I mean, football is back 8 00:00:24,280 --> 00:00:27,120 Speaker 2: Broncos Country. The Denver Broncos held their first training camp 9 00:00:27,160 --> 00:00:30,440 Speaker 2: practice on Wednesday here at the Centuri Health Training Center, 10 00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:32,800 Speaker 2: and head coach Sean Payon said it was a good 11 00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:34,440 Speaker 2: first day, got a big. 12 00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:37,160 Speaker 3: Group first day. It's good to have them out here. 13 00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:43,840 Speaker 3: Yesterday everyone reported kind of went through our meeting schedule. 14 00:00:44,680 --> 00:00:47,760 Speaker 3: I feel pretty good. I mean, I think these guys, 15 00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:51,360 Speaker 3: you could see it with their weights in the workouts 16 00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:54,600 Speaker 3: we did yesterday. I think they're in good shape. And obviously, 17 00:00:56,160 --> 00:00:57,840 Speaker 3: you know, we've got a whole month and a half 18 00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:04,319 Speaker 3: here ahead of us, but. 19 00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:04,040 Speaker 2: But overall is good. Sean Payton said today's practice was 20 00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:06,559 Speaker 2: a ramp up day, but as training camp gets going, 21 00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:08,839 Speaker 2: he said he liked the pace the team had today. 22 00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:12,920 Speaker 3: The tempo is what we're looking for today. What'll gradually 23 00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:15,360 Speaker 3: change is the time out on the field, the amount 24 00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:18,520 Speaker 3: of periods this on ramp. You know, this was really 25 00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:22,520 Speaker 3: quick practice from start to finish. But hopefully the tempo 26 00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:26,160 Speaker 3: is something that you would say you get used to seeing, 27 00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:29,479 Speaker 3: and you saw some of it today and I think 28 00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:33,640 Speaker 3: that's something that something that's really been important to us 29 00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:38,440 Speaker 3: relative to how we practice offensively and then what it 30 00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:40,080 Speaker 3: forces the defense to do as well. 31 00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:42,840 Speaker 2: We also heard from owner and CEO Greg Penner. As 32 00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:45,160 Speaker 2: it was is a first a first day of training 33 00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:47,880 Speaker 2: camp as the owner of the Denver Broncos. He talked 34 00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:50,880 Speaker 2: about his excitement for the year and his expectations for 35 00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:51,880 Speaker 2: the team this season. 36 00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:54,280 Speaker 4: One expectation is that year two will be a little 37 00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:58,200 Speaker 4: smoother than the first year. It was a great year. 38 00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:00,800 Speaker 4: We learned a lot, you know, of course, there are 39 00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:04,000 Speaker 4: always going to be some surprises. You know. Our expectations 40 00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:09,560 Speaker 4: for this year are set really high, expectations. Work hard 41 00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:14,080 Speaker 4: every day to get better, you know, good product on 42 00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:17,080 Speaker 4: the field, something that our fans can be proud of. 43 00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:20,240 Speaker 2: Plus, Greg Penner talked about the culture Sean Payton has 44 00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:22,720 Speaker 2: set here and what he's seen from him his first 45 00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:24,000 Speaker 2: six months on the job. 46 00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:27,080 Speaker 4: I think Sean's been tremendous. I mean he came in 47 00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:31,080 Speaker 4: and right away changed the tone in the building. He 48 00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:34,720 Speaker 4: sets very high expectations. Everybody knows that they're going to 49 00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:38,120 Speaker 4: be held accountable. At the same time, he's a great teacher, 50 00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:43,639 Speaker 4: always wanting to teach. He's a great communicator. And then 51 00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:45,440 Speaker 