As most of Denver’s rookies and a few of their veterans convened for the first of four pre-training camp sessions Wednesday, most questions revolved around the players who were not and will not be practicing, rather than the ones who were.
The status of first-rounders Tim Tebow and Demaryius Thomas remained unchanged; they are stlll unsigned and did not join their fellow rookies on the field.
“We hope to have both of them as soon as possible. I don’t have a timetable,” McDaniels said.
Thomas and Tebow could both be on the field Sunday. Darrell Reid and Ryan Clady will not. After sitting out organized team activities with their injuries, McDaniels said they will be placed on the physically-unable-to-perform-list at the start of training camp.
If they are on the PUP list when the regular season begins, they will sit out the first six weeks. Being on the PUP list at training camp does not necessarily have an impact on the regular season.
With Clady ruled out, McDaniels said that Tyler Polumbus will work at left tackle when full camp sessions begin Sunday morning at Dove Valley. Ryan Harris, who was injured during most of OTAs but was on hand for Wednesday’s pre-camp session, will line up at right tackle, with Chris Kuper next to him at right guard. The left guard and center positions will rotate among a few different players, McDaniels said.
BUT THERE WERE SOME HAPPY RETURNS on Wednesday, most notably for offensive lineman Russ Hochstein and wide receiver Eric Decker. Neither practiced during OTAs, but both were on the field and worked fully.
Hochstein and Harris were joined by fellow veterans Nick Greisen and J.J. Arrington on the field Wednesday. Second-year safety Darcel McBath and tight end Marquez Branson, who missed some time during OTAs, also practiced.
“It’s great to see them out there and participating,” McDaniels said.
