go to their "dime" defense with six players in the secondary.

In the same game, and even on the same defensive series, it means Bannan could find himself matching up against anyone from an offensive tackle to the center.

"It is kind of what I envisioned," Bannan said. "It has been a tough, hard camp for me, but it is always going to be a challenge when you come into a place new, with new teammates and everything. I feel very good, I love the guys I'm with, love this team. It has been a good experience — tough, but that's what it's all about."

In August, that much work is exhausting in training camp. But from September through December, being able to move up and down the line makes Bannan irreplaceable. The Broncos will likely carry only seven defensive linemen on the 53- man roster, and not all of those will make the active game-day roster of 45 players. "Versatility is definitely something that gives Justin added value," coach Josh McDaniels said. "He's a smart player, a tough player. Really anything you give him to do, he really focuses on doing his job and he does it really well."

The Broncos liked Bannan's body of work from his previous four seasons in Baltimore — where he was a starter in 2008 and a rotational player in 2009 — enough to bring Bannan to Dove Valley as soon as the free agency period opened. Bannan never left. The Broncos are hoping Bannan will bring to Denver the toughness and attitude that has typified Ravens defenses over the past several years.

Bannan, who also played four years with Buffalo, has 5 1/2 career sacks and has played in five postseason games.

"I'm really happy we brought him in. He's added another physical dimension, along with Jamal (Williams), along with Ryan (McBean), in that first group," defensive line coach Wayne Nunnely said. "I think we've got as physical a group as I've had in the years I've been in the league."

Opportunity to start lured Bannan to Broncos

By Lindsay H. Jones The Denver Post Posted: 03/20/2010

Several times during Justin Bannan's first eight years in the NFL, he thought of coming back to Colorado.

Bannan, a 6-foot-3, 310-pound defensive lineman, looked into buying property in the Denver area and making this his offseason home, a respite from Buffalo and Baltimore, where he spent four years each. But with his football life located across the country, Bannan would always just rent.

Now, finally, Bannan is going to get himself a house here.

But the prospect of returning to Colorado, where he played for the University of Colorado from 1997-2001, wasn't the biggest selling point.

Here with the Broncos, Bannan will get to start.

He was the first of three defensive linemen signed by the Broncos in the first week of free agency. Bannan is expected to start at one of the defensive end spots, opposite Jarvis Green (from New England), with Jamal Williams (from San Diego) at the nose tackle spot.

Bannan has made 27 career starts — including 15 for Baltimore in 2008 — but only two last season.

"I loved Baltimore, but we were so deep in D-line there that it was tough," Bannan said. "We had a rotation, but you definitely want to be that full-time starter, and it was tough over there to do that."

Bannan was already in the Denver area — and had been for a month — when free agency started March 5. Logistically, the Broncos made for an easy first visit, with a familiar locale and friendly faces, including tight end Daniel Graham, who was Bannan's teammate at CU those five seasons.

Yet it was the Broncos' 3-4 system and a pitch from new defensive coordinator Don "Wink" Martindale that sold Bannan. He had drawn interest from other teams, but he never left Dove Valley.

"Business-wise, it has to be right, the style of defense, what Wink is trying to bring to the table, how he operates; it is right up my alley, so it was a bonus to be able to come back out here," Bannan said. "I think I'm in the right system, with the right people, and that's the important part." When Bannan signed his five-year, $22 million contract, he thought he would be the new starting nose tackle. Then, less than a week later, the Broncos signed Williams, a 348-pound behemoth who played nothing but nose tackle for the Chargers for more than a decade.

"That's fine, it doesn't really matter. They brought me in and said it could be nose, it could be end," Bannan said. "I've played both. Doesn't matter to me. I'll do whatever they want me to do."

Graham and Bannan — along with many members of their CU class — have remained in close contact since they left Boulder in the spring of 2002 after a tumultuous five years. They were recruited by Rick Neuheisel, redshirted together in 1997, then were left behind when Neuheisel bolted for Washington. By their final season in Boulder, Bannan and Graham were leaders on the Buffaloes team that finally climbed back to the national stage by beating Nebraska and winning the Big 12 title.

"Don't remember me from college," Bannan said, laughing. "I grew up a little. I'm not a way different guy, I just grew up a little. I made some changes, I'm getting married soon, that kind of stuff. Looking to buy a house."

But Graham said Broncos fans can expect the same type of tough player Buffaloes fans remember from Bannan's days in Boulder.

"I think he can do a lot, just knowing what he's done in the past. I know he's going to be a good leader on this team, on this defense," Graham said. "Hopefully a lot of the younger guys can look up to him and see why he's been in this league so long. I'm glad he's here."

A mom’s dream come true

BY BOB HAMMOND / LARAMIE BOOMERANG • TUESDAY, APRIL 27, 2010

Jamie Legerski doesn’t have a crystal ball. It was more of a hope and a hunch than anything.

That’s why she made a late-night trip to Wal-Mart last Thursday following the first round of the NFL Draft and bought 15 Denver Broncos hats.

She wanted to be prepared just in case her son, former Utah offensive tackle Zane Beadles, would somehow end up in a Broncos uniform before the three-day event concluded.

“We had watched the draft on Thursday night, and it was so cool because (the first- round picks) all got to put on the hats (of the team that drafted them),” Legerski, the wife of University of Wyoming women’s basketball coach Joe Legerski, said.

“So I thought, ‘Wouldn’t it be cool if that really happened and I had hats to hand out to everybody?’”

On Friday, the Legerskis made the trip to Utah to watch the rest of the NFL Draft with Zane at the home of his girlfriend’s parents in Orem.

That gathering included Jamie Legerski’s side of the family as well as Zane’s father’s side.

Early in the second round, Zane got a call on his cell phone.

“We knew that somebody from the organization that is going to pick a player calls him before it is announced on TV,” Jamie Legerski said. “He’s on the phone and saying, ‘OK coach … really excited coach … thanks coach,’ and we’re all sitting there really quiet and staring out him and thinking, ‘Was it an NFL coach, a coach from college wishing him good luck or what?’”

Since the Raiders were on the clock, Zane’s family was thinking that he might be headed for Oakland.

Jamie Legerski recalled: “As soon as he got off the phone I said, ‘Are you next?’ and he said, ‘No, but I’m the pick after that, and I’m going to Denver.’ We all started screaming.”

Jamie Legerski sent her youngest son, Joseph, to the car for the Broncos hats, and they started handing them out. Then everyone got quiet for the announcement.

“With the 45th pick in the 2010 NFL Draft, the Denver Broncos select Zane Beadles, offensive lineman from the University of Utah,” former Broncos running back and NFL Hall of Famer Floyd Little announced.

Jamie Legerski said: “We were all hoping it would happen. But never in our wildest dreams did we think he would go that high in the second round and then have him go to the Broncos.

“I still don’t think I have grasped what happened because that was my dream for him to go to the Broncos, and it didn’t matter what round.”

Jamie Legerski feels like the selection of her son by the Broncos was payback for the last six years.

The Legerskis moved back to Laramie just prior to Zane’s junior year in high school when Joe Legerski, who was an assistant coach at the time under Elaine Elliott at Utah, got the women’s basketball job at UW.

Jamie Legerski then drove back and forth from Laramie to Salt Lake City for every one of Zane’s high school (Hillcrest High in Midvale, Utah) games his junior and seniors years.

Then in the last four years that he was a starter at Utah, she saw all but three of the Utes’ games, home and away.

“So I’m on cloud nine right now,” she said. “I still can’t believe it’s true that he’s going to be so close. I could not have asked for a better situation.

“We’ve never really been big NFL fans. We’ve always been about college sports and never paid much attention to the NFL, the NBA or anything about that. But now we are Bronco fans, and we will become NFL fans.”

A Winning Attitude

By Eric Detweiler DenverBroncos.com July 13, 2010

Correll Buckhalter enjoyed a career year in his first season as a Bronco. Now he's focused on leading the team to the postseason and beyond.

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- As the season draws closer, Correll Buckhalter will likely get out a pen and paper and scrawl down several of his goals as he has nearly every year since breaking into the league in 2001. The 31-year-old running back said it sometimes helps to have tangible individual and team milestones to shoot for. But there's one goal that Buckhalter will not write. He doesn't need to because it is never far from his mind. "I'm all about winning right now," Buckhalter said. "I'm at the point of my career where I'm a 30-plus-year-old running back and only God knows how much longer I've got in this league. My main objective is to get a Super Bowl." That's one of the biggest lessons he's picked up in a once-snake bitten and now- resurgent career. Approaching his 10th NFL season, Buckhalter said he's a little smarter, a little more prepared and a lot hungrier to win a title. Now the patriarch of a talented backfield, Buckhalter, who was on the Eagles' roster for four NFC Championship defeats and a Super Bowl loss, said he'll be doing anything he can to make sure he can add "Super Bowl Champion" to his list of career accolades. Part of that plan to take the Broncos to the next level comes from building off his personal success in his first season in Denver. The Nebraska product set career highs with 642 yards, a 5.4 yards per carry average and 31 receptions in 2009. For a player who missed three complete seasons with knee injuries in the middle of his career, that success while playing in 14 games with seven starts is a testament to his physical and mental preparations. Buckhalter said he's learned that taking care of his body is a full-time, year-round job that includes eating right -- something he said he struggled with early in his career -- and approaching every workout professionally. With a year to learn Head Coach Josh McDaniels' system, the running back is even more upbeat about the team's future, After minicamps concluded in mid-June, Buckhalter detailed how he and the rest of the of the offense have progressed since last year at this time, calling McDaniels "a genius." "It's allowed me to not think so much about my responsibilities," Buckhalter said. "I can just get out on the field and play and just let it go." His experience also helps him influence his younger teammates, particularly backfieldmate Knowshon Moreno -- a role Buckhalter relishes. Learning in an Eagles' system that featured veterans Dorsey Levens, Brian Mitchell and Duce Staley, Buckhalter said he feels a responsibility to pay it forward. Moreno and Buckhalter handled the majority of the rushing load last season, and the veteran said during OTAs he's seen Moreno demonstrate more of the dynamic, big-play flashes he once showed at Georgia. "I don't know everything, but the little stuff I know I try to help," Buckhalter said. "It's little key things that I know that he probably hasn't picked up yet, and I just help him with it." Buckhalter won't discuss the figures that might make his personal goals list this season. Even when he gets around to writing them down later this summer, he'll keep them to himself. But Buckhalter's biggest goal is no secret. With the fickle nature of pro football, he's happy to be still plying his trade at the highest level. That's why Buckhalter said bringing another championship to the Mile High City would be just another blessing on a long list. "You can be here one day and gone the next (in the NFL)," Buckhalter said. "I'm fortunate. A lot of people wonder like, 'Man, how does this man have two knee injuries and still run like he is.' I say, 'Man, it's just favor from God.'"

Hang Time: Britton Colquitt’s Life on ‘Straight and Narrow’

Brian Howell GoVolsExtra.com October 2, 2010

DENVER - There was never a question about Britton Colquitt's talent.

The question was whether the former University of Tennessee punter could keep himself on track off the field.

"He's put himself through a lot of things, but he's come out on top and I knew he would," said Craig Colquitt, Britton's father and also a former UT and NFL punter. "I'm not surprised that he's in the NFL because of the talent.

"I'm just glad the NFL gave him a chance."

So far, Britton, 25, is making the most of his chance. He is in his second NFL season and his first with the Denver Broncos. Today, the Broncos play in Nashville against the Tennessee Titans (TV: WVLT, 1 p.m.). He is fifth in the NFL with a 47.3- yard-per-punt average. His long of 63 yards is the fifth-longest in the league this year and he ranks second with three punts landing inside the opponents' 10-yard line.

"I'm pleased because I feel like I'm hitting the ball good, but I feel I can always do better," said the Bearden High School graduate.

Britton spent the majority of the 2009 season on the ' practice squad. He was signed to the Broncos' active roster before the final week of 2009, but did not punt in a game.

The Broncos didn't hesitate in giving him the starting job this year. "You could see heading into training camp this July that nobody else was on the roster," said Britton's brother Dustin, who is in his sixth season with the Kansas City Chiefs.

"It was (Broncos special teams coach) Mike Priefer stepping out and saying, 'This guy is good enough to be our guy; we don't need any competition there.' "

Getting to this point hasn't been easy for Britton. He is the fourth member of his family to punt in the NFL - joining Craig, Dustin and cousin Jimmy, all of whom also were Vols - but he may have had the toughest path.

As a freshman at Tennessee in 2004, Britton was suspended after multiple alcohol- related charges. He was sentenced to nearly a year of probation.

Then, as a senior in 2008, Britton was arrested for driving under the influence.

Former UT coach Phillip Fulmer stripped Britton of his scholarship and suspended him for the first five games of the season.

"It was real hard - just the embarrassment and embarrassing my family," Britton said. "It was more dumb than (being) young. I don't necessarily think I was too young. It was not being focused on and knowing the opportunity I have."

Craig and Dustin helped Britton get through his trials.

"They always were like, 'If you're able to keep it straight, you'll be where we are (in the NFL),' " Britton said. "I'm just now starting to feel like I'm a grown man, because I feel they're all trusting me now."

Dustin said: "It's good to see him, good to see he's doing good and that his life's on the straight and narrow."

Britton insists he'll stay on that path now that he's been given a golden opportunity to play in the NFL. "I've definitely been through some tough things and they were all self-inflicted," Britton said. "I've put it behind me totally, but as far as knowing about it and letting it be a constant reminder of how easily things can be taken away, it's in the forefront. I just try to live my life the right way. I feel like definitely the tribulations I've gone through have made me who I am. Off the field is just as important, obviously."

At this point in his life, however, Britton's main focus is on the field. He's got a job to do with the Broncos.

"I did feel like I would get (a shot in the NFL)," he said. "I knew that I was good enough to be there and I had been blessed with that ability. But, it was just a matter of working hard enough and getting the coaches in the NFL to believe they could put their trust in me."

Brian Howell is a freelance contributor Helmets Off: Britton Colquitt

By Gray Caldwell DenverBroncos.com September 30, 2010

The second-year punter talks about his performance so far this season, the advantages of kicking in Denver and the history of NFL punters in his family in this edition of Helmets Off.

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- Britton Colquitt has taken over the full-time punting duties in just his second year in the NFL. He currently ranks fifth in the league in gross punting average -- ahead of his brother, Kansas City Chiefs punter Dustin Colquitt. This week, Colquitt -- whose father and cousin also punted in the NFL -- heads back home to Tennessee as the Broncos take on the Titans.

How do you feel you're performing three games into your professional career? "I feel like I'm getting better each game just as far as confidence and knowing how to be a professional and how to help the team out. I'm learning new stuff, and I feel like I could always help this team more -- I'm not going to give up in that area."

Can you tell right off your foot when you've kicked a huge punt -- like your 63-yarder against Seattle? "It's like hitting a monster drive in golf -- you almost don't feel it, then it just takes off. That's exactly how it felt. I knew it was going to be a little bit long and I was just hoping that we could cover. That's the thing about a punt that long, even if you hang it up there good, it's often times a little bit too much for your coverage team. So it felt good, yeah, but it feels way worse when it gets returned for 63 as well."

Last week you only allowed one return for four yards -- what goes into that? "I think hangtime is a big thing. Obviously the guys are doing great protecting me - - I don't ever feel any pressure or anything like that. We worked on last week after that (63-yard) punt, (Special Teams Coordinator Mike) Priefer was like, 'That was a great punt, but if you don't hit it 63 yards, then we get it down there and we cover them. If you hit it 50 yards, we'll end up covering that and there won't be any return.' So last week I just wanted to work on getting it higher. Not that the 63- yarder wasn't high, it was just too long. Especially here in Denver, you can concentrate on hitting it high and it's going to get at least 40, 45 yards usually. That's going to help our team the best, because I'm not worried about trying to hit long bombs."

Does kicking at high altitude really give you an advantage? "Yeah. The ball kind of jumps off your foot a little better, so you can not-knowingly get ahold of one and it's going to travel farther. On the upside of that, you can just be like, 'Alright, I'm going to hammer this as high as I can,' and it's going to travel at least long enough to where it's good field position. So that's good. It's definitely a place that you can really experiment and figure out your best punt."

Do you and your brother Dustin have a competition going for who will have the better year? "We're always rooting for each other. It's cool to be in the same division, and we both want to help our team win. As far as the statistical stuff, that's kind of on the side, that's not our focus. But I'm not going to lie, I called him this week -- he had a good game, but my numbers ended up fine and helped our team, and I told him, 'Your little brother had a higher net average than you this game,' and gave him a hard time about that. But he was just excited about it as I was. He's happy to see that. We like to give each other a hard time. Hopefully we'll be neck-and-neck and just kind of joke about it all year. The main thing is helping our teams win, and that's what both of our focuses are."

With your family history, did you always know you wanted to be a punter in the NFL? "No. I grew up playing soccer and basketball, and I always wanted to play football but our parents wouldn't let us until high school. I wanted to play receiver, so I did receiver and free safety. My freshman year, that was Dustin's first year ever playing, his senior year. He never touched the football field or anything, then he got out there and ends up getting invited to walk on to play football (at the University of Tennessee). My eyes were kind of opened that my dad did this, my cousin did this, Dustin is now at Tennessee -- that could be my future. I realized it came kind of naturally just from my dad showing us little stuff in the back yard. I was like, 'This could be a really good opportunity.' And once I played my first football game in high school, it was like any kind of championship game in any other sport was like one regular-season (football) game as far as energy and fans. I was like, 'This is the sport.'"

Was there any pressure to follow that path? "No. Everybody always would ask me that because seemingly there would be, but my parents never said, 'We want you to play football.' In fact, like I said, they wouldn't even let me play until high school. My dad, I guess he did it the right way -- he didn't pressure us, he taught us, and psychologically maybe he knew what he was doing letting us play in the backyard. He let us do what we wanted to do. We were good athletes -- we're not anymore because we're punters, we have to accept that -- but there was no pressure. Even at Tennessee I didn't feel pressured to fulfill that and do as good as they did. It was just something I saw as an opportunity and I enjoyed the pressure. If you don't enjoy the pressure as a punter or a kicker, then you're not going to make it."

Do you take just as much pride in your holding duties as punting? "When I came in last year, I was really struggling with that. Points are huge, and Matt Prater's a great kicker, and they want to utilize the best out of him. If he can't have confidence in somebody, then that's going to be bad for the team. I really worked on that in the offseason, got in and worked with Prater every day. Even now that we've gotten started, we haven't let up. We're at least 30 holds on the JUGS Machine every day, then getting some with Lonie (Paxton). We're doing that every day. I feel like I'm still getting better at it. The biggest thing with doing all that work is I don't feel scared anymore. Last year when I would get out there for a hold, I would be like, 'Don't mess this up, don't mess this up.' Now I feel comfortable out there, and I think that's made it a lot better, too."

Do you and Robert Ayers stick together in the locker room as Tennessee guys against the rest of the players from SEC schools? "Oh yeah. Especially a couple weeks ago when we played Florida, we've got to be all over the guys even though we haven't beaten Florida in a while. Me and Robert are talking smack. We definitely represent Tennessee and the SEC -- we're close on that. We play Georgia in a couple weeks, so we'll be all over Champ Bailey and Knowshon (Moreno), of course. It's amazing the pride that you take after you get out of there. Around these guys, it's awesome, I wear more Tennessee stuff now than I did when I was at Tennessee. You feel like I'm not just wearing the team's gear, now you're wearing it for pride. You're like, check out this orange -- everybody thinks it's the worst color ever, but I think it's the best."

The Vols are at LSU this Saturday -- what do you think? "That's big. It's a young team -- all these true freshmen playing. It's their first away game and it's in Death Valley. That's scary. I know in my freshman year in 2005, it was the Hurricane Katrina year, and we were playing down there in Death Valley. The game got cancelled on Saturday so we played on Monday. None of the UT fans were able to come, no cheerleaders, no band, no nothing. So literally in the whole stands there were maybe like 100 UT fans scattered. You could hardly see them. And it was still wet. We had Erik Ainge and Rick Clausen sharing duties (at quarterback) then. It was the loudest place we've ever been. The first half was a blowout, it was like 21-7 or something like that, they were just killing us. Then in the second half we come out, Rick's in there, and we start just beating them up and start running the ball. We score the first touchdown -- it literally is silent, because the UT fans were so scattered, you can't even hear anybody cheering. It was crazy. We ended up going into double overtime and winning that game. That was the coolest experience of my life, and it was the quietest stadium I've ever been in during the second half, compared to the loudest in the first half. So who knows, there might be a game like that, because they were supposed to beat us that year. So who knows." Broncos' Brian Dawkins' youthful fire burns bright

By Mike Klis The Denver Post October 10, 2010

Brian Dawkins can be such a kid sometimes. It's always on game day when the Broncos' strong safety is caught not acting his age, although his inner child does not necessarily appear during the game itself but in the minutes before.

