The Denver Broncos veteran players reported to camp on Saturday to join with the rookies for the first time. The Broncos got some terrible news though when running backs Knowshon Moreno and Correll Buckhalter both went down with injuries. You may remember Knowshon Moreno during his days at Georgia when he competed against Tim Tebow.
The fans showed up big to support Tim Tebow and the new era in Broncos Football. Some 3,100 fans showed up to the start of training camp, a record for the first day at Dove Valley. Fans serenaded Tebow with cheers when he walked onto the field and when he stretched, then chanted his name when he walked off after winning every single one of the post-practice sideline sprints.
“Guy was a great player in college,” Champ Bailey said. “He’s going to do some great things for us.”
I just hope the Broncos will find a way to get Tim on the field early in the NFL season. The guy has serious talent and the fans love him – it would be a shame to leave him on the sideline for long. Tim is the type of player that will get better with reps in live game situations. He excels at adapting to situations and creating plays when they aren’t available.
“I’m still working on footwork and my drops and things like that but as far as just my throwing motion, it’s more of just getting my feet in place,” Tim Tebow said. He’ll continue to work behind starter Kyle Orton during camp and into preseason.