4: a big thing was the staff that he put together, 52 00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:48,239 Speaker 4: so coming in and building a really diverse staff, and 53 00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:51,520 Speaker 4: I mean diversity in terms of coaching trees that they 54 00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:56,119 Speaker 4: came from age experience. We've got everybody from Mike Westoff, 55 00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:58,240 Speaker 4: you know, to Chris Banjo and Davis Webb that are 56 00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:01,720 Speaker 4: that are just out of the league. So really a 57 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:03,440 Speaker 4: tremendous staff. I think he's put together. 58 00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:05,200 Speaker 2: As a team hit the field for the start of 59 00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:07,840 Speaker 2: training camp today, Sean Payton's message to the team. 60 00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:11,600 Speaker 1: With simple winning. Safety Justin Simmons expanded on that, I. 61 00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:13,520 Speaker 5: Think the number one thing is just to win and 62 00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:16,680 Speaker 5: find ways to win, right. I always said, I said it, 63 00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:22,239 Speaker 5: preach it during OTAs. It's been a very for me personally. 64 00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:26,079 Speaker 5: The number one word I associated with coaches just education. 65 00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:29,359 Speaker 5: I think the way that he teaches and the way 66 00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:33,240 Speaker 5: that he's so knowledgeable and it's explaining situations is something 67 00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:36,200 Speaker 5: that I feel like is really unique. So that would 68 00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:37,440 Speaker 5: be the number one thing that I said. 69 00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:40,200 Speaker 2: Wide receiver Courtland Sutton echoed that and said, you can 70 00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:41,800 Speaker 2: feel the difference from last year. 71 00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:43,720 Speaker 1: Everyone can feel the urgency. 72 00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:45,960 Speaker 6: I hate to, you know, be up here and have 73 00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:48,640 Speaker 6: to be you know, reiterating you know something that we've 74 00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:50,720 Speaker 6: been talking about for the past couple of years.

We had several meetings with them. 100 00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:57,200 Speaker 7: As we said, we showed them color palettes. Ultimately we 101 00:04:57,279 --> 00:04:59,479 Speaker 7: narrowed it down to a few. We actually worked with 102 00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:02,400 Speaker 7: Flip Park equipment manager to put together a few prototypes 103 00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:06,040 Speaker 7: to show them what it could look like.

We took photos of him, presented that 105 00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:12,680 Speaker 7: to ownership ultimately, but yeah, heavily involved. I think it's 106 00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:14,880 Speaker 7: important to have them involved. They have to wear it. 107 00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:17,800 Speaker 7: We talk about the uniform is almost like a super suit, 108 00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:19,960 Speaker 7: you know, when they come out onto the field, that 109 00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:23,400 Speaker 7: is what they're wearing should be motivating them and inspiring them. 110 00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:26,000 Speaker 7: It's important they have to wear it so their input's 111 00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:26,560 Speaker 7: really important. 112 00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:29,000 Speaker 2: Now joining me here inside the Broncos podcast studio to 113 00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:31,200 Speaker 2: take a look at the first day of training camp 114 00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:34,359 Speaker 2: is Broncos lead writer Eric Dalala. Eric can't believe that 115 00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:36,960 Speaker 2: time has already come. First day of training camp in 116 00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:37,440 Speaker 2: the books. 