It's when 44 of his uniformed teammates huddle to hear Dawkins' pregame pep talk. Dawkins' exhortation does not include the R-rated language that was prominently featured in the motivational talks of Al Wilson, the Broncos' captain for the better part of the past decade.

But no player leaves Dawkins' private sermon without wanting to immediately turn and slam into the first opposing jersey that jogs by.

"He has great messages," Broncos nose tackle Jamal Williams said. "Every game is different, because we have a different approach to each game. But the energy he brings to his messages, it's like there's a fire inside."

Sometimes, the fire struggles to escape. Dawkins becomes so hysterical with emotions, so overcome with desire, his spirited testimony can become temporarily trapped in his mind.

"Sometimes he goes into it trembling," said Renaldo Hill, Dawkins' partner at safety. "He'll get a little tongue-tied. We're waiting for him to get the words out. You have to be patient with him. You know the message he's trying to deliver but sometimes we're: 'Spit it out!' It's fun playing with him."

Quickness comes from anticipation. Anticipation comes from wisdom. It follows, then, that Dawkins, who has attained more wisdom than any other Broncos player, was on Tennessee quarterback Vince Young lickety-split during a third-and-11 blitz last Sunday that forced an incompletion and gave Kyle Orton one more chance to become a hero.

"When the coaches call my number to make a play," Dawkins said Friday at his locker, "I try my best to make them look smart."

Age, and still a beauty Against the Baltimore Ravens today at M&T Bank Stadium, Dawkins will play his final game as a 36-year-old. He turns 37 on Wednesday. That's — what? — 93 or so in football years.

"I don't even ask," said Don "Wink" Martindale, the Broncos' defensive coordinator. "I don't even want to know, so don't tell me how old he is. Sort of like the wife thing — 'I didn't realize you were that old,' OK?"

Against the Titans, Dawkins had a sack. He had another tackle for loss.

He had the hit on Young late in the game to help change a Broncos deficit into a Broncos victory.

Afterward, Dawkins was awarded a game ball for playing, as coach Josh McDaniels put it, "like a 24-year-old."

"I don't know about surprised, but amazed," said Ravens coach John Harbaugh, who spent 10 years in Philadelphia with Dawkins, including two as his defensive backs coach. "He's one of the guys I admire most in football. He is the spiritual and maybe the physical leader of that defense. He's the man, no doubt about it."

Nice words, but if Harbaugh is like all the other coaches who game plan against the Broncos' defense, he won't resist peeking in at Dawkins' age and trying to isolate him in coverage against tight end Todd Heap. Seattle tried with John Carlson. Indianapolis with Dallas Clark. The Titans with Bo Scaife.

That's fine. Next tight end to have a 50-yard receiving game will be the first.

"I play the way that I play, and when I can no longer do it at that level, I'll sit it down," Dawkins said. "It's not that time, so I'm going to continue to do it."

Hard work and blessings

The question started about four years ago, and it has become more frequent with each inspiring performance or milestone. He was inspiring last week and has a birthday this week, so why not again: How is Dawkins able to continue playing so well at an age when almost all of his contemporaries are now taking in their NFL Sundays from the sofa?

Almost always, Dawkins responds by saying he is blessed. With good reason. He has seen many players who have been talented, worked hard and taken care of their bodies.

And still they broke down, forced to stop playing.

Dawkins knows he's lucky. Not lucky, blessed. Not that this man of strong Christian conviction has ever taken his blessings for granted. He has never said so, but for all the hardworking players he has met, it's difficult to imagine anyone who has better treated his body.

"I eat right," he said. "I don't allow any junk food into my body. Every day, I'm having some work on my body. Every day. Different types of massages. Not just the deep-tissue massages but all kinds of other massages. I get something worked on every day to make sure everything is moving right."

Twice a week, he sleeps in a hyperbaric oxygen chamber. The vessel, which aids in a body's recovery, was awkward at first, but has long reached the comforts of routine. Dawkins brings his Bible for reading material, maybe his iPad to play games "and I'm out within minutes," he said.

He is a family man, a husband to his high school sweetheart Connie, a father to their four children. Yet, on Tuesdays, the players' off day, he always makes a trip into the trainer's room for treatment.

"My family is very understanding of the commitment it takes for me to continue to play at a high level in this game," Dawkins said. "My wife, she will push me. She makes sure I get in here and do what I have to do."

Harbaugh spoke about how Dawkins is such a man. Ray Rice, the Ravens' star running back, said, "When you look at a man, to define a man, he's somebody you want to model yourself after."

But today, game day in Baltimore, Broncos players will gather around and Dawkins will become a kid again. The beauty of his speech is he knows at least one man will come away inspired.

"On Sunday, just let Dawkins be Dawkins," Hill said. "Get out of his way and let him do his thing. You know at some point a moment is going to come, and it's so unpredictable. You can't anticipate it, but it's just: Let him do his thing." Fielding His Role

By Chris Gentilviso DenverBroncos.com Friday, February 19, 2010

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- On the first day of 2009 training camp, Ronald Fields was direct about his plans for the regular season. "I'm ready," Fields said. "I'm very much ready. I trained hard during the summer break, worked hard out in Texas, and had good OTAs. I'm going to have a good training camp and just keep pushing forward to get better." Sixteen games later, Fields succeeded in staying true to his word. He set a career-high 37 tackles, while helping the Broncos finish seventh in the NFL in total yards allowed at 315 per game. That confidence stems from having a position coach who brings out the best results. After one season of regular-season meetings with defensive line coach Wayne Nunnely, Fields had little trouble expressing what the veteran coach brings to the table. "He's been doing it for 12 years," said Fields of Nunnely. "He did it at San Diego a few years ago when they were the No. 1 run defense. So I believe in what he does and what he teaches, and I stick to that." While Fields sticks to what Nunnely preaches, Nunnely returned the favor by sticking with Fields. As the nose tackle in the 3-4 scheme, he demanded double teams on a routine basis. At a position of heavy contact, even Nunnely was thankful during Week 12 that Fields was in good playing condition. "He's doing a good job," said Nunnely of Fields' play prior to Denver's Dec. 6 win in Kansas City. "He's been -- knock on wood -- healthy for the most part this season. He's getting better every week." Fields kept those words living, notching nine of his 37 tackles over the final four games of the season. He started all 16 games for the first time in his career and was one of only eight Broncos to achieve that this season. That consistency will prove to be a benefit come next season. Fields arrived in Denver with 49 games of NFL experience as a member of the San Francisco 49ers. But most of that competition came against foes not on a typical AFC West schedule. Of those 49 contests played, 19 came against former NFC West division rivals. More importantly, Fields had never played a preseason or regular-season game at INVESCO Field at Mile High. After his 2009 effort, that's all in the past. "I know what to expect, as far as playing in this conference," Fields said. "Playing with everybody here, I saw a lot of new faces, a lot of new people I never played against. Now I know how to approach certain situations and I learned a lot from that. It's another stepping stone for me." Time has arrived for Broncos' Haggan The linebacker who has played mainly backup and special teams for the last five years grabs his chance to be the go-to guy.

Jeff Legwold The Denver Post August 11, 2010

Maybe next year. That was how Mario Haggan used to look at things.

Yes, maybe next year. Or the year after. Or the three after that. Suddenly one year turns to six and 73 career games have gone by and you still haven't been the starter in one.

"I did get frustrated, no question," Haggan said. "But I don't look back, because I always told myself through all of that, if I got the opportunity I would be ready to grab it and never look back. So, I'm grabbing it."

And Haggan is not using the rearview mirror. Because with Josh McDaniels' arrival with the Broncos before the 2009 season, Haggan found the open door he needed not only to be a starter but the go-to guy.

A backup linebacker and special-teams player for his five seasons in Buffalo and for the eight games he played for the Broncos under Mike Shanahan in 2008, Haggan's fortunes have certainly shifted.

He was the first player to get a contract extension from the McDaniels-Brian Xanders regime — a two-year extension last September — he started 16 games in the '09 season, was named a team captain in '09 and this year has been lauded for his versatility.

Having been moved in the offseason to an inside linebacker spot, Haggan has moved back to outside linebacker as the Broncos adjust to the loss of Elvis Dumervil in the defense.

"We feel like Mario can do a lot of the things we need," McDaniels said. "He has that versatility we want and the ability to play at a lot of different places. We always try to look at how a player will fit with us, we're not always concerned with what they did somewhere else."

It is one of the amazing quirks in the league that a player can be looked at so differently in different NFL outposts. Where Haggan seemingly couldn't crack the top level of the Bills' depth chart — even in years he believed he should have, Haggan said — he is now part of the Broncos' solution to a number of problems.

"I always felt like I was a starter-type player," Haggan said. "I just know what type of player that I am. For whatever reason, some of the guys were chosen to play ahead of me. I wasn't mad at them, because I know every guy in this league is trying to beat a guy out."

Where some may let bitterness erode their work habits or their play on the field when things don't go their way, Haggan said he would simply think about his mother, Wanda Burnett, and what he would have to say to her if he was forced to look her in the eye without having given all he could.

Something Haggan now says dates back to his older brother, Michael, going to prison for armed robbery when Mario was in junior high.

"She saw one son go to prison — that was the worst day in her life. I knew I couldn't disappoint her," Haggan said. "My mom worked her whole life, she raised us. I love her, I honor her every day. Not one day has she not gone to work, so I couldn't ever stand there and say I quit on something because it didn't happen the way I think it should have."

It's also why Haggan stays after practice many days working on some special-teams technique with a younger player, or a player newer to the team — Tuesday it was fellow linebacker Akin Ayodele.

He says he's always on the lookout for someone who's walking the path he once did.

"He was one of the first guys to come up to me after I got traded here," said linebacker Joe Mays, who came to the Broncos just after the start of training camp. "He was right there, about special teams, about playing linebacker, about everything. That tells you what he's all about."

"I've talked to about 10 guys already this year, all over the league, who are in what my situation was," Haggan said. "They're trying to fight out of it. I tell them go in and don't let people label you, go to work, and when you get the opportunity seize it.

"But if you don't do the work, when the opportunity comes you won't even know it's there. That's what I tell guys. Work first and be ready. That's what I did."

Better late than never

Mario Haggan's career has flourished since Josh McDaniels became Broncos coach.

Before McDaniels

• Five seasons in Buffalo, one in Denver

• 0 starts, 41 tackles, 0 forced fumbles

With McDaniels (2009 season)

• 16 starts, 55 tackles, three forced fumbles Broncos' Ryan Harris gives back off field

By Lindsay H. Jones The Denver Post November 21, 2010

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.

Ryan Harris spent his entire offseason in Denver, rehabbing from surgery to repair the toe injury that ended his 2009 season early.

Harris, though, made sure to make the most of those months, and not just from a football perspective.

Between physical therapy sessions and doctors' appointments, Harris built a business: Harris Home Health, a home health care business that launched in September and is scheduled to begin caring for its first patients next month. The company employs licensed nurses as well as other caregivers to provide a variety of health care and other assistance to elderly or disabled people in their homes.

It is his first major endeavor in the business world. He said he was inspired by his grandmother, Betty Wilcox, who he said was "happiest at home" before she had to move recently to an assisted living facility.

And as far as football, Harris is at last healthy. He missed five total games this year, all because of an ankle injury. He returned to the starting lineup at right tackle last week against Kansas City in the offensive line's best performance of the season.

Q: Where and when did you get the idea to start a home health care business?

A: It's an idea of mine for a while. My family, like many do, had to take care of my grandmother. She was happiest when she was in her home, and I had a neighbor who passed away and he chose to spend his last days at home. I saw how much they benefited from being able to be cared for at home.

Q: What was the process like of getting the business off the ground? Where does it stand now?

A: I did the majority of the work, the foundation of it, in the offseason. The biggest thing is working with the state of Colorado. They have a very thorough and lengthy process, as it should be. The hardest part is getting all the registration in order. . . . We're still going through some of the administrative things. Trying to find the right people. We have people waiting. Hopefully we'll start going in homes Dec. 1. Q: You seem very invested personally and professionally in the business. Why do it now?

A: I wanted to start something, especially here in Denver. A lot of guys have businesses, some have bars or restaurants, and I wanted to do something that mattered. During the football season, I'm a football player. This is my passion, my joy in life. So in the offseason I have an opportunity to use my degrees, and that's how it came about.

Q: Speaking of college (Harris graduated from Notre Dame with degrees in political science and economics policy), what's it been like having so many of your college teammates here in Denver? (There are five Notre Dame alums on the Broncos' 53- man roster; all played together at the same time in South Bend, Ind.):

A: It has been cool to really have some brothers here. Especially with (quarterback) Brady Quinn and (offensive lineman) Eric Olsen, since I spend the most time with them. Brady and I, we were together from freshman to senior year, so we grew up together. To be able to spend time with them now, it's really surreal. I'm not sure if it has happened in the NFL, to have five guys who played at the same time all on the active roster together.

Q: So you five still hang out regularly here in Denver?

A: We have "Domer Dinners" on Thursdays. We just get together, pick a restaurant, and have some food, some friendly conversations. Brady was the one who put it together. He was like, "We need to be the ones getting together." It's great because we're all a lot alike and we're all friends.

Q: This is the final year of your rookie contract. Do you see yourself staying in Denver?

A: Colorado is awesome. Putting the health care business here is putting my roots here. I definitely want to stay. I like the team, I like the organization, and I like the city but I also know it's not in my control. I've done everything I can to show my team that this is my priority in life. And I think I've done that.

Benefits: Northeast Denver and Five Points communities Broncos' Renaldo Hill fashioned by his family

By Lindsay H. Jones The Denver Post September 12, 2010

Renaldo Hill might not be the biggest name nor the biggest star in the Broncos' secondary, not when he's playing alongside Champ Bailey and Brian Dawkins, two future Hall of Famers.

But there are plenty of players and coaches inside Dove Valley who might vote Hill as "most valuable." Hill, who goes by the nickname Notty, is softspoken and studious, but he has one of the most respected voices in the locker room.

Hill, in his 10th year in the NFL and second in Denver, might also deserve the title of "best dressed." Hill studied merchandise management at Michigan State and had dreams of being a fashion buyer before beginning his lengthy NFL career.

Q: How would you describe your style?

A: That's my thing, fashion. I try to stay up with the trends. I'm always in the magazines to look at what's new and what's hot. If I see something I like, I'll try to get a tailor to make it. As far as suits, I like more tailored. Maybe not strictly European, but close to it. As far as other fashion, people would probably say I take risks because they might see it on me and say, 'That looks good,' but they probably wouldn't take the chance. But to me, it doesn't seem like a risk. I like to think of myself as a trendsetter.

Q: Who got you started playing football?

A: My older brother started playing, and once he got into it, that's what my middle brother wanted to do and then what I wanted to do. It was us three boys; I'm the baby. It was always a family thing and something that we still hold on to. My oldest brother, his kid is playing now and is in high school. It's something that we just enjoy as a family.

Q: What's the dynamic like now with your brothers? (Note: The middle brother, Ray Hill, played cornerback at Michigan State and four seasons in the NFL between 1998-2001 and now lives in Dallas. His oldest brother, Lawrence Austin, lives in Michigan with his family.)

A: We get on the phone and we talk sports, and that's been our relationship as long as I can remember. I was always following those guys to the park and trying to emulate what they were doing and just trying to get better. That was one of the things about being a younger sibling — you always want to be better. I was always trying to outdo them in whatever sport it was, and as the middle brother, whatever accolades he got, I was always trying to get one more over him.

Q: What sort of uncle are you to your brothers' kids?

A: I try to take them to the Bahamas or something like that. They're in high school. I think the Bahamas is something they really enjoy. They tell me I'm their favorite uncle — probably shouldn't tell my brother Ray that though, but that's what they tell me. They say I'm the fun uncle. I still keep up with their lingo and stuff that's going on. I guess they feel they can relate to me a little more.

Q: You switched from cornerback to safety in 2005 when you were in Oakland. Why did you switch positions and what was the transition like?

A: They had , a first-round corner, and Charles Woodson was on the other side, and they drafted , who was a first-rounder, and Stanford Routt, who was a second-rounder, so it was kind of like, where do I fit in? I was open to the idea of making a move. In training camp, they moved me to free safety and saw I caught on quick, and then they tried me at strong safety, and I caught on to that too. After that, they told me I was too good a player to sit on the sideline and we have to make room for you.

Q: It's been five seasons since then. No looking back?

A: No, but I try not to forget what I learned as a cornerback. I try to stay fresh with my cornerback skills because sometimes we come down and have to cover a receiver sometime, and I want to make sure I'm prepared and ready to go when that happens. Broncos' versatile Larsen specializes at fullback

By John Schreier The Denver Post August 18, 2010

As the backfield carousel continued spinning at the Broncos' training camp last week, one player assumed the same stance at the same position on each repetition.

While his teammates were practicing the fundamentals of sweeps, counters and dives, Spencer Larsen — for the first time in his third NFL season — lined up exclusively at fullback on each handoff.

The man who started his career as a linebacker and is famous for starting on both sides of the ball and on special teams has finally found a home in Denver's backfield.

At least he's not a complete stranger to playing offense.

"I was all right in high school," Larsen said. "Let's see how it transfers to 10 years from then. I was used to having the ball in my hands."

Larsen tends to get the ball in his hands regardless of his position. He started at quarterback in high school in Gilbert, Ariz., but his 124 tackles as a senior were his ticket to the University of Arizona. He notched three interceptions and eight fumble recoveries as a Wildcat.

Despite being named to all-Pacific 10 first team as a senior, Larsen lasted until the sixth round of the 2008 draft. And like most late-round selections, he faced an uphill battle to earn a roster spot in his first training camp.

"There are new rookies every year and new guys you're competing with," he said. "I think that's the biggest thing. It's a constant struggle."

Not only did he earn the right to wear the orange and blue in 2008, he appeared in 14 games as a linebacker and special-teams ace — and got his first taste of fullback in an injury-ravaged backfield. The rookie started at linebacker, fullback and on the kickoff team in a game in Atlanta in November.

"Growing up, especially in college, I never thought I'd be playing (fullback)," Larsen said. "But things happen and different scenarios pop up, and you just want to handle them."

Larsen practiced on both sides of the ball in 2009, but focused more on defense with the return of starting fullback Peyton Hillis. But when Hillis was traded to Cleveland this offseason, Larsen rejoined the backfield. Though he was listed at linebacker and fullback coming into training camp, he never donned the blue practice jerseys of defensive players. The linebacker tag was officially removed last week — to no one's surprise.

"Last year, he was kind of going both ways," linebacker Robert Ayers said. "And this year, he's been fullback, but we saw it coming."

The player who had spent most of his career hurling himself at running backs was now lead-blocking for them. But the transition has gone smoothly, according to running back Bruce Hall, who called Larsen a "steadying influence."

"He's a guy that you know every play is going to go in there every play and give it his all," Hall said. "He's going to go in there, make contact. He's going to go in there and thump."

The shift to fullback also has made Larsen learn the intricacies and responsibilities of his position — something he has dedicated himself to during training camp.

"I've kind of learned more instead of just running into somebody," he said. "I try to have better technique in opening up, getting my body out of the way when I'm blocking. A lot of times, I can be in the hole even though I had a good collision with him."

While Larsen is the lone Broncos fullback, he refuses to assume his roster spot is guaranteed. And given his new home in the Denver backfield, he wants to line up in that position, that stance, every day for years to come.

"I never feel comfortable like that, and you can never feel comfortable like that," Larsen said. "You use that as motivation. I have a family, and we're here, but I try to play as best I can so I can secure that spot."

McDaniels' Broncos: Right time, place for Brandon Lloyd

By Jeff Legwold The Denver Post October 24, 2010

Deep down, he always believed he had the speed and the hands, and that, no matter what he had said or what had been said about him, he had heart.

Yet Brandon Lloyd went to work each day, frustration and bitterness enveloping his career, believing he was missing the one thing he could not give himself.

"Opportunity, man," the Broncos wide receiver said. "I call this a league of opportunity, and when you don't have the opportunity, I can't even lie, you feel like 'screw this.' But my competitive nature wouldn't let me accept that somebody else was better than me, wouldn't let me accept I couldn't be a guy a coach saw as one of his guys. You can quit, or you can keep working and hope you find your place."

Lloyd has found his time, and place, one that took seven seasons and four teams to discover. It was a maddening journey that has the 29-year-old headed to stardom. Lloyd is leading the NFL in reception yardage with 663 as the season nears the halfway point.

He has good company among late bloomers.

Hall of Famer Johnny Unitas, whom many consider the greatest quarterback ever, was once cut by the Steelers. The Colts found him playing semipro ball.

The Raiders, who will be at Invesco Field at Mile High today, made a legacy for themselves long ago as a haven for castoffs. Quarterback Jim Plunkett led Oakland to two Super Bowls after having been labeled a failure in New England. More recently, quarterback Rich Gannon had a journeyman's career until winning a league MVP award for Oakland in his 12th season, and for his fourth team, in 2002.

And the current Broncos, with Lloyd putting up huge numbers (34 catches) and quarterback Kyle Orton second in passing, have their own players who have found the intersection of opportunity and timing.

"I've grown as a player, no question about it," Orton said. "But in a skill position, on offense, at some point you have to find the right combination of system, players around you and then go out and play good football. Do I think I'm that much better compared to what I was? No, but I think I fit right in the system, I fit right in the players around me, and I have a lot better chance of being successful and showing the kind of player I am than I did before." Defining his role

Broncos coach Josh McDaniels didn't know exactly what he was getting when he signed the 6-foot, 194-pound Lloyd a year ago.

"We feel like we look at players for how they fit what we do," McDaniels said. "They start here with a clean slate. If we believe they can fit specific jobs with our team, they can come in and make their own role."

Still, neither Lloyd nor Orton exactly found the red carpet rolled out upon their arrival in Denver last summer.

Lloyd flashed big-play ability in his time with the 49ers (who drafted him in the fourth round in 2003), Washington and Chicago but never reached a level of consistency. He also developed a reputation from some of his former coaches and teammates as somewhat of a malcontent, a brooder at times.

His mood didn't brighten any when he was declared inactive for the first 14 games last season.

"I just kept going, kept practicing hard even though I was unhappy," Lloyd said. "I think Josh recognized the talent was there, the desire was there, the competitiveness was there. There just wasn't room for me last year. But I didn't accept that I wasn't playing.

"My competitive nature is not going to allow me to sit here and let you tell me anybody else is better than me. Period. It's not. It's not me being a crybaby, me being a sore loser or me being a poor teammate. When I'm not allowed to get a chance, I act out of character."

Lloyd added that he continually pestered receivers coach Adam Gase a year ago, asking why he wasn't playing, not always in polite language.

He was finally activated for the final two games and caught four passes for 95 yards in the season finale against Kansas City.

The turning point in his Broncos' career came last March, when McDan- iels called him on the first day of free agency to say the team would sign him to a new deal. From that moment, Lloyd has gone from an afterthought to a big-play receiver in the pass-happy McDaniels attack.

Following the game plan

Orton, meanwhile, who often heard who else should be playing quarterback in his time with the Bears, has four 300-yard-plus passing games this season. "There's always a chance for doubt to creep in at some point," Orton said. "Early in my career, though, I felt like I wasn't struggling like maybe everybody else thought. I thought I had a successful early part of my career. I executed the game plan they wanted me to execute. The numbers didn't look great, but I was asked to throw for 150 yards and no turnovers. It worked, and we won a lot of games.

"I felt like I was doing what the coaches asked me to do, and that I could do more if I was asked to do more. Same thing now. I'm throwing for a lot of yards, but I still think all I'm doing is executing the game plan that's given to me."

Or, as Lloyd said: "Coaches and personnel people have guys they see as their guys. At some point, to be one of those guys, they have to take a chance on you and you have to be ready for it."

Lindsay H. Jones The Denver Post August 9, 2010

Broncos fans might have forgotten about Brandon Lloyd last season, and you can't blame them. Though Lloyd was on the 53-man roster all season, he didn't dress for a game until after Christmas.

But inside the Broncos' locker room, everyone was aware of his presence. He's the guy with the booming laugh and up-tempo iPod, the team's unofficial DJ/stand-up comedian.

And come September, he could add the title of starting wide receiver.

Throughout the first week of training camp, Lloyd has been a fixture in the Broncos' first unit when they use three receivers, lining up outside opposite of Jabar Gaffney, with Eddie Royal in the slot.

"I know exactly what's expected of me, and now it's just going out and playing football. I think that's all any player wishes that they had. It's that black and white," Lloyd said. "You just want the chance to play football, and I have that opportunity, and I think that's why my confidence is so high and I'm extremely happy."

Happy wasn't a word Lloyd could use much in 2009. In fact, he described much of last season as "miserable" as he participated in every practice and attended every meeting, only to be inactive in the first 14 games. Lloyd was used to playing, and contributing — he played in at least 11 games in five of his six previous NFL seasons.

"Being a starter in this league before and having had big-time seasons, I'm sure it was tough for him," Royal said. "Now he has another chance, and he's out there making plays for us."

Lloyd, for all his frustrations of never getting on the field, managed to keep perspective. He had been a free agent before the 2009 season, coming off a knee injury, and his phone wasn't ringing. Then the Broncos finally called in June.

Lloyd was the receiver making the most eye-popping catches in the 2009 training camp, and by September, he was one of six receivers to make the active roster. But he didn't dress for a game until the second-to-last game of the season at Philadelphia, when Royal was out with a concussion. The Broncos lost two other receivers that game when Brandon Stokley was ejected and Kenny McKinley was injured on a kick return. In an instant, Lloyd went from an afterthought to a crucial component in the Broncos' offense.

Lloyd caught four passes for 22 yards in that game and added four catches and 95 yards a week later in the finale against Kansas City.

Broncos coaches saw enough from Lloyd in those two games — and from Lloyd's performance in practice — to re-sign him on the first day of free agency.

"I knew there was going to be some changes in the receiving corps, and hopefully we were going to do some things in the offense that would complement my style of play. That was something that Josh had expressed to me," Lloyd said. "Between playing with (quarterback Kyle) Orton and being comfortable with the locker room, it was the right fit for me."

The Broncos likely will keep six wide receivers this season. With Gaffney, Royal and rookie draft picks Demaryius Thomas and Eric Decker figuring to have their spots secure, Lloyd is positioning himself to nab one of the remaining spots. Veteran Stokley and upstart Matthew Willis, who has been with the Broncos since late in 2008 as a member of the practice squad, also are in the mix.

"They're playing like players that have been in a system before, even though they haven't played a lot of game snaps in that system, and that's good for them," McDaniels said. "That means they did a lot of work on their own, they paid attention in meetings last year.

"Particularly for guys that have been in the National Football League for more than a year, to go through what they went through — they sat and waited, and they're taking advantage of their opportunities now."

Broncos RB Moreno shows signs of improvement

By Mike Klis The Denver Post Posted: 06/06/2010

Wesley Woodyard shared a little secret regarding Broncos running back Knowshon Moreno.

NFL practices are often kept secret from the public. Teams don't sell tickets. The media usually aren't allowed to observe.

But practice is often where a player makes his move toward a roster spot, toward a depth-chart promotion, toward improvement. There is even speculation the move toward greatness starts with practice.

As someone who is in on the Broncos' secret practices, Woodyard, a third-year linebacker and special- teams leader, sent along a privileged anecdote that suggests Moreno will be a much-improved running back in 2010.

"I will say this is the first time he's beaten me several times in one-on-one tackle drills," Woodyard said. "I think he's more comfortable with himself. He's playing faster. It's a big difference with him."

There is perhaps no greater backhanded compliment than to offer how one has improved. Moreno wasn't bad as a rookie last year, rushing for 947 yards, catching 28 passes and scoring nine touchdowns.

But Moreno also fell short of the lofty expectations that accompany a No. 12 overall draft pick. He averaged only 3.8 yards per carry, including a get-the-punt-team- ready 2.7 rush average during the team's season-ending, four-game losing streak.

And so as Moreno prepares for his second NFL season, there is room for improvement.

"I'm definitely more comfortable," he said. "Last year, everything was moving so fast. You had to stay on top of that, remember this, do this. Now it all comes back to you. You just get into a flow, and you can start to flow now instead of thinking."

Think body parts of a running back and there are thoughts of churning legs, fancy feet, shifty hips, maybe powerful shoulders. But running backs also have brains, sometimes to their detriment.

There is part of the brain that thinks about coaches' instruction and remembering the playbook. "I felt that a little bit last year," Moreno said. "I was just trying to make sure I was right."

There is another part of the brain that can absorb an assignment without thinking about it. Freed of thought, instincts send signals to a running back's feet, legs and hips.

Run, Knowshon, run.

Maybe that's why running backs such as Emmitt Smith and Walter Payton also averaged less than 4.0 yards per carry as rookies, only to finish as the top two running backs in NFL history.

"This year I feel like I'm out there letting it all out," Moreno said. "I'm loose."

And it shows, if only to those let in on the secret of practice. Soon enough, all will see what Moreno feels, and what his coaches and teammates can see. The Broncos begin their preseason schedule Aug. 15 at Cincinnati and their regular season Sept. 12 at Jacksonville.

"He's doing a really nice job of carrying out his assignments in every aspect of his game," Broncos coach Josh McDaniels said.

"He's been impressive in terms of his pass protection, which as a rookie he could do it, but it wasn't always consistent. Now it's been pretty consistent.

"He gets open and he catches the ball in the passing game on a regular basis, daily, and should be an impact player in the passing game for us. He's in his second year, and he knows more what to do. We're expecting a good year from him in a lot of different ways."

Besides eliminating arresting thought, Moreno has improved physically.

He has added two pounds, all seemingly in shoulder muscle, from his 210-pound playing weight of last season. And remember, he suffered a knee injury on his second preseason carry last year and wasn't 100 percent recovered until close to midseason.

He'll also be running behind a larger offensive line. Currently, 14 of the 15 offensive linemen on the Broncos' roster weigh at least 300 pounds. Better for a Moreno mash of a 1-yard on third-and-inches.

"It's definitely a big emphasis," Moreno said. "You've got to keep that drive going. You can't go back to the sideline after third-and-inches."

Better, perhaps, for Moreno to run free at the beginning of his run, so he can record a few more runs of 20-plus yards. "It is a little beefy up there," Moreno said. "But they're moving too. It's not like it's beefy and sluggish to their spot. Those big boys are moving."

Removed is the hefty hype Moreno lugged into last season as a highly touted rookie. It's just football this year. Healthy, uninhibited, free-wheeling, running-free football.

"I haven't noticed him getting yelled at by any of the coaches, telling him he needs to run this route or whatever," Woodyard said. "He's out there telling other people what to do, so that's always a positive sign."

Some secrets are better off told.

Breaking Through

By Gray Caldwell DenverBroncos.com Tuesday, April 13, 2010

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- It's hard for Knowshon Moreno to reflect on his rookie campaign. Last season he led all rookies in rushing yards with 947, yards from scrimmage with 1,160 and total touchdowns with nine -- becoming just the 14th player since the 1970 merger to do so -- but he knows he had even more in him. "I watched a little bit of film here, recently, and I just made a lot of mistakes -- I guess that comes with your first year," he said, mentioning missed reads and mistakes in protection. "It's just tough. Especially when you see you're making a big mistake, you're like, 'Aw, man.' It's something you work on so hard, then come gameday you kind of make a mistake. But at the same time, I'm going to get better." His coach and teammates aren't as hard on the second-year pro, who tied for third in the Associated Press Offensive Rookie of the Year voting. After all, Moreno played in all 16 games and started nine last season, a big departure from the typical college season of 12 or 13 games. Backfield teammate Correll Buckhalter said he remembers that transition, and it can be hard for any rookie, especially at a punishing position like running back. "After playing a month of preseason and 17 weeks of football and playoffs if the team gets in, that's a lot," Buckhalter said. "A rookie doesn't know how to deal with that. At some point in the season, he kind of hit a wall. For them to be able to go through an offseason, that will kind of prepare their minds and bodies for the upcoming season, because they know what they're facing." Moreno admitted that even though he was still having fun and felt healthy at the end of the season, he was "a little bit" worn down. He credited part of that to the process surrounding the NFL Draft, when prospects have to jump from the NFL Scouting Combine to their school's Pro Day to trying out for a team to heading to mini-camps, training camp, preseason and then the season. This offseason, he can focus more on preparing for the upcoming year, and that's exactly what he is doing. Working with strength and conditioning coach Rich Tuten, Moreno hasn't missed a workout this offseason. He has met with new running backs coach Eric Studesville - - who has guided Tiki Barber, Marshawn Lynch, Willis McGahee and Fred Jackson to a total of seven 1,000-yard rushing seasons in the last nine years -- several times, watching film and discussing what he can work on to improve in 2010. "As of right now, I just want to get faster, get stronger, get my wind up there, also," Moreno said. "Mostly just help out the team. That's all I care about. Individual goals will come if you're working hard." While Moreno expects improvement from himself in 2010, his coach and teammates are speaking up for him the loudest. Buckhalter said his backfield teammate "is going to be a great running back in this league," and Head Coach Josh McDaniels believes the development of Moreno combined with Buckhalter's veteran leadership can can help improve a rushing attack that ranked in the middle of the league last year with 114.8 yards on the ground per game. "There were games when we had great production between (Moreno) and Buck, and we look forward to having him improve," McDaniels said. "He hasn't been in our system a calendar year. He hasn't been in the NFL a calendar year, so we feel like we have a lot of potential there. We have high expectations for Knowshon in his second year." MARSHALL SIGNS TENDER Brandon Marshall, a restricted free agent, signed his tender with the team on Tuesday. He was tendered with a first-round draft choice on March 3. He joins Chris Kuper, who signed his tender in March. The team's three remaining restricted free agents, Elvis Dumervil, Kyle Orton and Tony Scheffler, have yet to sign their tenders.

Memory of 9/11 hits Broncos rookie 24/7

Jeff Legwold The Denver Post May 3, 2010

Time marches on through a maze of circled dates on a calendar: a birthday here, an anniversary there — dates that come back around each year to fill life's chapters.

"And I know Sept. 11 will always be one of those for me," Broncos rookie offensive lineman Eric Olsen said. "So many things happened, so many things could have happened. People say they'll never forget it, and everybody has a different reason why."

For Olsen, a Staten Island, N.Y., native, that day on the calendar will always be a time for him to balance his family's good fortune in the sorrow-filled tragedy of the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center in 2001 that killed 2,752 people, including 343 firefighters.

Olsen's father, Andy, is now a retired New York City firefighter. But without a promotion just three days before the attacks, Andy Olsen wouldn't have seen two sons play high school football, wouldn't have seen his oldest son play on autumn Saturdays at Notre Dame, wouldn't be able to speak of all he is thankful for now.

"He got promoted to lieutenant Sept. 8, 2001," Eric Olsen said. "If he wouldn't have been promoted, he would be dead just like a lot of the guys he worked with. It saved his life. It's the reason he's still here."

Because of his promotion, Andy Olsen was in officer training at Fort Totten in Queens, and not in Ladder 80, his Staten Island firehouse the day of the attacks. When he was called on duty shortly after the first plane hit one of the Twin Towers, he had to drive from Queens to his home in Staten Island to get his gear and then to lower Manhattan.

"When they called him in, he had to go all the way from Queens, to home, all the way down Manhattan, so that actually saved his life, because the second tower went down just before he got in there," Eric Olsen said. "He was very fortunate. But he was digging through the rubble when he first got there and they found a (fire) truck that was crushed. It was from the (fire) house he used to work in. All of those guys didn't make it, all of those guys he knew were dead. It was all pretty gruesome. I'm not sure he could talk about it all."

"I'm like a cat, you know?" Andy Olsen said. "Maybe I used two or three lives on the job, maybe four or five really, but I'm still around. No, honestly, I feel very, very, very fortunate to be here doing what we're doing, to be enjoying my family and my retirement."

Eric Olsen was in the eighth grade in 2001 — at Intermediate School 24 — and the day of the attacks he said a neighbor pulled him out of school after the towers collapsed because his mother, an emergency room nurse, had also been called to work.

It was "30-something hours" before Andy Olsen's family knew his fate.

"Cellphones weren't working, things were crazy, they were digging through the rubble trying to find anybody alive. I was staying with my grandma and my younger brother (Drew), so we didn't really know he was OK until he got home," Eric Olsen said. "A lot of people we knew, kids I knew, their dads didn't come home."

Last season, Olsen's senior year at Notre Dame, Andy Olsen and his wife, Joanne, lived in a condo in South Bend, Ind. They did it, Andy said, to enjoy "the whole experience" of their oldest son's final year of college football.

Once a week the Olsens would have 12 Irish offensive linemen over for dinner, evenings Andy Olsen now says were among his favorites of the football season.

"Believe me, I couldn't tell you how much meat I went through," Andy Olsen said with a laugh. "You cook at the firehouse, you're cooking for 11 (people) and 11 firefighters are going to eat more than the average person, but 12 offensive linemen? That's a whole other level right there.

"You know we probably would have done it anyway if I was retired like I am now, lived in South Bend for the season, but sure the events of 9/11 impacted us some with that. I was just happy to be able to do it."

Eric Olsen said his father, who retired in 2003 after being injured in a fire at a Brooklyn auto dealership, is already planning trips to the Front Range, already hoping to see what Denver has to offer.

"I think in a lot of ways watching me and my brother (now a safety at Gettysburg College) play football has been good for him. Maybe he's been able to tell his story a little and not hold all that in," Olsen said. "And all of his retired buddies who are still alive came out to watch me play at Notre Dame and they will all probably come out here.

"They're already making plans about it, really excited about the Broncos, about the skiing, about Colorado. "They're going to be pretty mad if I don't make the team. I can't let them down. That's pretty good incentive right there, you know. You don't want to let those guys down."

Staten Island's Eric Olsen has his "dream come true" after being drafted by Denver Broncos

By Jim Waggoner Staten Island Advance April 25, 2010

Ex-Notre Dame football coach Charlie Weis stood firmly in Eric Olsen's corner yesterday afternoon, as the NFL Draft moved steadily into the later rounds.

"Don't worry ... everything will work out," repeatedly encouraged Weis to his former offensive captain via text messages as the Olsen family waited anxiously in their Great Kills home.

Weis was right, everything did work out.

Olsen, a 6-foot-4, 306-pound offensive lineman, was selected by the Denver Broncos in the sixth round, becoming the first Staten Island resident drafted since Maryland cornerback Lewis Sanders was picked by Cleveland with the first pick of the fourth round in 2000.

"I was waiting for that call ... it was my moment," said Olsen of the telephone conversation with Denver head coach Josh McDaniels at approximately 3:30 p.m. "It's a dream come true, for sure. All of my hard work has paid off from high school and college."

Olsen was surrounded by his parents, Andy and Joanne, his younger brother Drew, and a house full of family friends when he was tabbed by the Broncos with the 183rd overall pick of the three-day marathon.

"He (McDaniels) just told me they're excited to be bringing me in," said Olsen, who played 44 games in his four-year Notre Dame career, starting 31 games. "It's a great opportunity ... I'll have a chance to compete for a job and that's all I really wanted."

The former Advance All Star began his career at Brooklyn's Poly Prep, where he played for Staten Island Sports Hall of Famer Dino Mangiero and Craig Jacoby. He quickly became a Weis favorite at Notre Dame, starting the final six games of his sophomore season at right guard, starting all 13 games at left guard as a junior, and then moving into the center position last fall.

According to NFL.com's analysis: "The Broncos add a smart and instinctive pivot in Eric Olsen. The former Notre Dame standout processes information quickly, and has the ability to make quick reads on the move. Given Josh McDaniels' desire to rebuild the Broncos into a team full of competitive high character guys with outstanding intelligence, the selection of Olsen is sensible at this point."

Olsen's familiarity with the pro-style offense run at Notre Dame could prove helpful with the Broncos. McDaniels is a former New England Patriot assistant with Weis and both have similiar offensive philosophies.