117 00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:40,080 Speaker 8: Yeah, I said, one practice down, a lot more to go, 118 00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:41,400 Speaker 8: a lot more to down. 119 00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:43,920 Speaker 2: Eric. We did hear from head coach Sean Payton today 120 00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:45,840 Speaker 2: and he talked about how this was a little bit 121 00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:47,919 Speaker 2: of a shorter practice. They're going through kind of a 122 00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:49,720 Speaker 2: ramp up period the first couple of days. 123 00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:53,640 Speaker 8: Yeah, exactly, We're expecting the same thing on Thursday, about 124 00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:56,120 Speaker 8: a ninety minute practice. You still saw, you know, a 125 00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:58,279 Speaker 8: little bit of work out there, but getting these guys 126 00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:02,760 Speaker 8: ready after this week to get up to speed go 127 00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:06,400 Speaker 8: through a full training camp practice. There are rules across 128 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:08,880 Speaker 8: the NFL about what you're able to do immediately and 129 00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:12,080 Speaker 8: kind of get these guys into shape, kind of an 130 00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:15,800 Speaker 8: acclamation period, if you will. But I do think one 131 00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:17,760 Speaker 8: thing of note is that the Broncos are in a 132 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:19,680 Speaker 8: good place when it comes to getting in shape. Sean 133 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:22,520 Speaker 8: Payton said that he was impressed with the way guys 134 00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:25,000 Speaker 8: came back from the offseason. He talked at the end 135 00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:27,880 Speaker 8: of the end of mini camp about all the work 136 00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:30,080 Speaker 8: this team has put in and about how easy it 137 00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:32,599 Speaker 8: is to slide back down the mountain. Well, it sounded 138 00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:36,080 Speaker 8: on Wednesday, said like the team has not slid back 139 00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:39,040 Speaker 8: down that proverbial mountain. They've worked hard during this six 140 00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:41,800 Speaker 8: week break, They've stayed in shape. It looked like that 141 00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:43,359 Speaker 8: on Wednesday. They looked ready to go. 142 00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:45,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, definitely. And Eric, it was not only the first 143 00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:46,599 Speaker 1: day of practice here. 144 00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:48,400 Speaker 2: It was a really busy day in the fact that 145 00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:51,120 Speaker 2: we heard from head coach Don Payton, owner and CEO 146 00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:53,679 Speaker 2: Greg Penner, team president de Money Leech, and of course 147 00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:56,480 Speaker 2: a couple of players safety Justin Simmons in wide receiver 148 00:06:56,520 --> 00:06:57,160 Speaker 2: Courtland Sigton. 149 00:06:57,240 --> 00:06:59,480 Speaker 1: So a lot going on here today, Yeah, a lot. 150 00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:01,479 Speaker 8: Going on and some of the guys that I mean 151 00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:05,520 Speaker 8: obviously Greg Penner, leader of the organization, and then Demani 152 00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:09,680 Speaker 8: who handles a lot of this business direction of the franchise. 153 00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:11,600 Speaker 8: Jean of course kind of sets the tone from a 154 00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:14,320 Speaker 8: football side, but from a player standpoint, Courtland sid and 155 00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:16,680 Speaker 8: Justin Simmons two of the longest ten yured guys, and 156 00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:18,360 Speaker 8: so you always like to hear from them to kind 157 00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:19,920 Speaker 8: of get a pulse of where things. 158 00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:21,760 Speaker 2: Stand, definitely, and you know, it was great to hear 159 00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:23,280 Speaker 2: from owner and CEO Greg Penner. 160 00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:25,560 Speaker 1: You know, he talked a lot about what. 161 00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:27,720 Speaker 2: They learned him and the ownership group learned in their 162 00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:30,360 Speaker 2: first year here and kind of his expectations for a 163 00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:32,680 Speaker 2: year two.