"Olsen certainly is a player who's familiar with our system," McDaniels said yesterday. "He'll have a little bit of an advantage coming in because what he's been doing is nearly identical to what he'll be taught here."

The Broncos took two other offensive linemen ahead of Olsen -- Utah tackle Zane Beadles in the second round and Baylor center J.D. Walton in the third round.

McDaniels said all three players "will add value and competition in a lot of areas," and projected Olsen as "more of a guard to center."

“It doesn't matter to me," said Olsen, "I just wanted to get my foot in the door and now I have. I'm going to give them all I have and show them I belong there."

There were more than a few anxious moments as the draft progressed from Thursday night's first-round TV extravaganza to yesterday's fourth, fifth, sixth and seventh round selections.

"It was a roller-coaster, I'll admit that," said Joanne Olsen. "It was just really exciting to see our son's name called."

Added Andy Olsen: "I'm elated ... he has worked very hard for years to get to this point. I'm very proud of him."

Olsen reports to Denver later this week for a three-day rookie mini-camp, and then it's on to Notre Dame and graduation on May 16. He'll earn a degree in industrial design from the College of Arts and Letters.

Yesterday, the cheering continued into the evening in Great Kills.

"We had a gut feeling for two months it might be Denver," said family friend Ken Christiansen.

He, too, was right.

Kyle Orton zeros in on comfort zone

By Mike Klis Denver Post September 12, 2010

Kyle Orton the quarterback has nothing to hide. Fire away. He'll address any concern, speak to any issue, respectfully answer even the most absurd questions.

Kyle Orton the man after he leaves the Broncos' locker room each night?

"Come on, I don't do that stuff," he said.

Eat dinner, kiss the wife, pet the dog?

"Sure, all of the above," Orton said in his deadpan manner. "What, are you working for TMZ now?"

Mr. Excitable, Orton is not. Then again, Orton's personality may explain how he was able to shrug off the transition from his lame-duck status in April to Broncos quarterback of the future by August.

Even if the future is only through next season, his ability to turn the other cheek after he was slapped first by the addition of Brady Quinn, then Tim Tebow, speaks to Orton's remarkable calm.

Either that, or Orton quietly burns when he's ticked off.

"I've said this before: I feel like you compete for your job every single year," Orton said last week. "Whether you draft a first-rounder or not, you've still got to do a job. As long as decisions are based on what happens on the field — production and leadership, all that stuff — I'm totally fine. I'm always willing to compete."

Orton, and not Tebow, the first-round prospect who hails from Jacksonville, will be the Broncos' starting quarterback today in the 2010 season opener in Jacksonville.

Tebow's return home, not far from the University of Florida campus where he became an celebrity never before seen in college football, stirs curiosity from coast to coast. Those only concerned with the space limited to the Broncos' world know hope for victory today lies primarily with Orton.

His offensive line is a frightening mix of rookies and veterans coming off injuries. His running backs are trying to mend after falling apart on the first day of training camp. His receiver corps no longer includes Brandon Marshall. And yet Orton just had a preseason that, if duplicated during the regular season, would put him within the top- 10 quarterback level.

One year makes a difference

Orton threw four touchdown passes in his first three preseason quarters. In six quarters overall, Orton led the first-team offense to 52 points. He was rewarded with a one year, $8.8 million extension.

"The guy will pick you apart if you let him," said Broncos defensive end Justin Bannan, who played against Orton as a member of the Baltimore Ravens. "I only had one week to look at him when I was in Baltimore last year, but just being around him as a teammate, I have full confidence in him. Not only that, he probably feels a lot more comfortable in the offense this year than he did last year."

More comfortable in the offense. People keep saying that about Orton. He played well in his first season with the Broncos last year. Not great, but better than he had in his previous two seasons as a starter for the Chicago Bears.

His impressive preseason play as he starts Year 2 with the Broncos is almost entirely attributed to Orton's full year's worth of experience in coach Josh McDaniels' sophisticated offensive system.

"I think he has more confidence," Broncos cornerback Champ Bailey said. "You can definitely see that. The key is more experience in the offense. You've got to expect him to be better."

It's an offense in which a receiver occasionally will run a route not to get open. The route is run so another receiver will be open.

"He understands it more," tight end Daniel Graham said. "It's almost like night and day when you see him on the field."

Isn't there more to it? Orton's noticeable improvement is all about a year's worth of study and comfort in application?

"I'm going to sound like a broken record," said offensive coordinator Mike McCoy, "but a lot of it has to do with being more comfortable in the system. Not only that, the more time you spend with the players you're playing with, you have a comfort level with those players."

Answers in the works

There was a telling game about Orton's play last year. It was Game 7 at Baltimore. Both the Broncos and Ravens were coming off bye weeks. Only the Broncos came in with a 6-0 record. Only the Ravens came up with a defensive strategy that essentially placed 10 men in the box while one safety hung back to play a deep center field. And the Ravens brought the heat.

A harried Orton threw 37 passes that netted only 152 yards.

"We tweaked our game plan pretty good when we faced them," Bannan said. "It was one of those things where we both had byes, and they weren't really prepared for what we ran because we really made some changes."

Orton showed during the recently completed preseason he may well burn a similar game plan this year. The difference is in the way he is throwing down field.

This isn't about the fly patterns he completed twice with Marshall in the nation's capital last year. This is about the 18-yard to 30-yard patterns through the middle of the field. The routes that keep the safeties back and linebackers in a backpedaling state of confusion.

"I think we've got a few more answers to different defenses this year," Orton said. "We're all about taking what the defense gives us. Certainly we like to complete a high percentage of balls, get the ball to our playmakers' hands and let them do what they do. But, yeah, I think we have more answers to some different things than we did last year."

That's about all anybody really needs to know about Orton.

Protecting Orton

Jacksonville might be an ideal opponent for the Broncos' offensive line today. The Jags registered an NFL-low 14 sacks last season, and Kyle Orton was the NFL's eighth-toughest QB to sack. The top 10 (minimum 320 pass attempts):

Quarterback Att. Sacks Att./Sack 1. Peyton Manning, Colts 571 10 57.1 2. Tom Brady, Patriots 565 16 35.3 3. Drew Brees, Saints 514 20 25.7 4. Matt Ryan, Falcons 451 19 23.7 5. , Texans 583 25 23.3 6. , Cards 513 24 21.4 7. Philip Rivers, Chargers 486 25 19.4 8. Kyle Orton, Broncos 541 29 18.7 9. , Bengals 466 26 17.9 10. Chad Henne, Dolphins 451 26 17.3 Kyle Orton quietly shines amid Tebowmania

Arnie Stapleton The Associated Press August 12, 2010

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (AP) -When the Denver Broncos' practice at Invesco Field was over, thousands of fans who had been incessantly chanting Tim Tebow's name pushed toward the railings to beg for his autograph.

They clicked photos of the hideous haircut that linebacker Wesley Woodyard had buzzed into his head that afternoon in a rookie ritual, the friar-like images, like everything Tebow, going viral on the Internet.

Female fans fawned over Brady Quinn, the ruggedly handsome quarterback who arrived in Denver just ahead of Tebow's selection in the first round of the NFL draft this spring.

Kyle Orton? He slipped out a side exit almost unnoticed.

Nothing new there - at the team's headquarters in suburban Denver, the boisterous cheers from Tebowmaniacs begin the second the former Florida star steps out onto the football field to start stretching. They don't end until he's done meeting and greeting his fixated fans, which, during two-a-days, can be just before darkness descends upon Dove Valley.

Usually drawing quite the crowd himself is Quinn, the former first-round pick of the .

Orton, meanwhile, doesn't rate a single display jersey at the satellite trailer the Broncos team store is operating inside the parking lot at the club headquarters, where dozens of Tebow jerseys - already the top seller in the NFL - are going fast.

Many days, Orton can slip past the media horde hanging on Tebow's every word and head right into the locker room without breaking stride, nobody bothering the starting quarterback for his thoughts.

This for an incumbent who is so far ahead of the others in both understanding and execution of Josh McDaniels' intricate offense that the real intrigue has been relegated to this: Who will serve as Orton's backup in 2010?

Even if the more-experienced Quinn gets that nod, Tebow figures to see plenty of action in special packages such as the Wildcat formation or in the red zone, cameo appearances that will have to satisfy the Tebowmaniacs while Orton quietly leads the Broncos offense. Almost nowhere else in the NFL is the starting quarterback so stealthy, solitary or secluded as Orton is in Denver, where he signed a one-year, $2.621 million tender as a restricted free agent this offseason because the Broncos weren't willing to give him a long-term deal despite his 29-19 record as a starter in Chicago and Denver.

So, where's the love for Kyle Orton?

"I don't need love,'' Orton insisted. "I just need wins.''

Orton doesn't seem the least bit fazed by the hoopla surrounding Tebow or the lack of devotion he's getting from the fans or the front office.

"I come out here every day and try to get the team and the offense to where we can win games. That's really my main focus,'' Orton told The Associated Press.

For those actually paying attention, Orton has been worth noticing during training camp. His comfort level and accuracy of his throws are way ahead of Tebow and Quinn. His teammates look at him as their unquestioned leader, with co-captain Champ Bailey declaring, "He's my guy.''

McDaniels' too.

Ever since bringing in Quinn and Tebow, McDaniels has insisted Orton is still the starter - but that he'd have to fend off his rivals in training camp.

While Tebow blows away the competition in post-practice wind sprints, Orton's doing the same at quarterback, even if Broncos fans aren't paying close attention.

"He's not under the radar on our team, I know that,'' McDaniels said. "He's started off extremely well. He's accurate. There's nothing in our scheme that he can't execute. He gets us in the right play 99 out of 100 or 100 out of 100 times and the ball's going to the right place.''

It's not just a mental leap but a physical one.

Orton is more mobile in the pocket and is stepping into throws with the good mechanics and proper footwork that eluded him almost all last season.

"Physically, I'm healthy finally,'' Orton said. "When I came over from Chicago I was still battling my right ankle and never really got that right. Then we got into the season and I did my left ankle and I was playing on two flat tires, basically. That's no fun. I'm just happy I'm feeling good for the first time. When you're a quarterback and you're not playing with your feet it's a tough situation. You're using a lot of arm and poor mechanics and all that stuff.''

This summer, his passes are precise, as are his reads. "Everybody plays through injuries and a quarterback is no different,'' Orton said. "Hopefully, I can get through this season on two good wheels and move around and throw the ball well.''

Despite his ankle injuries, Orton had the best statistical season of his career last year. But the Broncos collapsed after a 6-0 start and instead of the long-term deal he coveted, Orton got Quinn and Tebow.

Embracing the opportunity to once again prove his worth, Orton has only solidified his grip on the job.

"Being healthy and technically sound, that's a really good combination for a quarterback to have,'' McDaniels said. "And he knows where to go, too. So, there's a lot of good things. I think that's why he's got so much confidence right now. I think our players have a lot of confidence also, and I think it's helping our entire offense.'' Orton looks forward to better 2010

FRANK SCHWAB THE GAZETTE April 7, 2010

ENGLEWOOD – Kyle Orton played well enough in 2009 that Josh McDaniels proclaimed him the unquestioned starting quarterback for the Denver Broncos, even with Brady Quinn on the roster.

That’s great for Orton, but during his first offseason press conference on Tuesday he was interested less in Quinn or a quarterback controversy than simply having a better season.

“Just taking this offense to a whole new level,” said Orton, who threw for 3,802 yards and 21 touchdowns last season. “Whether it’s at the line of scrimmage, whether it’s making plays downfield, whether it’s making something out of a busted play, whatever it is, making sure we get in the end zone when we need to get in the end zone.”

The first way he wanted to improve was leadership. Part of that was coming to offseason workouts despite being a restricted free agent who hasn’t signed his tender. Orton didn’t blame any of his other restricted free agent teammates who have stayed away, such as receiver Brandon Marshall, linebacker Elvis Dumervil and tight end Tony Scheffler, but he felt he needed to be around his teammates.

On the field, he can get better too. One area is in the deep passing game, which wasn’t a big part of Denver’s offense last year. Orton thought that should improve.

“It’s easy to talk about it, it’s tougher to do,” Orton said. “You have to get protection, let the play develop down the field, guy has to get open, you have to make the right throw and you have to hit him.”

Being in the system a second year should make a big difference, Orton said. He said he can sense his teammates are much more comfortable than last year, and that can show up in subtle ways.

“I see something on the field and maybe last year I had to signal something out to the receiver, to Jabar (Gaffney) or Eddie (Royal),” Orton said. “Now maybe this year it’s just I’ve played with them for a year and we see the same thing, I just look over at them and we know what we’re going to do. That’s important in this league.”

Personnel matters too. While Orton discussed getting Royal involved more this year, he is still waiting to hear what will ultimately happens with two of his best weapons, Marshall and Scheffler.

“We’d love to have everyone back,” Orton said. “Those two are great players, certainly going through a tough situation now, and I hope it works out for them one way or the other. We’d love to have them.”

Former Sac State lineman earns success and rings in NFL

By Cassie Kolias The (Sacramento) State Hornet November 3, 2010

He idolizes the Greek warrior so much, he has the statue of King Leonidas of Sparta tattooed on his right arm, and his favorite movie is "300."

Greek history geek? Not quite.

The fascination with the Greeks is warranted because Sacramento State alumnus Leonidas E. Paxton III is directly related to King Leonidas of Sparta. When Paxton, better known as Lonie, is not telling stories about his Greek heritage, he is on the Denver Broncos roster and one of the best long snappers in the NFL.

"Growing up it was a story," Paxton said. "It was books, class and summer school and it was Greek mythology classes, but once it became a movie it became mainstream. The movie ‘300' obviously made the king a lot cooler than when you were growing up and trying to tell the stories."

Paxton, who majored in communication studies, was a four-year starter for Sac State and was signed to the New England Patriots in 2000 as a free agent, and played with the team until 2008. Since 2009, he has worn blue and orange with the Denver Broncos.

In 2009, he signed his five-year, $5.3 million dollar contract with the Broncos.

In his time with the Patriots, he filled three of his fingers with Super Bowl rings, met the woman who will fill a fourth finger, started a nonprofit and became famous for his snow antics.

In 2001, his second season in the NFL, Paxton played in his first Super Bowl.

"The whole experience was something I never thought I would be part of," Paxton said. "So it was very surreal. Growing up as a kid, I was a fan, and my first Super Bowl was against the St. Louis Rams. So it was cool to play a team I had always followed growing up and have a chance to win."

During his time in the NFL, Paxton got the nickname "Lonie the Snow Angel" for flopping onto the snow-covered ground after Adam Vinatieri kicked a field goal to secure the Patriots overtime win against the Oakland Raiders in the divisional playoff game. While wearing the green and gold, he earned honors such as Rookie of the Year his freshman year, junior of the year and co-lineman of the year as a senior. During his senior year, he helped the Hornets lead the Big Sky Conference in rushing yards per game with 234.2.

"They (the NFL) would come over and watch Lonie work with us on the drills," said former head coach John Volek, whose son, NFL quarterback Billy Volek, is the same age as Paxton. "His time was better than some of the long snappers that were currently in the NFL."

When Paxton was recruited to Sac State, the original plan was to have him as an offensive lineman - not the position.

Paxton played at Sac State from 1996 to 1999.

"Lonie had a great skill when he came down as a senior in high school, we recruited him as an offensive lineman," Volek said. "We were going to redshirt him and let him develop for a year, but he went over with the long snappers and immediately displayed a talent that was better than anybody we had on our team. And I let him know that he was going to come in that fall and start as a long snapper."

Sometimes players have a tough time transitioning from the college sports setting to the pros, but 10 years ago, Paxton took it and ran with it.

"It was definitely hard to come in as a rookie," Paxton said. "You don't have school anymore, and you got one job to do. You do it all day long, seven days a week. The transition from being a true sport and experience to being a job and a business- type atmosphere as well as a sport was a big transition."

Although he's known for making the snow angels in the end zone, he also tries to be an angel off the field.

When he is not winning Super Bowls against his favorite childhood team, the St. Louis Rams, he serves as vice president of a nonprofit called Active Force Foundation. Paxton started the organization with a childhood friend, Brook Duquesnel, who was paralyzed in a snowboarding accident. The organization's mission is to provide opportunity for physically challenged individuals to have healthy lifestyles through sports.

While his organization hosts events that Paxton helps plan, he is also planning another big event - his wedding. Paxton met his fiancee, Meghan Vasconcellos, while playing for the Patriots. Vasconcellos was a former line captain for the Patriots cheerleaders, and was featured in a 2006 issue of Maxim. A few of his former Sac State teammates will be standing next to him during his wedding. Although he and his bride-to-be travel wherever the sport takes him, he will not ever forget about Sac State. "Lonie has been a very good alumnus," said athletic director Terry Wanless. "He has been very supportive of the program, he comes back frequently. He's very proud of where he's from and we're very proud of what he's doing."

So each time he takes the field for the Broncos with pride, it's a new fight. It's a new team to play each week. It's a fight to win each game.

It's no wonder Paxton chose a sport that requires men to go into battle like warriors.

It's in his blood. Paxton's foundation has impact on soldiers Broncos' long snapper helps disabled

FRANK SCHWAB THE GAZETTE April 13, 2010

ENGLEWOOD – Broncos long-snapper Lonie Paxton just wanted to help his childhood friend. Brook Duquesnel suffered devastating injuries in a snowboarding accident, but didn’t want to give up action sports.

From those simple notions they created the Active Force Foundation. The goal of the foundation is pretty simple, too, getting disabled people onto four-wheel mountain bikes for some fun.

When Paxton was signed as Denver's snapper last year, the foundation’s scope expanded to include injured soldiers. Last summer, the foundation took a couple of wounded soldiers from Fort Carson to Lake Tahoe for some biking.

Many players have charitable foundations, but Paxton’s is unique.

“I just know that sport has a place in your mind, to get away,” Paxton said. “It does something for the psyche, whether you’re injured, an able-bodied person or coming off a traumatic experience such as war. We look at it as a piece of equipment that can benefit everyone.”

Justin Widhalm was one of the soldiers who went to Lake Tahoe to ride the gravity- based mountain bikes last summer. Widhalm was a staff sergeant in the U.S. Army in July 2006 when he fell out of a helicopter while serving in Iraq. He broke his back in three places, dislocated both knees and broke both feet. He was struggling to walk last summer, using forearm crutches, but the bike was perfect. His first accident resulted in more damage to the bike (broken rim) than his body (skinned knee). When he returned to Fort Carson, he excitedly recapped the action for his fellow soldiers in the Warrior Transition Battalion.

“It gave me a chance to see I didn’t have as many limitations as I thought,” Widhalm said. “I saw I wasn’t going to break myself.”

That is the goal of the foundation, although the preliminary vision wasn’t as broad.

Duquesnel didn’t stop being an action sports fan when he broke his back and was paralyzed. He tried some mountain bikes designed for physically challenged people, but knew they could be a lot better. As time passed, he wanted other disabled people to enjoy the thrill of mountain biking.

“At that point, we had no idea what we were getting ourselves into,” Duquesnel said.

That’s about the time Jason Yim got involved.

Yim was a mechanical engineering major at Cal Poly when he met Duquesnel at a mountain bike race in Big Bear, Calif., and over time they developed a friendship. Duquesnel was the passion behind the project, and Yim could build the bikes. He has worked on aerospace projects, but the bikes were different.

“It was one of the hardest things I’ve ever designed,” Yim said.

The bikes had to be safe and accessible to paraplegics and all disabled riders, which was a challenge. Yim spent about a year to 18 months on the design.

When Paxton signed with the Broncos last year, he saw it as opportunity to help wounded soldiers. Through the team, Paxton met Dom Cimino, a retired veteran who has worked with “Operation Home Support,” which assists military personnel, since 1993. Cimino took a liking to Paxton and the work of his foundation, especially after seeing the impact it had on those who went to Lake Tahoe last summer.

“It brightened them up,” Cimino said. “They felt normal again.”

The bikes aren’t cheap, and that leads to Paxton’s biggest contribution. As a NFL player with the Super Bowl champion Patriots, he had connections and name recognition for fundraising. The foundation has raised more than $200,000 since it started in 2003 for engineering and manufacturing bikes. The bikes are implemented in adaptive sports camps and programs in North America now, but members hope to expand the foundation abroad someday.

Paxton helped put together a summer golf tournament in Lake Tahoe – which doubled as the mountain bike outing for Widhalm and others – and will host a bowling party April 22 at Brunswick Zone in Lone Tree in which sponsors can bowl with a wounded soldier and a NFL player. Paxton’s name and connections to the NFL help, but he purposely didn’t want the foundation named after him. “It doesn’t draw light to me, because it’s the programs, it’s the injured soldiers, it’s the injured kids, it’s the athletes that are needing these bikes,” Paxton said. “I’m not looking for self-promotion.”

Lonie Paxton and the Active Force Foundation are holding a NFL draft party and bowling bash April 22 in Littleton, at Brunswick Zone in Lone Tree. For $500, a sponsor and a friend can bowl with a NFL player and a wounded soldier. A $250 sponsorship allows four people to bowl at the party. General admission tickets are $20.

Consistent Approach to the Offseason

By Gray Caldwell DenverBroncos.com Thursday, March 25, 2010

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- For Matt Prater, the end of 2009 was a stark contrast to the end of 2008. In his first season as a full-time kicker, he closed out the year by missing at least one field goal in every game but one from Week 9 to Week 16, and missed an extra point in Week 17. So he approached the offseason before the 2009 campaign by focusing on quality, not quantity, saving his leg for a long season. He worked on his technique and lifted weights to add power to his game. His efforts paid dividends in 2009, when he missed just one field goal in the final nine weeks of the season, tied for the third-best percentage (.947) in the NFL during that span. He was named Special Teams Player of the Month for September, and became the fifth player in franchise history with multiple 100-point seasons. So will Prater approach this offseason any differently after his success? "I try to take it the same -- just go work at it," he said. "If you're not getting better, you're getting worse. I'm just going to try to work this offseason to hopefully try to get stronger and get a little more power in it and try to lead the league in every category this year." He came close to leading the league in one category last season -- he tied for second in the NFL with 28 touchbacks, the most by a Bronco since 1994. Prater prides himself on that power on kickoffs, and considers it part of his personal and team goals. In the next few weeks, the kicker plans to sit down with Head Coach Josh McDaniels, special teams coordinator Mike Priefer and coaching assistant Keith Burns to discuss those goals for 2010. "We want to have the best kickoff coverage team in the league, which we, I think, were first or second last year," Prater said. "We just want to keep that going and try to get better at that as well. Field goals -- you want to make everything, but realistically you can't make them all, but you want to be pretty close to perfect." Prater was close to that in 2009, missing just five field goals all year and converting on all 32 extra point attempts. The kicker expects even more out of himself this season. "There shouldn't be a kick I shouldn't make," he said. "Just try to have that approach and try to improve. Last year was good -- it could've been better, it could've been worse -- but I want to improve every year and do better this year."

Brady Quinn focuses on core training

Lynn DeBruin ESPN.com June 29, 2010

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- Growing up the son of a Marine, Brady Quinn had a solid work ethic instilled in him at a young age.

As a kid, he worked out in a homemade basement gym with his father, Ty, and grew stronger every season.

"He wasn't a drill sergeant. He definitely was more laid back but he had his times when he definitely pushed me," Quinn said. "It's funny. I think he pushed me a lot more when I was young as opposed to when I was older. He pulled off the reins a little bit. But it was smart because by that time I had those types of things ingrained in me. That's how he raised me."

That work ethic has served him well in the NFL, where he is now competing with Tim Tebow and Kyle Orton for the starting quarterback job in Denver, after being traded from Cleveland in March.

After finishing 55 off-season workouts with the Broncos, Quinn, a gym rat and workout fiend who weighs about 230 pounds and is 6 foot 3, is headed to Florida for his own two-a-days before the real two-a-days start Aug. 1 in the Mile High City.

"I used to run a lot with my dad. He taught me the best way to get an edge on someone is to outwork them," he said. "I really feel that's the reason I never missed a game in college was because of how hard I worked and prepared myself."

Part of Quinn's training on the road and with the Broncos involves use of a portable nylon TRX suspension-strap system developed by a Navy SEAL.

"It's something the Broncos implement every day of your workout in some fashion or form," said Quinn, one of about 10 Denver players who each have their own system to use. "It's very challenging and pushes you to use your core."

Quarterbacks, in particular, rely on core strength.

Super Bowl MVP Drew Brees started using TRX to recover from shoulder surgery a few years ago. Other players, including , endorse it.

And though former Heisman Trophy winner Tebow wouldn't go as far as endorsing the system, he demonstrated one move on it at Broncos headquarters in June and touted its benefits. In this case the nylon cables were suspended from the ceiling, allowing a player to make the exercise as difficult as he wanted based on body position.

"When you talk about different training methods, the main goal is to learn how to move the body quickly and explosively," Broncos strength and conditioning coach Rich Tuten said. "In the weight room we train for strength. In our conditioning area, we want to be able to train to move the body with that strength. TRX allows us to do certain exercises because you totally use your body weight for that."

Quinn learned about it three years ago during an entrepreneurial program at Stanford sponsored by the NFL at which creator Randy Hetrick, a former Navy SEAL, explained the benefits of TRX and discussed how he designed it for use in small spaces such as ships and submarines.

"It doesn't seem like much, but it's something that's very versatile and something you can take with you on the road a lot of times," Quinn said. "I think it does a good job of strengthening your core, allowing you to become more stable."

Broncos’ Quinn flies under radar QB proving to be quick study of Denver`s offense

Associated Press Posted: 05/18/2010

ENGLEWOOD -- Long after his teammates headed inside for lunch, the Denver Broncos` new quarterback stayed on the field, taking extra snaps, practicing his footwork, working on his reads.

Not Tim Tebow.

Brady Quinn.

He`s the other new quarterback in town, the one whose jersey doesn`t top the NFL sales charts, whose every move isn`t chronicled by a phalanx of photographers, a regiment of reporters.

Yet, Quinn could very well be the one under center for Denver in 2010, provided he beats out incumbent Kyle Orton, who has been running coach Josh McDaniels` system for a year now.

"He knows the offense pretty well," Quinn said during the Broncos` passing camp this week. "This is an offense that I`m familiar with. I feel pretty comfortable being in there as well."

The Broncos acquired Quinn from the Cleveland Browns in the offseason, supplying Orton with some better competition.

Quinn is no stranger to quarterback competitions, having gone through that in Cleveland with Derek Anderson since being selected in the first round of the 2007 draft out of Notre Dame.

But this competition is a little different. This one has turned into a three-ring circus.

Tebowmania has set in.

Since the Broncos drafted Florida`s former Heisman Trophy winner, two-time national champion and work-in-progress quarterback in the first round last month, Tebow has been the talk of the town, the star of the show.

That`s before even seeing his first snap, no less.

Not that Quinn minds. It simply allows him to fly under the radar, as much as he can at least, playing the position he does. "Quarterback is one of those positions everyone wants to talk about all the time. Selfishly, rightfully so," Quinn said. "We`re a bunch of good guys."

And that extends to helping each other out.Despite being new, Quinn feels like he has a pretty good grasp of McDaniels` intricate offense. Quinn`s familiarity stems from playing for Charlie Weis at Notre Dame, and Weis having once worked with McDaniels in New England.

So, ask away, Tim. Don`t be bashful.

Quinn will be more than willing to help, even if it costs him either the starting job or the backup spot.

"I`m not some vindictive jerk like that. I try to bring guys along," Quinn said. "I`m going to do what`s best for our team, and help whoever is on the team.

"I think people get the wrong misconception of how guys are. Outside of here, guys are close."

Even the new guy, the rookie with all the attention, all the publicity, has been quickly accepted. Sure, Tebow may have to carry Orton`s helmet, Quinn`s as well, but that`s just good, old-fashioned rookie ribbing.

"Those guys have been great. It`s a great friendship," Tebow said. "Those guys, they do it right. I`m glad to be a part of it."

With all the attention and fanfare, Tebow has been receiving a small taste of what it was like for John Elway all those years ago, when the Hall of Famer was a rookie in 1983.

Next come the comparisons.

That`s the plight of playing in the Mile High City -- every quarterback is compared to No. 7, who led the Broncos to two Super Bowl titles.

Pressure? Not for Quinn, who proudly admits he lived in the shadow of Bernie Kosar while in Cleveland.

"Don`t discredit Bernie now," Quinn said, smiling. "Bernie had a pretty good career."

Quinn`s hoping he does, too. First, though, he has to get on the field -- and stay healthy. He`s had a recent rash of injuries that have cut his seasons short.

In 2008, he broke a finger on his right hand and was placed on injured reserve in late November. Last season, he sustained a severe Lisfranc sprain in his left foot on Dec. 20 against Kansas City.

Healthy again, he`s looking to supplant Orton.

"Everyone wants to play," Quinn said. "If you don`t have that attitude, you shouldn`t be playing."

To quell any thoughts of a quarterback controversy, McDaniels quickly backed Orton as his guy soon after the acquisition of Quinn.

Come training camp, though, the situation could change. Nothing is etched in stone, even if Orton has a huge head start on Quinn, Tebow and second-year signal caller Tom Brandstater.

"We`re really eager to see how that plays out," McDaniels said.

 Paige: God answered with preacher/QB

By Woody Paige The Denver Post September 12, 2010

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — It seemed like a typical, normal Saturday night live family football weekend gathering in a suite on the top floor of the hotel. Mother and father, hot wings, an uncle, a friend, three children, a college football game on the plasma TV, fried cheese, a son-in-law, peanuts, conversation and laughter. Except there was no alcohol or wild doings that might disturb anyone in the adjoining rooms.

In strolled another young man.

The group was celebrating the (possible) first regular-season game for No. 3 son, No. 15 quarterback.

Tim Tebow.

The man in the Gators golf shirt and the embroidered Tebow golf cap said: "He's my favorite player."

But the father, Robert Tebow II, also says: "He didn't want to play football. He wanted to play quarterback. I think he would have made a better baseball player."

Better than Heisman Trophy winner, member of two national championship teams, record-setting college quarterback, NFL first-round draft choice, rich and famous almost beyond belief?

"God always has had a plan for Timmy," Bob says.

In 1986, Bob, who was serving as a missionary in the Philippines, showed a film and gave a talk "in the mountains in Mindanao. I walked away that night thinking about the millions of babies being aborted in America, and I prayed: 'God, if you will give me Timmy, I will give you a preacher.'

"He gave us a quarterback."

Mom Pam adds: "Well, Timmy is a preacher too."

* * *

In Gainesville, Fla., the Plaza of the Americas is the quadrangle park for students on the University of Florida campus, where, in 1968, civil rights activists, Vietnam War protesters, folk guitarists, marijuana-legalization supporters and Hari Krishnas mixed, somewhat in harmony, to promote their causes.

As freshman Pamela Pemberton, an Army brat who had lived throughout the world, walked across the grass, her best friend pointed out a young man who was telling students about an upcoming Christian event.

The two — Pam and Bob — became friends at Campus Crusade for Christ meetings. "Our first time out was the Florida-Georgia football here in Jacksonville," she said Saturday night. They began dating in 1970 and, a year later, received their degrees — Tebow in health and human performance, Pemberton in journalism.

On graduation day in 1971, Pam changed from her black gown to a wedding dress. It also was Pam and Bob's wedding day.

They moved to Oregon so Bob could attend seminary school. In 1976 Pam gave birth to the first of five children — Christy — and the family moved back to Florida. Bob became a pastor, and the Tebows, with two daughters and two sons, decided to become missionaries in the Philippines.

When Pam heard from Bob they should have another child — a boy — she winced, "I was 37," then agreed.

The Biblical Timothy was the son of Paul The Apostle. In Greek, the word Timothy means "honoring God."

In second Timothy, chapter 4, verse 2, Paul tells Timothy: "Preach the word; be instant in season. . . ."

"I don't think the scripture was talking about football season," Bob said to Pam on Saturday night.

The complications of Pam's pregnancy have become the stuff of legends and controversy. Doctors in Manila recommended she have an abortion because of her life-threatening illness (amoebic dysentery). But "I put my faith in God."

Timothy Richard "Tim" "Timmy" Tebow was born on August 14, 1987. Mother and child were healthy.

His brother Peter wore a Florida Gators T-shirt that day. A few months later, in his first formal photograph, Tebow was posed sitting, and a football was placed between his crossed legs.

Timmy put his left hand on the ball. The youngest Tebow followed his parents and two siblings to Florida — after an agonizing decision. Bob says: "We never influenced any of our kids about the college they would go to."

The six Tebows moved to Jacksonville when the youngest child was 3, and the Bob Tebow Evangelistic Association was formed — concentrating on churches and orphanages in the Philippines, with more than 50 Filipino pastors employed.

Bob and Pam resolved to teach their children at home, with emphasis on religious training, Christian and family values, "academics was third," then kids' specific interests. "We never pushed them in sports."

At 5, Tim began playing T-ball.

Soon he followed older brothers Robby and Peter into football. They became high school linebackers, and Robby went on to be named all-conference at Carson Newman College.

"We did pretty well with the home-schooling," Bob says. "All five got scholarships. All five graduated. All five are doing well."

Robby says everybody wondered about their "lack of socialization" as youths. "We had sports teams, church groups. We had plenty of friends. We didn't miss anything."

The oldest, Christy, graduated from Jacksonville University, then seminary school. She and her husband have written books for kids and live in Asia helping underprivileged families. She was the only missing Tebow on Saturday night.

Katie, who earned her degree from Florida, and minored in sports management, is married to a former Duke defensive end, and they have one daughter.

After getting his degree, Robbie worked as an assistant coach and an executive with the Fellowship of Christian Athletes. He now heads the Tim Tebow Foundation, lives in Denver and, Pam says, "takes care of his younger brother."

Peter graduated from Florida in 2008 and works for the Fellowship of Christian Athletes at the school.

And the baby of the family graduated from Florida with an honors degree in family, youth and community services in December of last year.

He plays quarterback for the Broncos. But he may or may not be active today in the opener against the Jaguars. "Somebody told me right after Tim was drafted they'd be here for the first game. God works in wondrous ways," says Bob. They nod when asked about the polarizing of people in regard to their son. "I think it started when he had the Bible verses under his eyes," Pam said. Bob added: "I think at the Heisman ceremony, when he didn't just thank God, he thanked 'My Lord and savior Jesus Christ.' "

Moreso, it was "The Commercial" that featured Pam and Tim during the Super Bowl telecast. Or even more so, its sponsorship by Colorado Springs' Focus on the Family organization. "We just wanted to tell our personal story," Pam said. "We've had so many millions of positive reactions."

She has just returned from an anti-abortion speech in Flint, Mich., and Bob attended the Florida Gators game in Gainesville on Saturday afternoon. As they convened at the team hotel, Tim joined them briefly before his team meetings. None in the room was far from home.

The Tebows' brick house is about 20 miles away to the west between Jacksonville and the town of Baldwin. The 44-acre farm, amid oaks and pines, with a barn and a lake and cows out back was where Pam taught the boys and girls Christianity, English and history, and Bob suggested strongly that the boys work daily in the half-acre garden, where all the vegetables for the Tebow meals were grown. "Our family believes in a strong work ethic . . . and manners."

Inside, Timmy Tebow's modest bedroom is as he left it. "He slept under a Gators blanket as a boy," Pam says.

The vibrant, personable, very smart and strong-willed couple — Bob is 62, Pam 60 — finally, reluctantly, shut down the pregame party.

The Tebows are like the TV Walton family, and it's almost as if Timmy is John-Boy, and everybody will say good night and turn off the lights.

In another room, on another floor, Tim Tebow, as he has before every game of his life, drank a glass of milk at bedtime. Tim Tebow alters style to fit in Broncos' patient game plan

Jon Saraceno USA TODAY August 17, 2010

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — Tim Tebow smiles a lot — especially for an NFL rookie quarterback. The college legend retains an irrepressibly jaunty outlook, even in the face mask of squinty cynics who forecast a dim pro future for the Denver Bronco.

"I love it," Tebow says, "when someone tells me I cannot do something."

Perhaps the beaming, sunny-side-up son of a preacher man knows something the skeptics and pundits do not. Among the most derisive predraft comments were from a Super Bowl champion quarterback. , speaking on a Jacksonville radio station, advised the Florida Gators folk hero to quit the sport with his "rock-star status preserved."

"Tebow-mania" is not going underground anytime soon. His No. 15 jersey is the No. 1 seller in the NFL.

The Tim Tebow Era commenced Sunday in Cincinnati. Like Frank Sinatra, whom the quarterback sometimes listens to before games, the 6-3, 245-pound left-hander did it his way, if not always the right way, after entering in the third quarter vs. the Bengals.

Tebow, 23, showed flashes of what Broncos coach Josh McDaniels, 34, saw in him in college: arm strength, maneuverability, toughness.

Several throws were impressive; a couple of others could have been intercepted. But it was an old mechanical flaw — slack in his delivery — that reared its ugly mane for the Bronco with the buzz cut. Tebow victimized himself on a safety blitz with a loopy, elongated motion that resulted in what initially was called a sack and fumble (later ruled an incompletion after instant replay).

Tebow finished 8-for-13 for 105 yards. He bulled his way into the end zone for a 7- yard touchdown on the game's final play, a run analyst Brian Baldinger says wasn't smart "because you won't survive in the NFL trying to bowl over linebackers."

"I have a long way to go," Tebow says with a smile.

Work in progress However difficult the transition to the pros, the relentlessly upbeat Bronco is doing anything but singing the blues. Because he frets about getting too "amped-up" before games or scrimmages, he listens to country tunes, Christian music or a Sinatra hit to reduce his natural adrenaline surge.

Listed as Denver's No. 3 signal-caller behind starter Kyle Orton and backup Brady Quinn, the rookie is not ready for prime-time exposure. Maybe with a lucrative marketing campaign — he is the newest endorser for Jockey underwear — but not as a starting NFL quarterback.

After two weeks, no one at the team's Dove Valley training camp confuses Tebow with the Second Coming (of John Elway).

"I've thrown it high, low and behind. Definitely not perfect," Tebow says. "It is tough."

Unlike recent rookie quarterbacks who started immediately and played well, including the Atlanta Falcons' Matt Ryan and the Baltimore Ravens' Joe Flacco, Tebow faces no such expectations from the Broncos.

"You won't talk to many quarterbacks or reputable quarterback minds who feel that he is going to be successful anytime soon," says Trent Dilfer, the Super Bowl- winning ESPN analyst. Dilfer says he was "absolutely shocked" when McDaniels snatched Tebow in the first round of April's draft.

Tebow remains what McDaniels suspected he was when the second-year coach selected the football-playing missionary with the 25th overall pick — a work in progress.

His athleticism, mobility and southpaw stance remind Hall of Fame quarterback Dan Fouts of a Bobby Douglass- quarterback combo.

"Douglass was a phenomenal athlete, and that's what this guy reminds me of a bit; Tebow's a special project," Fouts says. "Young was a wild one and a tremendous athlete, too. But he got into the right system. It depends on the system matching up with a guy's skills."

McDaniels thinks Tebow fits the Broncos to a T. The coach's offense features lots of shotgun and three-receiver sets. Tebow on Sunday lined up in the shotgun for 14 consecutive snaps during three fourth-quarter drives.

Tebow has struggled with transferring what he comprehends in the meeting rooms to the practice field, where junkyard-dog defenses bite back.

Observes Orton: "He looks like all high-draft-pick rookies — good plays, bad plays. He certainly shows glimpses of, 'Hey, that's pretty good.' " Denver, which has claimed the AFC West once since 1999, will rely on Orton, who becomes a free agent at the end of the season, until the franchise's (planned) quarterback for the future is deemed proficient.

"If Tim would give us the best chance to win, he would play," McDaniels says. "If not, it is a learning process for him."

McDaniels thinks the scrambler's versatility makes him unpredictable and problematic for defenses. McDaniels would love to see Tebow, a double threat, master enough plays out of the Wildcat offense to justify making him Orton's backup.

But while Tebow says he has mastered the playbook, he must still locate a comfort zone as he tries to decipher tricked-up defensive schemes.

During a recent practice, a corner blitz rattled Tebow, who continues to practice better footwork after rarely playing under center in college. At times Tebow presses because he wants to impress; non-starters get limited reps. Also, McDaniels isn't shy about information overload when preparing quarterbacks.

That has left Tebow on a steep learning curve.

"It's going to take some time," agent Jimmy Sexton says. "He never gets too high or too low. Only thing I ever see him get (worked up) about is when he sees people on TV say he cannot do something. Drives him crazy."