And we've talked a lot about that'said 176 00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:06,040 Speaker 8: about how different this offseason has felt. But you're right, 177 00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:09,280 Speaker 8: Greg Penner talked about learning about the importance of having 178 00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:12,200 Speaker 8: that core in place and having the right culture. Seems 179 00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:14,640 Speaker 8: like the Broncos are moving in that direction that they've 180 00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:18,200 Speaker 8: found that with this current group, and you know, from 181 00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:22,240 Speaker 8: a business standpoint, Greg Penner certainly talked about being successful there, 182 00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:24,920 Speaker 8: but it's clear that the focus, like you mentioned, is 183 00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:28,440 Speaker 8: is having success on the field. And while he didn't 184 00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:31,000 Speaker 8: come out and say X number of wins is what 185 00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:32,599 Speaker 8: we want, he did say we've got to have a 186 00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:35,360 Speaker 8: product that fans are proud of, that they want to watch, 187 00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:37,719 Speaker 8: and we not said that the Broncos country has high 188 00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:40,960 Speaker 8: expectations and so if that's the goal, you're talking about 189 00:08:40,960 --> 00:08:42,240 Speaker 8: winning football games. 190 00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:44,679 Speaker 2: Eric, one thing you mentioned, you know, how different things 191 00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:47,000 Speaker 2: are this year than it was at this time last year, 192 00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:49,160 Speaker 2: and how different things feel. You know, head coach Sean 193 00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:51,080 Speaker 2: Payton something that really stood out to me that he 194 00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:54,280 Speaker 2: talked about was, you know, just looking at this team 195 00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:56,520 Speaker 2: and looking at some of the players and how much 196 00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:59,440 Speaker 2: it matters to them and wanting to be seen in 197 00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:02,560 Speaker 2: a different life. And Courtland Sign and Justin Simmons both 198 00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:05,440 Speaker 2: talked about that and said that that message really resonates 199 00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:07,360 Speaker 2: with them and I feel like you can feel it 200 00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:09,480 Speaker 2: with the two of them, and you know how different, 201 00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:12,200 Speaker 2: how maybe the urgency is different this year. 202 00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:14,160 Speaker 8: Yeah, no doubt about it. I thought you felt that 203 00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:16,800 Speaker 8: the way they went on about their business at practice 204 00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:18,559 Speaker 8: on Wednesday, the way they went about their business the 205 00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:19,280 Speaker 8: whole offseason. 206 00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:19,560 Speaker 2: Right. 207 00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:22,360 Speaker 8: But yeah, you know, we talk about the team turning 208 00:09:22,400 --> 00:09:24,240 Speaker 8: things a lot, and I think we forget sometimes that 209 00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:27,280 Speaker 8: there are individual players and there's a sense of pride 210 00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:29,680 Speaker 8: here and that these guys have been elite competitors for 211 00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:33,280 Speaker 8: a long time. They don't want people around the league, fans, media, 212 00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:36,800 Speaker 8: thinking of them as as losers, you know, as people 213 00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:39,480 Speaker 8: who have not been able to win, and so there 214 00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:41,319 Speaker 8: is a sense of pride there. And Teum Payton was 215 00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:43,600 Speaker 8: talking about that that you want guys to take this personally, 216 00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:47,040 Speaker 8: that care, that want people to think of them as winners, 217 00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:49,319 Speaker 8: as successful. I think said that goes for both as 218 00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:51,880 Speaker 8: a team and as individuals. 219 00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:53,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, and so definitely, if you're. 220 00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:56,960 Speaker 8: Justin Simmons, you know, I think people probably look pretty 221 00:09:56,960 --> 00:10:00,840 Speaker 8: favorably on you because you led the league and interceptions 222 00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:03,400 Speaker 8: you were tied for the league despite missing five games, 223 00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:05,520 Speaker 8: but you haven't had that team success. And so if 224 00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:08,240 Speaker 8: you're Justin Simmons, if you're a Courtland Sutton, who I'm 225 00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:10,520 Speaker 8: sure wants to get back to playing like he did 226 00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:13,319 Speaker 8: back in twenty nineteen. You want to change how people 227 00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:16,439 Speaker 8: think of you, that that can be an incredibly motivating force. 