Heart and soul

The most-repeated predraft criticism of Tebow was his unrefined delivery. In college, Tebow's low-slung, slower release and imprecise footwork were not issues. With Tebow in the shotgun, the receivers were often superior athletes who effortlessly outplayed defenders.

In the NFL, quarterbacks operate in what Dilfer calls the "cluttered space" — where a quick, compact delivery is often the difference between a completion and a sack. That is why Dilfer says Tebow's instincts have to be retrained from the pocket.

"I love it when people say, 'All you have to do is make good decisions, put points on the board,' " he says. "Well, yeah, all a PGA golfer has to do is get it in the hole. But what helps is proper technique. ... Tim has to reconstruct that, which can be done. He has a great mind."

McDaniels does not sound overly preoccupied, at least publicly, regarding his protégé's mechanics. Tebow's throwing motion is improved, McDaniels says, "(But) we didn't ask him to change it entirely." "He may look different (than most NFL quarterbacks), but that doesn't matter," McDaniels says.

The coach also likes Tebow's accuracy and ability to put a fine-artist's touch on the football.

"He uses touch and zip. He has not disappointed us in that area," says McDaniels, who is most impressed with Tebow's game above the shoulder pads. He should know: McDaniels was on the New England Patriots coaching staff from 2004 to 2008 with Tom Brady at quarterback.

"Tim is probably the brightest quarterback I have ever had at this stage of his career."

McDaniels pauses. "But processing information and using it are two different things."

Tebow's work ethic cannot be questioned, particularly when he has something to prove.

"He accepts a challenge like no one I have met," says Zeke Bratkowski, 78, a former NFL quarterback who schooled Tebow on his release last spring. "Tim has to generate the finesse aspect of his passing game, and he has the ability to do it."

Tebow has a college pedigree that produced two national titles and a trough full of records. Tebow was rewarded when he signed a five-year contract last month guaranteeing him $9.79 million. If he were to fulfill all incentives, the deal maxes out at $33 million.

He has been subjected to what all rookies confront, such as getting a crown-of- thorns haircut, lugging equipment and surviving the embarrassment of pranks — including blue feet from dissolving dye surreptitiously put in his socks.

"The veterans were all looking for a reason to hate him," eighth-year receiver Brandon Lloyd says. "It is hard not to like him."

The ever-tenacious quarterback says he loves everything about football — including the violence of the sport.

"I know it is going to take a lot of work, dedication and perseverance," Tebow says. "What the future holds, I do not know."

Receiver Brandon Stokley is no fan of catching balls fired by a southpaw — the football tails the opposite direction from a right-handed throw — but says he is an admirer because Tebow has such a good attitude. That is one reason he is so popular, if sometimes polarizing because of his outspoken Christian beliefs.

"Tebow-mania" has migrated from its Southern roots. The team's first practice in suburban Denver drew more than 3,000 people as Gator Nation fanatics camped out in a parking lot. Tebow regularly signs autographs for the orange crush that is held in check by multiple guards.

"He just kept signing and smiling, signing and smiling," says Linnea Schramm, a Florida grad. "He never got ruffled or was rude. He never looked bored. He just had that big smile."

One afternoon, Tebow asked Teagan Davis — wearing a tot-sized South Carolina Gamecocks jersey — if he would exclaim, "Go Gators!" The 4-year-old slowly wagged his head. Uh-uh.

The quarterback laughed ... and kept signing.

Signature moments of Tim Tebow

Tracy Hackler ESPN.com June 22, 1010

Tim Tebow's signature, like the man himself, is a captivating study -- a sweeping, handcrafted series of loops, lines, his jersey number and, if you're lucky, one of his favorite Bible verses.

It's a disposition-improving collection of ink whether it's scrawled on a trading card or an 8-by-10 photograph or a check or a credit-card receipt. It's a personality- baring scribble on any medium and it's absolutely one of the most sought-after autographs in the country right now.

Clearly, his is a sign of the times …

Five seconds.

One … two … three … four … five …

That's how long it takes -- give or take a tick or two -- for Tebow to sign his name. The incredible, indelible memories virtually guaranteed with every signature will undoubtedly last longer than that. Much, much longer.

In most cases, they'll last a lifetime.

That's why one of sports' most in-demand marksmen seemingly never tires of leaving his mark, handsomely handwritten for those youngsters gutty enough to ask through star-struck stammers. For Tebow, the benefits of tirelessly doing so far outweigh any fleeting drawbacks.

"It's exciting and it's extremely humbling that people would want your autograph," Tebow said. "But I think also it can get to the point sometimes where people are around you and you're thinking 'Man, I've gotta go' or 'I've gotta do something' or 'I just want to eat my dinner.' But then I think about when I was 6, 7, 8 years old and Danny [Wuerffel] waited to sign my autograph and how it made me feel as a kid.

"I always think of that before I get frustrated or before I want to stop. I think, 'You know what, if this is going to make an impact on this kid or give this kid a smile or inspire him or do something positive in his life, then it's worth it.' That kind of takes the frustration and the edge away." Wuerffel -- the legendary national champion and Heisman Trophy-winning Gators quarterback (sound familiar?) -- was doing more than flinging footballs for Florida in the mid-1990s. He also was willingly signing autographs for kids all over the state, inspiring with every inscription untold legions of young fans.

Among the countless Wuerffel-wowed firsthand witnesses was a certain starry-eyed southpaw who soon enough would become the face of Florida football, and one of the most wildly successful, surprisingly polarizing athletes in America.

"One year my dad took us to Florida for the fan day and we got a bunch of guys' autographs but we couldn't wait in line long enough to get Danny Wuerffel's autograph because it was so long," Tebow recalled. "But he actually did come to our church when I was younger, so after church all the kids mobbed him and I waited in line and got an autograph on a church bulletin. I still have that framed in my room."

In the years since, Tebow has made a hand-cramping habit of paying Wuerffel's gift forward, filling his own fair share of wall-worthy bedroom frames.

In March, during Tebow's first public autograph signing, hundreds of people paid $160 apiece for his signature, with a portion of the proceeds going to the Tim Tebow Foundation, which exists "to bring faith, hope and love to those needing a brighter day."

That amounts to about $32 a second -- a small price to pay, apparently, for a memory that will last longer than five seconds. Much, much longer.

Corporately speaking, Press Pass was like so many of its collecting customers heading into 2010: It wanted Tebow autographs. Badly.

So the trading card company -- a manufacturer of, among other things, football cards of draft picks in their college uniforms released in the spring -- aimed to make him an offer he couldn't refuse.

Press Pass officials approached Robby Tebow -- Tim's older brother and the executive director of the Tim Tebow Foundation who handles all of his sibling's off- the-field activities -- to begin negotiations. The hope was to ink Tim to an exclusive contract, effectively preventing him from appearing in the draft-picks products of SAGE, Press Pass' lone competitor in the niche market.

After all, if having Tebow autographs in your sets is good for business, having them exclusively -- if only for a short six-week window until the big boys' NFL-licensed card sets start hitting -- is even better. "Although the agreement ranked as one of the most expensive deals we've ever done in football or basketball, it still was a no-brainer," said Nick Matijevich, Press Pass' director of product development. "We were able to deliver Tim Tebow's first autographed trading cards and, for a good number of weeks, his only autographed trading cards. That was a huge coup for us that simply can't be understated."

Something else that can't be understated: how the Tebows handled a serious deadline-threatening aspect of the deal. Since the agreement was finalized relatively late in Press Pass' production cycle, company officials needed the autographs returned rather expeditiously if they had any chance of getting them into packs before their first product shipped.

Despite being buried under a building avalanche of potentially career-defining obligations, Tebow managed to deliver his umpteenth positive impression while delivering his cards -- all while working on his own delivery.

"We needed the cards returned really quickly or we jeopardized not having him in our first product, and there was some trepidation because Tebow was in the middle of reworking his throwing motion in preparation for his critical pro-day workout in Gainesville," Matijevich said. "The cards were signed in a matter of days, and it was obvious that Tim had taken great care in doing so; he added a number of unique inscriptions and variations to his autographs."

Most of those inscriptions -- including such personal touches as a favorite Bible verse, "Heisman" or "God Bless" -- have turned out to be breadwinners on the secondary market, routinely selling for more than $200.

But the most heavily inked of Tebow's Press Pass cards includes his signature along with "06/08 Champs," "07 Heisman" and "God Bless." That one sold for more than $300.

"Occasionally, you run across players who realize the value of their name and their lofty draft status affords them the opportunity to receive 'star' treatment," Matijevich said. "Often, these players act in a manner that is best characterized as condescending and boorish. Despite the fact that Tim was the most marketable player in the 2010 draft by far, he was a complete gentleman and simply confirmed that the All-American, boy-next-door persona portrayed by the media is well- founded."

Depending on your perspective, 1 o'clock in the morning is either really late or really early. Regardless, it's a time when far too many professional athletes these days are busy writing the wrong kinds of headlines.

Not Tebow, though. On this particular night in late May, he's just writing his name. Inside a posh California hotel room that's perched magnificently on the sands of Santa Monica Beach, a mere Hail Mary pass away from the Pacific Ocean, Tebow is putting the finishing touches on another autograph-signing session. What he'd rather be doing at this very moment, more than anything, is sleeping.

But Tebow must first make good on a verbal commitment he made earlier in the evening while attending autograph sessions for NFL trading card manufacturers Panini America and Topps during the annual NFL Players Rookie Premiere.

"We told Robby that we needed Tim to sign some additional autographs for us if at all possible," said Joe White, the guy at Panini America tasked with autograph acquisition. "Robby agreed and told me to meet with him and Tim in their hotel room -- at midnight.

"It was obvious that travel and a long day of signing autographs and taking pictures at the hotel had taken their toll on Tim. But he sat down on his bed and graciously signed 500 autographs for our next set."

As the clock creeps toward 1 a.m., and with a wake-up call looming, Tebow manages to keep fatigue at bay. He remains committed to future collectors by continuing to dispense a clean, consistent John Hancock.

But with the end in glorious sight, something unexpected happens.

"He looked up at me and said, 'Hey, Joe, do you think my autograph looks good? I recently started adding my number to the middle,'" White said. "In all my years of handling football autographs, I've never had a player ask my opinion on the quality of his signature."

Ask any collector who's been fortunate enough to obtain a Tebow autograph. They'll tell you unequivocally that his autograph looks good.

A few minutes later, Tebow's autograph obligation finally is fulfilled. With sleep at long last in his immediate future, he hands the autographs -- along with yet one more lasting memory -- to White.

Even in the wee hours of the morning, long past bedtime, Tebow still manages to impress with a pen in his hand.

"Tim Tebow thanking me for the autograph deal at 1 a.m. in his hotel room? Amazing," White said. "I have to be honest: I wasn't sure what to expect from one of the most heralded players in college football history. This kid is unbelievable." Tim Tebow's mom reaps fruit of labor of love

Lindsay H. Jones The Denver Post May 9, 2010

In the months leading up to the NFL draft, Tebow jetted around the country making friends and influencing strangers. No, not Tim Tebow, the Broncos' rookie quarterback and Denver's newest celebrity athlete.

It was his mother, Pam, who, thanks to her youngest son's stardom, has become a much-sought-after public speaker for parenting and women's organizations, evangelical Christian groups and pro-life events, making her one of the most high- profile mothers of a professional athlete in the country.

"For 25 years, she's pretty much put her life on hold for me and my siblings," Tim said. "She invested in our lives — we were her No. 1 priority, and nothing else really mattered.

"Now, she's getting to do a lot of things she loves to do too with the speaking and the writing and the traveling. She loves it, though I still don't think she loves it as much as she loved raising all her kids."

Her speaking engagements have taken her across the Southeast, not far from the Tebow family home in Jacksonville, Fla., to as far as South Dakota and Washington state.

"I think she's been more places than me," Tim said.

For nearly four decades, Pam lived a mostly anonymous life, joining her husband, Bob — they will celebrate their 40th anniversary in 2011 — in his missionary work in Southeast Asia, then raising their five children (two daughters and three sons) outside Jacksonville. Once Tim left home and became one of the most celebrated collegiate football players in history while at the University of Florida, Pam began shedding her anonymity, going public with her beliefs about how to raise children.

She and Tim were featured in a 30-second Super Bowl commercial for Colorado Springs-based Focus on the Family that focused on her high-risk pregnancy and Tim's birth in 1987 while the family was living in the Philippines.

The commercial brought controversy, as well as scrutiny. "We're careful about what we do; we don't champion every cause," Pam said. "But this was important for us."

In addition to her speaking engagements, Pam is writing a book about parenting, addressing issues she has always cared about, though rarely talked about outside the family. Tim's fame has given her a national platform.

"We have to be intentional about the way we mother and parent," she said in a phone interview from her home. "We have to have a plan and a target, a goal for them, an idea in mind of how you want them to end up."

In 1982, the Tebows made the decision that Pam would educate their children at home in a faith-based curriculum they could tailor to each child.

For Tim, it became clear to Pam very early that to engage her youngest child in school, she would need to involve sports somehow. So, reading lessons included books about sports and later, biographies of famous athletes. Science projects related to sports too, such as when Tim wrote a report on why athletes needed more protein. Not only did he win first place in a local science fair with that project, he convinced his mother to allow him to drink protein shakes.

"She was a great teacher. I love listening to her talk, tell stories. She was always a very sweet teacher — it took a lot for her to get frustrated," Tim said. "She's continuing to teach, even now that I'm in the NFL, she's still teaching me all the time, showing me how to do things, correcting my grammar."

As the youngest child, Tim had three years of his mother's undivided attention when the last of his older siblings, brother Peter, left for college. That time cemented an already strong bond between mother and son, helpful as Tim began to gain national attention for his football feats while playing at Nease High School, a public school near Jacksonville. Almost from the moment he entered Florida, Tebow was in the national spotlight.

But for Pam, football never overwhelmed the rest of family life, even in 2007 when Tim became the first sophomore to win the Heisman Trophy, or in 2008, when Tim led the Gators to a national championship, or this spring, when he was the most scrutinized player in the NFL draft.

"If we were only focusing on him, then it would have been crazier," Pam said. "But I have four other kids and four grandkids; I'm traveling a lot to speak. He's really not the center of attention in our family, and that's the best thing."

The Tebow family will celebrate Mother's Day while on vacation in Europe, sans Tim, who stayed behind in Memphis, Tenn., working out and studying the Broncos' playbook to get ready for the rest of the team's offseason program, which resumes May 17. Bob and Pam Tebow and the rest of the family will surely be in the stands at Jacksonville Municipal Stadium when the Broncos open the 2010 season Sept. 12 against their hometown Jaguars, and they will be making plenty of trips to the Rocky Mountains to watch Tim play, whenever that time comes. It is hard for Pam to describe how proud she is of each of her children, all of whom graduated from college and are active in various ministry groups.

For Tim, the feeling is mutual. This week, in a phone interview, he recalled how he broke down in tears at a family Christmas gathering when he tried to relate why he loved his mother. That was only two years ago.

"She has a great testimony and a great platform to do it," Tim said. "God has rewarded her by allowing her to be able to do that, and I'm proud of her."

Paige: McD says Tebow has the "It" factor

Woody Paige The Denver Post May 7, 2010

Tim Tebow has IT.

Not if.

And he gets it.

So says Josh McDaniels.

"I think the thing about Tim is what everybody calls the 'It'. There are those kind of people that have that 'It,' " the coach said emphatically this week in his office at Dove Valley. On the wall beside McDaniels' desk is a large TV, and frozen on the flat screen was Tim Tebow, in his orange Broncos practice jersey with a football by his left ear — a start button for throwing a pass.

McDaniels looks at the image of the Broncos' rookie quarterback and compares Tebow's "It" factor to another quarterback he directly coached for five seasons in New England.

"When Tom (Brady) came to us in 2001, I wasn't on the offensive side of the ball, but I can remember the feeling in the building was that he had something that nobody else had . . . and how strongly he felt that ultimately he would be a great player. It was obviously apparent in subsequent seasons.

"I think when you get a guy, and he's waiting for me to tell him he's going to be a great player, we might be waiting a long time," he said.

McDaniels respected the confidence Brady showed then and admires the confidence Tebow shows now.

"That confidence affects everybody," he said. "We could see it last week at rookie camp. There were a bunch of rookies out there with no confidence, except him. He's got such confidence that he will just not let himself fail.

"And that quality sometimes is very underrated. There are people with a great deal of God-given ability who are fun to watch, and it's really interesting to see what kind of seasons they'll put together. Then there are guys who will say they won't fail, our team's not going to fail, and they have a 'I'm not going to let you down' attitude. And that's what you notice with Tim."

NFL scouts, coaches and analysts offered two alarming criticisms about Tebow the quarterback: his long, looping delivery and his lack of arm strength. McDaniels has no concern about either. The Monday before the draft, McDaniels and other members of the organization flew to Florida to decide if Tebow would be their man.

"We spent seven hours with him, and I came away thinking that everybody keeps talking about the thing I think we can fix — that's my job as a coach — and nobody's talking about the things we don't have to teach him because he already has all that.

"I was struck by his intelligence, the way he understands the game, how I can have a great football conversation with him. I didn't have to sit there and draw it up. I would say, 'If they do this, here's what I want you to do,' and he says, 'I got it, Coach.' "

McDaniels implies that Tebow could play quarterback for the Broncos sooner rather than later.

"To me, (Tebow's acumen) gives him an advantage, an opportunity to play earlier than other people have played. Everybody keeps talking about it will be two, three years before he can play, and I think they don't know this guy. His mental capacity, and the way that he works, and the fact that he's on such a fast pace, will give him the chance to compete apples-to-apples.

"It's all going to be about his production and performance. There are a lot of rookies who can't run plays because they can't figure it out yet. That's not going to be the case with Tim. He'll be able to do the things (veterans) do."

During that final visit with Tebow, the coach began to explain the Broncos' offensive terminology, and the quarterback picked it up immediately. When McDaniels quizzed the QB about defensive fronts, Tebow proved he could recognize every variation and how to respond.

"You know what Tim doesn't know about our playbook?" McDaniels asked, then answered. "Only what we haven't told him yet."

And when Tebow threw at his private workout, McDaniels knew he wanted to figure out a way to wheel and deal in the first round to get him.

In Florida and at rookie camp, Tebow "threw into the wind, with it, across it, and there were no issues," McDaniels said. When Tebow threw long, "he would be looking, looking, then stand up, without winding up and all that stuff, throw 60 yards, just like that. He's got a really strong arm."

McDaniels points his remote control at the television, and Tebow is brought to life. Back and forth, fast forward, rewind, the coach reveals the rookie's throwing motion. The problem with his delivery, McDaniels said, was not as much the left arm action as the right side body reaction. Tebow's nonthrowing arm was flailing, and his right side was bailing out. He's corrected the throwing motion and cocked position, is releasing the ball quicker, and has eliminated the inaccurate sidearm passes. McDaniels had Tebow tuck his right elbow, straighten his shoulders and concentrate on forcing the "15" (on his jersey front) to fall off (figuratively) when he throws.

"See, he's doing it, after just a couple of days," McDaniels said, looking at the screen. "What's it going to be like after 65 practices? He gets it."

IT is happening with Tim Tebow.

Broncos unveil top pick Thomas, defeat Seahawks 31-14

By Mike Klis The Denver Post September 20, 2010

Introducing the first-round pick not named Tim Tebow. The other guy. The guy the Broncos drafted ahead of Tebow.

Credit Tebow for helping set up the Broncos' much-needed 31-14 victory Sunday against Seattle in one of the hottest home openers in Denver history.

With all the hype surrounding Tebow, the Broncos could keep their weapon secret until that athlete was ready to play. He's the guy who introduced himself on a 91- degree afternoon Sunday at Invesco Field at Mile High.

Demaryius Thomas.

"He's not a secret, though," Broncos coach Josh McDaniels said as he walked out of the victorious home locker room. "I understand he's a secret to you guys. But he's one of a lot of guys we have."

The Broncos were up 14-0 against the mistake-prone Seahawks but far from satisfied. With a little more than three minutes before halftime, Mc- Daniels decided to unleash his special talent. Not Tebow, the acclaimed quarterback taken with the No. 25 overall pick, but Thomas, who was taken with far less fanfare at No. 22.

When drafted, Thomas was considered a raw receiver with great potential and a broken foot.

Today, Thomas' greatest challenge will be coming up with an encore after he made eight catches for 97 yards and a touchdown in his NFL debut.

"We thought he would (play)," Seahawks cornerback Marcus Trufant said. "But at the same time, you are going up against him blind. He's a big- time athlete. With his size, he presents matchup problems. He came out and did some good things. You can't take anything away from him."

It all started with 3:19 left in the first half. Replacing Brandon Lloyd at the split right end position, Thomas caught a receiver screen on third-and- 14 and bolted upfield for an 18-yard gain. On the next play, Thomas caught a 20-yard pass on an in route. Pure speed on one play. All 6-feet-3, 229 pounds of physical specimen on the next.

"We had a couple of plays designed where we wanted to get the ball in his hands," said Broncos quarterback Kyle Orton, who has passed for 602 yards and three touchdowns in two games. "But you get hot, you keep feeding him the ball."

The former Georgia Tech go-route receiver caught four passes for 56 yards on that one drive, which ended with a short field goal by Matt Prater just before the half.

Wasn't Thomas' weakness supposed to be running routes?

"I've been working on it a lot," he said. "I feel like I'm decent at running routes. It paid off today."

Thomas went back to the bench until late in the third quarter. One more drive produced four more catches. This time it ended with Thomas catching Orton's beautifully thrown 21-yard TD pass down the left sideline.

Lloyd got his catches, too, as did Eddie Royal. But with eight catches over two drives, it almost seemed like Thomas played the role of designated receiver.

"I wasn't surprised. I knew I was going to get a couple catches," Thomas said. "I just didn't know how many."

Godspeed, Brandon Marshall. The Broncos' former go-to receiver is now playing for the 2-0 Miami Dolphins.

But if anything was learned from Game 2 of the Broncos' first season without Marshall, it's that everybody is replaceable.

One of the differences between Marshall and Thomas was evident on the new guy's first catch. Marshall's tendency once he caught the ball was to run east and west, or sideline to sideline. Thomas sprinted directly toward the end zone.

"He knows how to run once he catches the ball," Lloyd said.

"I think you saw a little bit of what we think he can be," McDaniels said. "The last play, they got up there to jam him, and he just kind of shrugged the guy off."

Tebow, meanwhile, didn't take a snap. The ballyhooed Tebow Package was kept under wraps. Maybe that made it easier for the Broncos to spring Thomas on the NFL.

A player like this is only a secret once. Broncos rookie receiver Demaryius Thomas has run a tough route to success

By Lindsay H. Jones The Denver Post July 25, 2010

Demaryius Thomas, the Broncos' first-round draft pick, is proud of the choices he's made. (Jenni Girtman, Special to The Denver Post )

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — Demaryius Thomas propped his left arm up on the table to rest his head on his large hand, and as he did, a new tattoo on the inside of his biceps peeked out from underneath the sleeve of his gray Denver Broncos T-shirt.

Thomas — the Broncos' No. 1 draft pick this year and the receiver the team hopes will make Denver fans forget about Brandon Marshall — was a celebrity at the Federal Correctional Institution, a low-security women's prison in Tallahassee, Fla.

Inmates shouted out his name across the visitors room, and Thomas signed autographs.

But the thing Katina Smith kept focusing on was that ink on Thomas' arm.

"You got another tattoo!" she said.

Thomas pulled both sleeves of his shirt up to reveal to his mother the full creation: The word "Family" on the inside of his right biceps and "First" on the inside of the left, joining about 10 other tattoos that cover his arms and chest.

"You've got to slow down with the tattoos," Smith said.

It had been nearly a year since the two had seen each other, since Demaryius was last able to make the nearly four-hour trip, take off his shoes to go through the metal detector and walk through a series of heavy metal doors to see his mother and his grandmother, Minnie Pearl Thomas. Both women have been housed here since 2000, when they were convicted of trafficking cocaine.

They have been incarcerated for half of his life.

"I know it has been hard for him. He's the one who holds everything inside," Smith said in an interview at the prison three days later. "But at the same time, it has given him the strength to go on and be better than the example I set for him."

Thomas has been here only five times, including the most recent visit July 9. He has seen his mother each time, but this latest visit marked the first time he had seen his grandmother in 11 years. He was just a boy, then. Now he is 6-foot-3 and 229 pounds, a grown man, nearly a millionaire and on the verge of NFL stardom.

The trio sat around the table for three hours, playing the card game Tonk and tic- tac-toe, talking about family and football, and the new life Demaryius is about to embark on, with Broncos training camp starting this week. They laughed loudly and deeply, and the women flashed their identical smiles. They couldn't remember seeing Demaryius so happy.

As they talked, Minnie Thomas kept leaning over to touch her grandson and to grab onto the Broncos shirt and blue Broncos warm-up pants he wore. The NFL gear somehow made it all seem more real, a tangible sign that yes, Demaryius, the child they nicknamed Bay Bay when he was an infant, had turned out just fine.

"I'm happy to see them, but it's emotional," he said. "It has gotten a little easier because we talk a lot on the phone. But it was real hard when I was young. As I get older, it is different."

School first

Demaryius Thomas and his two younger half sisters were fast asleep on March 15, 1999, when police officers burst into their mother's house in Montrose, Ga.

The officers were shouting, Thomas remembered, ordering his mother and stepfather out of bed. Smith was panicked, but she asked the officers if she could at least get her children ready for school like normal before they took her to jail. She helped the children get dressed, fed them breakfast, packed their backpacks and went outside to wait with them for the bus.

"I hugged them and said, 'I'll see you when I get back,' and told them, 'I love you,' " Smith said, dropping her head. "But I never came back."

His grandmother was arrested the same day, and both women were charged in federal court with conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute cocaine and cocaine base.

"I held money on two, maybe three occasions," Smith said. "They said I was the bank, but I wasn't the bank."

Minnie Pearl Thomas sold drugs — marijuana — for the first time in 1986, and was arrested for the first time that same year. Despite her first trip to jail, Minnie Thomas was hooked on the rush of selling drugs and was becoming accustomed to the extra money it provided her family. It wasn't long before she was manufacturing and selling crack cocaine out of her home.

She was arrested again in 1991 but resumed her business after she was released at the conclusion of a 14-month sentence in a jail near Milledgeville, Ga. "I mostly did it to make ends meet, to buy my kids what they wanted, so they could wear what the other kids were wearing, so I could keep my house nice on the inside," Minnie Thomas said.

Demaryius, who was born in December 1987, was Minnie's oldest grandchild, and old enough to know what was going on inside her house. He remembered seeing his grandmother making the crack and the stream of strangers coming and going, leaving behind their makeshift crack pipes.

"I knew my grandma was selling it and my mom was keeping some money," Thomas said. "I told my mother one time that they needed to stop because I had a dream that they got in trouble. I started crying like every night after then. And then it finally happened."

Prosecutors offered Smith a plea deal and a reduced sentence if she testified against her mother. Smith refused.

"It hurt me when I found out she wouldn't tell on me," Minnie Thomas said. "I think of her kids and how they're being raised. It's not that they don't have good lives, but they would have been better with their mother. I beat up myself about that all the time."

Both women were convicted in February 2000, when Demaryius was 12 years old. Smith was sentenced to 20 years in federal prison. Because Minnie Thomas had two prior drug convictions, she was given two life sentences, with the possibility of parole after 40 years.

Demaryius and his younger sisters, Tonecia and Tyeshia Smith, sat in the courtroom that day. The numbers they heard were incomprehensible.

"I just remember hearing what they got, how many years, and I knew it was going to be a long time without seeing my mother," Demaryius said.

He has seen her in person in 2000, 2003, 2006, 2009 and their most recent visit, earlier this month.

Thomas scrunches his face and shakes his head before he tries to describe what those visits, especially the first one, were like. As much as he loves his mother, he could hardly bear to see her locked up.

"I would ask if he wanted to go," his father, Bobby Thomas, said. "I took him once, and then he never wanted to go again."

Smith has never seen Thomas play football in person but watches many games on television. Mother and son share the dream that he will still be in the NFL for the 2017 season. Smith is scheduled to be released to a halfway house in December 2016, then to be living on her own by the following June. By then Thomas will be 29 years old and, they hope, an NFL veteran. Smith already has begun planning that day, what she'll wear, what she'll say, what it might feel like to watch him live instead of settling for a phone call from prison, before and after the game.

"I want to be in the front row, right next to the sideline," she said. "I'm going to lose my voice."

A place to feel at home

The greeting cards arrive in James and Shirley Brown's mailbox on the major holidays. Christmas. Father's Day. Mother's Day.

During her time in prison, Katina Smith has become quite the letter- writer and card-sender. And the Browns are near the top of her list.

"I just want to say thank you to them for taking care of Bay Bay, and for instilling good morals in him," Smith said.

The cards are appreciated, sure, but not necessary, the Browns said. This is what family does.

Bobby Thomas and Katina Smith were teenagers when they met in 1985, and Katina was 15 years old when Demaryius was born. They never married, but the two maintained an amiable relationship with shared custody of Demaryius before she was arrested.

Bobby enlisted in the Army immediately after graduation from high school, and he was stationed at Fort Rucker in Alabama when Smith became pregnant. With Bobby's Army lifestyle, living on bases in Alabama and Virginia and deployments in Saudi Arabia and Kuwait, he couldn't provide a stable home for his son, so when Smith was sent to prison, the family decided it was best that Demaryius stay with members of the extended family in Montrose. Bobby Thomas remains a fixture in his son's life — he sent money for clothes and other expenses throughout Demaryius' youth — and the pair lived together near Atlanta this spring and summer.

It was a challenge, though, in those first few months after Katina Smith went to prison, to figure out the right place for Demaryius to stay. He stayed briefly with his father's mother, but that home was crowded with other children. Then he went to live with his father's younger sister, but that home wasn't completely drug-free, and she wouldn't let Thomas play sports.

"I didn't want to be around drugs because I saw what could happen," Thomas said.

So Thomas started spending time with his Aunt Shirley and Uncle James, who had two older daughters, Angela and LaTonya, and one younger son, Ben. The story of how Demaryius came to live with the Browns varies from one family member to another, but the result was the same: He found a permanent home.

"He needed stability," James Brown said. "I think he felt comfortable here, like, they won't belittle me because of who I am and what my family has done."

Living with the Browns meant chores and a non-negotiable 11:30 p.m. curfew. Thomas was baptized and became an usher at the church where James Brown preached. On summer mornings, Brown roused Thomas from bed before sunrise and put him to work in the field behind their house, mowing grass and picking peas. They would take the peas to town to sell, or Thomas and his cousins would shell them by the bucket load for Shirley to cook.

During the school year, the Browns let Thomas focus on his classes (he had a 3.5 grade-point average at West Laurens High School) and on sports. Thomas' first sport was basketball, and he played point guard on a traveling team.

He started playing football in middle school just to have another activity. He didn't start a game until 10th grade, at cornerback, and didn't play receiver full time until his junior year.

As a senior, already 6-3 and 210 pounds, he decided that football was his future. He was average-size for a Division I college basketball player. As a wide receiver, he had the potential to be special.

Coaches at Georgia Tech, and now, the Broncos, agreed.

He averaged 25.1 yards per catch last fall as a junior and was first-team all- Atlantic Coast Conference, despite playing in a run-oriented triple-option offense. Thomas left school with one year of eligibility remaining.

The Broncos made him the first wide receiver selected in the 2010 draft, at No. 22 overall. The team is counting on Thomas to make an immediate impact as a replacement for Marshall, the talented but often troubled receiver the team traded to Miami in April.

In Thomas, the Broncos saw a similar physical specimen, but a player who Broncos officials believe will cause far fewer headaches off the field.

"In getting to know him the way that we did and spending time with him, we understood he had a number of things in his life that he had to overcome," Broncos coach Josh McDaniels said. "He didn't let those things and those conditions affect the type of person he became. He made the right decisions and ended up in the right place and created a bright future for himself. We're very fortunate to have him, and we think he's going to have a bright career."

"I never want to go to jail" For years, Thomas rarely spoke about his mother. He didn't tell his aunt and uncle when he was sad, and he didn't open up to his father about his heartache.

On the outside, Thomas appeared to be a normal, well-adjusted teenager. He was the star athlete, on the homecoming court and had plenty of friends.

"He handled things very well," Bobby Thomas said. "He would never talk to me about it. The emotional side of it, it never comes out in front of anyone."

Thomas didn't let anyone know that he often cried himself to sleep.

"Every night," Thomas said. "I missed her."

It took until 2006, about the time he graduated from high school, to come to terms with the crimes his mother and grandmother committed. The memories of the drugs inside his grandmother's house, of the police raid at his mother's house and of his first visits to the prison had shaken him deeply, impacting the course of his high school and college life.

"I never want to go to jail," Thomas said. "Never, ever."

Now his past is no secret, and he is not ashamed of it.

Every NFL team he met with during the combine in February and in the months leading up to the draft asked him about his mother and grandmother.

Thomas was proud when he answered their questions. He had avoided all sorts of trouble: never tried drugs, never was suspended from school, never arrested. The worst thing he has ever done, it seems, was get a speeding ticket shortly after he turned 16.

"I really didn't put myself around the wrong crowds," Thomas said. "The only way you get in trouble around here is if you're dealing with drugs, because there's not much here in the country you can do besides drugs. You don't see kids with firearms or anything like that, just mostly drugs. There were a lot of people around here you could hang with that did drugs, so you had to pick the right crew."

If Aunt Shirley's rules weren't enough, Thomas would hear his mother's voice in his head. They speak multiple times a week on the telephone, each call lasting 15 minutes. Nearly every conversation includes some sort of motherly advice.

"I tell him to let me be the only example he needs of what can happen, and that he needs to obey the laws of the land, down to wearing your seat belt," Smith said. "Just look at me and my mom."

Countdown to Sept. 12 The prison clock hit 3 p.m., and it was time for Demaryius to go.

Katina Smith told herself not to cry. Minnie Pearl Thomas began sobbing again, just as she had when Demaryius had arrived three hours earlier, and clutched on his arms. Finally, he had to walk away.

Thomas crossed the room and stepped across the yellow line painted on the floor — the line that inmates, like his mother and grandmother, are not allowed to cross.

As he turned to look back one more time, Smith could have sworn her son's eyes were filling with tears. "Don't cry," she called. "I love you!"

And then he was gone, hopping back into his large silver pickup to drive back to Georgia.

Katina Smith and Minnie Pearl Thomas were escorted back to their dormitories, where the countdown has begun to the next time they'll see him: Sept. 12, when the Broncos play at Jacksonville in the first game of the regular season.

They will paint their faces, use tape to make the No. 88 on their khaki prison T- shirts and get a front-row seat in the recreation room.

Thomas will be wearing the Broncos' white uniform and will write each of their names on the tape on his wrists.

"We've all been going through a lot," his grandmother said. "We're going through time, and he's going through time too."

'Glad to be a Denver Bronco'

Gray Caldwell DenverBroncos.com April 23, 2010

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- Things haven't always come easy to Demaryius Thomas.

When he was just 12 years old, his mother and grandmother went to prison, so he moved in with his uncle.

"I didn't want to be like them and put myself in the position they got in," Thomas said. "Basically I stayed around the right crowd. I stay out of trouble."

When he got to Georgia Tech, he was redshirted as a freshman before increasing his receptions, receiving yards and yards per catch the following three seasons with the Yellow Jackets. As a junior in 2009, he hauled in 46 catches for 1,154 yards and eight touchdowns. He earned third-team All-America honors from the Associated Press and first-team All-ACC honors, and he was a semi-finalist for the Biletnikoff Award, awarded to the nation's top receiver.

One of the top receivers entering the draft, he was invited to the NFL Scouting Combine. But he proceeded to hurt his foot running the three-cone drill -- an injury that required surgery, preventing him from participating in any drills at the combine.

"I was scared, actually," Thomas said of his draft prospects after the injury. "I couldn't do anything at the combine and I didn't know if was going to have a Pro Day. Plus, I played in a triple option and didn't do a lot of the stuff that pro styles really did."

But as Thomas stood at the podium in Dove Valley Thursday as the team's first pick in the first round of the 2010 NFL Draft, it was clear none of that fazed Head Coach Josh McDaniels.

"We liked Demaryius Thomas and had him graded highly the entire spring," McDaniels said. "He understands our system, our offense and what we've asked our receivers to learn. I think that's a thing that he can process and allows him to get on the field and contribute to our team. He's played in a league with a lot of competition so we're excited about Demaryius being on our football team."

As for the injury, Thomas expects to be back to 100 percent in "two or three weeks." And his production? Even in a triple-option, run-dominated Georgia Tech offense, Thomas found a way to contribute. The 6-foot-3, 224-pound receiver averaged more than 25 yards per catch last season and ranked second in the ACC in receiving yards per game.

Though Thomas said he essentially ran three routes -- a hitch, a go route and a comeback -- in college, he ran other routes in practice, and he's not afraid to admit he will look to his coaches and teammates to be ready when the season rolls around.

"I know I'm going to need help, so I'm going to come in and get help," Thomas said.

As a Yellow Jacket, Thomas amassed 120 receptions, 2,339 yards and 14 touchdowns. To put his production in perspective, Georgia Tech led the ACC in 2009 by averaging more than 295 rushing yards per game. The Yellow Jackets ranked last in the ACC in passing offense, yet Thomas found a way to excel. His 82.4 yards receiving per game last season came when his team averaged just 126.7 per game.

McDaniels and the receiver met in Atlanta last Monday, watching film and going over plays -- one final job interview.

"I'm pretty sure it was my game film," Thomas said of why he was drafted. "I made a lot of plays and I'm a good guy. I'm pretty sure my meeting with Josh (McDaniels) had something to do with it, too."

After spending much of last week in New York City, watching more than half of the first round of the draft from the green room in Radio City Music Hall then flying to Denver for a press conference the next day, Thomas was tired, but happy.

"It's been tough," he said of the last 24 hours. "It's been long and tiring. It's been fun though, and I'm glad to be a Denver Bronco."

Helmets Off: Cassius Vaughn

By Gabe Hiatt DenverBroncos.com October 7, 2010

Cassius Vaughn sits down with DenverBroncos.com to discuss his different roles with the team in the Week 5 edition of "Helmets Off."

Of the 17 college free agents from the class of 2010 invited to Broncos training camp, only cornerback Cassius Vaughn made it to the active roster. Vaughn played in 50 games at Mississippi, notching 152 tackles and five interceptions in his college career and contributing to an Ole Miss team that won the past two Cotton Bowls.

Through four games, Cox has already equaled his collegiate total of forced fumbles, leading all rookies with two. His takeaway on kickoff coverage at Tennessee last week sealed the Broncos' first road win of the year, and his turnover covering a punt against Seattle set up the offense for the first touchdown of the team's home opening victory.

The rookie is already a fixture on special teams and often plays a crucial role on the scout team simulating opponents' speedy players.

You're the only undrafted rookie to make the team's active roster this season. How much pride do you take in working your way onto the team?

"I took a lot of pride in it. It all came down to me being in a great situation here with the Broncos, working really hard and the coaching staff believing in me. It was a lot of hard work and a lot of luck, too."

What do you think made it such a good situation for you?

"Just having a chance. I talked to other teammates that I had from college, and they said they didn't get certain chances. Just to have a chance and have someone believing in you is a great situation. Everybody had an equal chance to make the roster. It was just about how much you did and how hard you worked. You just had to keep pushing and keep going."

How did you react to making an NFL roster on your first try?

"I was quiet for a minute, but I was ecstatic. I was too happy. It seemed like everything came true for me. I was kind of low key at first, but then it ended up all coming together." How would you describe your friendship with your fellow rookie corners, Perrish Cox and Syd'Quan Thompson?

"Those are my guys. We're close. We came in together and we do a lot of things together. If one of us does something, we're all going to do it together, so it's a close friendship and bond. We just keep growing and growing, and I hope we can keep growing together as the years go on."

What was it like going through training camp with two other guys in the same situation?

"It was great. It wasn't a problem. We all knew what we were here for, just to make the team and work hard together. We pushed each other in all kinds of ways to do certain things and that's what made it great. There wasn't any type of any bad vibes from anybody. We all came to work every day and helped each other out."

How important is a role on special teams to making the club?

"It's huge. As you come from college or high school, you don't know how important it is on special teams. Now that you're in the NFL, it's vital to your livelihood and to the team. It's very vital, and we take it seriously."

You've been able to recover two game changing fumbles on kickoffs. What has made you so effective on kick coverage?

"The things that they've been teaching me and doing the right thing. It's being in the right place in the right time and doing what the coaches expect you to do. They're making great schemes for me to be in position, and my teammates are doing what they have to do. Everything that I've done, it's not really just me. Everybody had a part in it."

Do you think you've always had a nose for the football?

"I think I have a pretty good nose for the ball. You've got to if you want to be around for a long time."

You played defensive end on the scout team to prepare for the Colts and suited up as Chris Johnson to prepare the team for the Titans. How important is it to you to play those roles and help out your offensive teammates?

"It's great just to go out there and go against the ones, to help them out. You know everything you do is going to be on gameday. Whatever you show them, that's how effective it's going to be on Sunday. You go out there and try to do everything you can, anything that's going to make them better. It's just a team effort." You played all over the field on offense and defense in high school. When did you know you were going to be a cornerback?

"Actually, that moment just came in college. I was pretty much an offensive guy, but I did everything in high school. In college it ended up happening because I had a lot of speed. Whatever I do, I try to perfect it. I had chances at Ole Miss to do that, and it got me to this point."

Did playing other positions help you as cornerback because you know more about offensive players?

"It does because you know what to expect sometimes, but you've still got to go out there and do what you've got to do."

Being out here in Colorado, what's the biggest change for you going away from living in Mississippi and Tennessee for long?

"The culture of the place, and the weather will probably be a little change for me. It will be a little cold for me (laughs)." Starting Fresh Kevin Vickerson joined the Broncos on Tuesday after being released by Seattle. The veteran already appreciates the chance to play with his new team's experienced defensive line.

By Eric Detweiler DenverBroncos.com September 10, 2010

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- Kevin Vickerson understands the business of professional football. The fifth-year defensive lineman spent time early in his career on practice squads and even had a stint in NFL Europe as he tried to establish himself in the league.

But Vickerson, who played 20 total games the past two seasons with Tennessee, had never been released by an NFL team before Monday.

A day after being let go by Seattle, Vickerson joined the Broncos. But the 27-year- old's short time as a free agent remains a memory that will stick with him for a long time.

"It's stressful, bro," Vickerson said. "Let's just say you lose your job right now, just out of the blue. You're stressed out like 'Why?" You're second-guessing yourself trying to understand the reason."

After several days in the Mile High City, Vickerson can focus on looking forward. He's pleased to have joined a veteran defensive line that he said will bring out the best in him as a player. The Broncos hope their newest addition can use those lessons learned along the way to bolster their defensive front.

Vickerson feels like he's off to a great start. In a short time, he has been awed by the position meetings led by defensive line coach Wayne Nunnely, who is in his 16th NFL season, with input from proven veterans such as Jamal Williams, Justin Bannan and Ryan McBean.

"It's just knowledge," Vickerson said of what he's liked about working with the group. "It's players being aware of situations that might come up or will come up in a game and then being able to talk about it going through the game plan."

The Broncos targeted Vickerson to further strengthen that newlook unit heading into the regular season. The defensive lineman joined Andre Brown, Chris Clark and Dan Gronkowski on the list of new additions to the active roster brought in after the end of the preseason. Vickerson has accumulated 75 tackles and 1.5 sacks in 24 career games. That includes a career year in 2009 when he played in 13 games with two starts for the Titans, who traded him to the Seahawks in April.

On Tuesday, Head Coach Josh McDaniels said the team was pleasantly surprised Vickerson became available, especially after a strong preseason in Seattle.

"We just felt like he could really give us some flexibility," McDaniels said. "He's played over the nose, and he's also played on the end. He gives you some pass rush, and he's still a relatively younger player."

Vickerson is already starting to feel at home in his new locker room. He called his new teammates "a bunch of good guys" and said he's quickly picking up the defensive assignments required of linemen in defensive coordinator Don 'Wink' Martindale's scheme.

When asked if he'll be ready to contribute in Sunday's opener, Vickerson replied, "no question." The 6-foot-5, 305-pounder said he hopes to bring a physical attitude that can help the team right away.

Part of the reason for Vickerson's rapid assimilation to the Broncos defense is no doubt the players around him. The Michigan State product said it didn't take him long to realize there was something special about the team's defensive line group, and he's ready to create his own role within the unit.

After a difficult beginning to the week, Vickerson's first few days around Dove Valley have him excited to get his Broncos career started this weekend.

"We're just getting it down for the first game of the season," Vickerson said. "A lot of guys have jitters this time of year. But I think since I'm in a room with a bunch of veteran guys, we're just like, 'OK, let's get ready to go play.' We know the task at hand." Walton could make history as rookie starting center

Frank Schwab The Gazette June 15, 2010

ENGLEWOOD – J.D. Walton not only has a challenge ahead of him, he’s trying to make history.

According to the Denver Broncos’ public relations staff, since the 1970 merger the Broncos have never had a rookie center start the first game of the season. Walton, a third-round pick, has an excellent chance to be the first. The Broncos have had just five rookie linemen start the season opener. Since 1992, the only rookie offensive lineman to start the Broncos’ opener is Ryan Clady.

There’s a reason NFL teams don’t usually start rookies on the line from day one. While there is never-ending interest about quarterback Tim Tebow’s mechanics and plenty of wonder over how much receiver Demaryius Thomas can contribute right away, rookie offensive linemen have their own challenges. And the Broncos have two that are vying to start – Walton and second-round pick Zane Beadles, who has been with the first team at left guard.

“I wouldn’t say it’s easy,” Broncos coach Josh McDaniels said. “I think those guys are learning a lot. We’re putting a lot of situations in front of them that are very difficult. They’re reacting well to them.”

Walton looks the part of a starting center at least. He’s big, looks strong, and has just enough hair on his chin to look tough. During practice he moves with purpose and shows off decent athleticism.

The Broncos hope those early appearances are accurate. At least one rookie appears likely to start on the line right away, depending if Russ Hochstein plays guard or center upon his return from knee surgery. Denver’s decision on Hochstein could be determined by which rookie they think would be a weaker link. Or, the Broncos could decide they’re better off with both rookies starting right away, even though there’s no precedent for that in Denver.

Even though he was the starting center in May and June, Walton knows that means little.

“Nothing is given to you in this league,” Walton said. “You’ve got to earn everything.” Walton repeatedly mentioned getting the respect of the veterans as his top priority. That’s especially important on the offensive line, where all five players work together and trust each other. Getting down the terminology was one of his biggest obstacles.

“When they see you’re making the right calls and they understand you know what you’re talking about, you earn that respect from them,” Walton said.

The rookie linemen started slow. McDaniels said during the early offseason minicamps they had practices he’d consider bad, but understood many of the things they were seeing were new to them. As the offseason practices went on, the rookies got better.

“It looks like we know exactly where to go, who to block, how to sort things out, who to communicate with and I think they’re really picking that up,” McDaniels said.

Walton said he’ll continue to study the playbook before training camp starts in late July so he is ready for the challenge.

“I’m just having fun with it,” Walton said. “I’m trying to earn my position, and busting my butt every day.”

Since the 1970 NFL-AFL merger, the Broncos have only had five rookie offensive linemen start the season opener, and only one in each of the past three decades:

Claudie Minor (tackle) – 1974

Tom Glassic (guard) – 1976

Mark Cooper (guard) – 1983

Russell Freeman (tackle) - 1992

Tackle Ryan Clady (tackle) – 2008

Walton Bronco-bound in NFL

By Kevin Hageland McKinney Courier Gazette April 28, 2010

Allen head football coach Tom Westerberg has accomplished a lot during his career

Westerberg has won a Class 5A State Championship as both an offensive coordinator and a head coach, but it was until Friday night that Westerberg could say he was the head coach of a player taken in the NFL Draft.

That accomplishment was marked off the list as former Eagle J.D. Walton was selected by the Denver Broncos with the 16th pick in the third round, 80th overall, of the 2010 NFL Draft.

“It’s a really good deal for J.D.,” Westerberg said, “and it’s good for our program.”

Westerberg wasn’t watching the draft at the exact moment Walton was selected, but said he had more interest in the festivities than usual since Walton was expected to be selected in the first four rounds.

As it was, the Broncos were thrilled to see Walton still on the board come pick No. 80 as he was the team’s second-rated center behind Florida’s Maurkice Pouncey, who was taken in the first round by the Pittsburgh Steelers.

“We were fortunate that [Walton] was still there in the third round,” said Josh McDaniels, Denver head coach. “We’re excited to add him into that competition at center.”

As McDaniels alluded to, Walton will be in the mix for Denver’s starting center spot and may be the favorite to win the job. But the 6-foot-3, 300-pounder knows he’ll have to work for it.

“I'm there to bust my butt and earn it; nothing is going to be given,” Walton said. “I think my pass blocking is very good. I think I can get out in space and get out to linebackers in the corners on screens. But everything’s going to have to be bumped up another level just because it’s the NFL. Everything’s got to be stepped up a notch.”

Walton has excelled at stepping up during his football career.

Walton, who was in the Allen system since seventh grade, was originally projected as just a two-star prospect in high school.

But by the time he graduated from Allen in 2005, Walton had earned an invite to both the Coca-Cola All-Star Game and the Oil Bowl while picking up a scholarship to Arizona State. Walton and his family also made an impact on the community outside of football as the offensive lineman is on the Eagles weightlifting Wall of Honor and his parents, Danny and Donna Walton, both worked in the Allen ISD.

Walton transferred from Arizona State to Baylor after being redshirted as a freshman and sat out the 2006 season due to the NCAA’s transfer rules.

Walton would go on to start all 36 games he played for the Bears and was named first team All-American at center during his recently completed senior season. In his last two years at Baylor, Walton amassed 194 pancake blocks and was responsible for 26 touchdown-scoring blocks.

Having reached success at all prior levels of the game, Walton will now begin the toughest challenge of his football career.

“J.D. has wanted to be an NFL football player since he was 5 years old and I think his dream is coming true,” Mr. and Mrs. Walton said. “With the support he had at Allen, from his friends and family and throughout his college experience, his passion to play football has remained very strong. We would like to say thanks to everyone that had a part in it.

Broncos' Williams keeps low profile off gridiron while making an impact

By Lindsay H. Jones The Denver Post October 23, 2010

You won't hear D.J. Williams hosting a show on the radio or see him on television commercials. You won't see his face on billboards, shilling for any shoe company.

Even if you were to see him around Denver, there's a good chance you wouldn't recognize him.

"I've been out with Champ (Bailey) and some friends, and people think I'm security," Williams said. "It's weird."

How is it that a player who has started as many games for the Broncos as anyone over the last seven years — his 92 starts tie Bailey for the most since 2004 — could still be the most anonymous?

Well, it's exactly the way Williams likes it.

"When I go out, if I'm out at a restaurant or out having fun, I just kind of want to blend in," Williams said.

Yet Williams is hardly hidden on the field this season. With chaos elsewhere — with injuries to Elvis Dumervil in training camp and starters Brian Dawkins, Robert Ayers and Andre Goodman during the season — perhaps no player has been as important to the Broncos' defense as Williams. He leads the team with 56 total tackles, including 41 solo, and has a team-high 2 1/2 sacks.

When the Broncos are in their base 3-4 scheme, Williams is at the inside weakside position — called the Jack linebacker spot. From there, he is the primary tackler in the run defense. He'll also blitz at times or drop back in pass coverage, sometimes singled-up against the opposing tight end or against a running back who might be on a pass pattern.

"He's one of my favorite players that I think I've ever been around. He's at times very quiet, but I don't know that anybody has any more respect than D.J. does," coach Josh McDaniels said. "I think he's one of the best linebackers in pro football. That's how I feel about him because he makes such a huge impact in every phase of the game. . . . He's a well- rounded player and really looks like he's playing in the prime of his career." Broncos defensive coordinator Don "Wink" Martindale, who was the team's linebackers coach in 2009, said Williams is playing at a Pro Bowl level. Williams said it is his relationship with Martindale that is makes that possible.

Martindale is the fifth coordinator Williams has played for since the team drafted him at No. 17 overall in 2004.

In that time, Williams was moved from the weak side to the strong side to the middle and back out again in the 4-3 defensive scheme under former coach Mike Shanahan. Then, Williams was among the Broncos' biggest linebackers, at 242 pounds.

Now, in his second year in the 3-4 scheme, he's the smallest starting linebacker. More important, Williams said, is that he's able to play smarter because, for once, his role has remained consistent.

"I finally have a D-coordinator who knows how to use me," Williams said. "A lot of times I wasn't the focal part of the defense. I was a good player out there making plays, but I feel like Wink puts me in position and makes certain calls that are planned for me to make the play. I like that because I'm confident in myself. If anything, I'd like it to be left up to me to make the play. Not putting anyone else down, but I just have confidence in myself in making the play."

And his teammates have confidence in Williams.

Bailey, the only player who has been with the Broncos longer than Williams — albeit only by a matter of months — said players respect Williams' voice in the locker room because of the way he carries himself on the field. When Williams arrived in 2004, he was the kid playing alongside Al Wilson. Now, Bailey said Williams is the leader instead of a follower.

"He doesn't always talk, but he talks when necessary. He speaks up, and you can tell it means a lot to him just based on how he talks and when he talks," Bailey said. "We need somebody like that, especially someone who sits right in the middle of your defense. He's the guy that we listen to in the huddle. His voice is important."

Who is D.J. Williams?

He's one of the longest-tenured Broncos, yet he remains one of the team's most anonymous players, by his own design. "I'm just a football player," Williams said. "All the extra stuff, I try to stay away from. It sounds bad. I just signed up to play football." Position: Inside linebacker

Broncos career: No. 17 overall pick in 2004 draft; played in 97 games, with 92 starts — tied with Champ Bailey for the most since 2004.

Career stats: 494 solo (657 total) tackles, 12 1/2 sacks, two interceptions, 10 forced fumbles

Hometown: Sacramento, Calif.

Offseason home: Miami

College:

Did you know? Williams' mother, Sherri Gonzalez, runs a number of charity events in the Denver area in her son's name, including providing Thanksgiving and Christmas meals and running a youth football camp. "I'm the silent partner," Williams said. "It's just not publicized because I'm not doing it for the attention."

Denver feeling a lot like home to Williams Veteran Jamal Williams welcomes a chance to be the answer on the D-line for once-hated Broncos

By Jeff Legwold The Denver Post Posted: 05/29/2010

He is on the hunt for his first house in Colorado, but Jamal Williams has carried a souvenir from the Broncos for quite some time.

The long, angry-looking scar on his lower left leg is what remains from a low block from former Broncos offensive lineman Steve Herndon that resulted in a dislocated ankle and ended Williams' 2002 season. It's a little bit of his history that brought a smile about the future.

"I was going to put a happy face tattoo right there," Williams said this week. "I think it would have looked good."

Williams is settling in at his new football home, a place that includes a Broncos jersey, of all things. The 13th-year defensive tackle was one of the Broncos' offseason acquisitions as they try to repair a run defense that collapsed down the stretch last season. Denver surrendered at least 173 yards rushing in five of its final nine games.

Williams was a little concerned with how he would be received at his new team's Dove Valley complex after a dozen years with the AFC West rival San Diego Chargers. Then there was the matter of breaking the news to his mother, Harriet.

"The game I hurt my ankle, that was the first one she ever went to in the NFL," Williams said. "I mean, I was young, saved up some money so I could have everybody out for a game I was going to be starting. My mom came. I have six brothers, they came. Had cousins come, my nephews. I brought everybody out to see me play.

"They were kind of upset when I got hurt. When I signed here and I told her, she was like, 'Are you talking about that same team?'

"But then it was like 10 seconds and she said, 'Well, you get to play San Diego twice a year, baby, and when am I going to get my new jersey?' "

The Broncos hope Williams can coax some high-quality play out his 34-year-old body. At his best, the 348-pounder has tormented offensive linemen and battered running backs on the way to three Pro Bowls. He anchored the middle of a Chargers defense that helped San Diego win the past four division titles and five in the past six years.

"And he used to give (former Broncos center) Tom Nalen hell up front," Broncos cornerback Champ Bailey said. "So I know what he can do."

The Chargers released Williams, who missed virtually all of the 2009 season after tearing a triceps muscle in the season opener against Oakland. With his position coach for 11 of his 12 seasons in San Diego — Wayne Nunnely — having joined Josh McDaniels' staff last season, the Broncos were No. 1 on Williams' wish list.

Williams said the injury gave him time to heal a battered body. He has had a litany of surgeries, including arthroscopic surgeries on both knees in '07, yet he still played in 13 games that season.

"I'm not a quitter," Williams said. "My mentality is that's not the way I'm going to go out. I'm going to go out fighting. So, I look at it in a positive way. It gave me almost a whole season to heal up everything else. I'm fresh as I can be. I feel like I'm back in college.

"I just look at the guys who played the position before me, those are some tough sons of guns. Look, nobody's body is really meant to play football, and nobody's body is really meant to play nose tackle. That just ain't on the list. You've got to take on 600, 700 pounds worth of guys on every play. But I love it, I love being a real weekend warrior, and now I'm going to do it for the Denver Broncos."

Healing power

Broncos nose tackle Jamal Williams missed virtually all of the 2009 season with a torn triceps. But he and the Broncos believe time off has given the 34-year-old, three-time Pro Bowl time to rejuvenate. Williams has flourished on the field despite the toll playing his position has taken on him:

Season Games Missed Injury 2009 15 Triceps 2007 3 Two knee surgeries 2004 1 Knee 2003 1 Knee 2002 4 Dislocated ankle 2001 13 Knee

New nose tackle "ready to go" Time off because of injury puts horsepower back in Williams' motor

For most guys, nearly a full season away from football could be a serious problem.

But not for Jamal Williams, he said. Not when you're almost 34 years old and have played nose tackle in the NFL for 12 years. Williams spent nearly all of the 2009 season on the injured reserve list after injuring his triceps during the first game of last season.

"The best thing that happened to me was I had the time off," Williams said.

Williams said that injury would have healed in time for him to return for the second part of the season, but the Chargers — Williams' former team — already had placed him on injured reserve.

"It was only a triceps. It gave me time to work on my lower body, get that stronger and better right now," Williams said Tuesday. "I'm ready to go."

Broncos coach Josh McDaniels said last month that his staff had watched enough of Williams' film from 2007, 2008 and early 2009 to be confident Williams can play at a high level during the 2010 season. Williams was released by the Chargers on March 4. He signed with Denver five days later, completing the revamping of the Broncos' defensive line.

"There wasn't 16 games of evidence, but there was enough evidence there to say 'this player has not declined significantly from '08 to '09,' " McDaniels said. "We felt like a player of his caliber probably benefited with the rest of his body."

Williams, who turns 34 on April 28, is the second-oldest member of the Broncos' defense. Brian Dawkins, a 36-year-old safety entering his second season with the Broncos, is the oldest. Williams said some of his younger teammates have been teasing him since he arrived in Denver, but he's handling the ribbing fine.

"It gets me out the old folks home. I'm able to get away for recreational purposes," Williams said. "It's good, though, getting the camaraderie. They tease me a little bit, though, but I'm showing them some grown man stuff in the weight room."

Undrafted, undersized Woodyard rises to become a Broncos' team captain

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. — By no normal measure is Wesley Woodyard a small man.

He stands 6 feet tall and is a lean 222 pounds, with a physique that hordes of gym-going businessmen would envy.

Yet Woodyard doesn't have the prototypical body for an NFL linebacker — a little short, a little light. And that's the main reason Woodyard was lightly recruited by major-college programs when he was a high school player in LaGrange, Ga., and why in 2008, just months after leading the Southeastern Conference in tackles per game during his senior season at Kentucky, he went undrafted.

Former Broncos coach Mike Shanahan snagged Woodyard as a free agent, a move that proved to be a steal. Woodyard made the 53-man roster as a rookie and ended up starting six games.

"It's never going to go away," Woodyard said of the disappointment from the draft. "I'm always going to have that chip. It's something that makes me continue to work hard every day and continue to prove people wrong every time I'm on the field."

This season, Woodyard played in the Broncos' nickel package and was a key special-teams player. His teammates selected him as a captain, the youngest of the team's six captains.

"I feel like respect is earned, and you've got to go out there and take it," Woodyard said. "Every time I'm out there on the football field, I give it my all, and they saw my hard work and determination and voted me to be a team captain."