228 00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:18,720 Speaker 8: And Sean Payton was saying, once you get a few 229 00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:22,560 Speaker 8: of those guys, it's contagious with everybody. And Justin was 230 00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:25,600 Speaker 8: he was succinct. He just said, I that resonates with me, 231 00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:28,640 Speaker 8: and in not a lot to Justin is normally a 232 00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:31,960 Speaker 8: guy who speaks quite a bit. Not much they needed 233 00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:34,040 Speaker 8: to be said there, just that resonates with me. And 234 00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:36,600 Speaker 8: winning is the most important thing, yep. 235 00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:38,560 Speaker 2: And that was Sean Payn's message to the team too 236 00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:40,720 Speaker 2: at the start of chraineing camp. He said the number 237 00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:42,800 Speaker 2: one thing is to win and to find ways to win. 238 00:10:42,920 --> 00:10:43,079 Speaker 7: Yeah. 239 00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:43,719 Speaker 1: Absolutely. 240 00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:46,160 Speaker 2: Going back to practice, Eric, you know, head coach Sean Payn, 241 00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:48,640 Speaker 2: he was asked about Chavonte Williams and some of these 242 00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:51,040 Speaker 2: guys that were you injured in the off season and 243 00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:52,880 Speaker 2: it sounds like Eric that you know, there's going to 244 00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:55,200 Speaker 2: be different plans for different players. As you know, Sean 245 00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:57,280 Speaker 2: Payton eases some of these you know, guys who were 246 00:10:57,320 --> 00:10:58,760 Speaker 2: injured back into practice. 247 00:10:58,960 --> 00:10:59,200 Speaker 8: Yeah. 248 00:10:59,200 --> 00:10:59,720 Speaker 1: Absolutely. 249 00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:01,800 Speaker 8: And Lowry we talked a lot about him in the 250 00:11:01,840 --> 00:11:04,880 Speaker 8: offseason and how big of an addition, he was it 251 00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:06,520 Speaker 8: sounds like he and Sean are going to meet every 252 00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:08,280 Speaker 8: day and talk about some of these guys that are 253 00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:10,280 Speaker 8: you know, whether it's people that are coming back from 254 00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:14,120 Speaker 8: injuries last season, you know, these serious types of deals, 255 00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:16,400 Speaker 8: whether it's a torn acl or you know, whatever it 256 00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:19,160 Speaker 8: might be. Then there's a group, it sounds like, with 257 00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:21,040 Speaker 8: guys that pick up injuries that are kind of a 258 00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:23,560 Speaker 8: day to day sort of situation. And then there's of 259 00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:26,320 Speaker 8: course the the veterans like a Kareem Jackson, an older 260 00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:29,040 Speaker 8: guy that they just want to keep fresh. But what 261 00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:31,680 Speaker 8: stood out to me was that with a Javonte Williams 262 00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:34,680 Speaker 8: with A, I would assume a's Tim Patrick, maybe an 263 00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:37,000 Speaker 8: Aaron Patrick. You know, he didn't Tehm Payton didn't name 264 00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:39,960 Speaker 8: other guys, but those are players coming back from similar 265 00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:43,080 Speaker 8: injuries to Javonte. You're gonna have days where they're gonna 266 00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:44,680 Speaker 8: be full, you have days where they're limited. You're gon 267 00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:47,200 Speaker 8: have days where they don't practice and kind of maintenance days. 268 00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:51,720 Speaker 8: And you know, it's interesting because sometimes you see this 269 00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:55,160 Speaker 8: linear progression where you don't do anything and then you're limited, 270 00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:57,680 Speaker 8: and then you're full, and you just stay full and 271 00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:01,560 Speaker 8: the idea that hey, you're pushing your body a little 272 00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:03,080 Speaker 8: bit one day and then you back off a little 273 00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:05,760 Speaker 8: bit and then you go back. It seems to me, 274 00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:08,520 Speaker 8: and certainly Bo Lowry is the expert here. Yeah, and 275 00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:10,800 Speaker 8: he's got a plan to get these guys ready to play. 276 00:12:11,920 --> 00:12:14,240 Speaker 8: But you know, it is worth noting that they're gonna 277 00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:16,720 Speaker 8: they are working these guys back. It's not like just 278 00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:19,360 Speaker 8: because Javonte Williams is full one day that he's just 279 00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:22,960 Speaker 8: full for the rest of camp. So it'll be worth monitoring. 280 00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:25,560 Speaker 8: But nice to see him out there, certainly for the 281 00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:26,000 Speaker 8: first day. 282 00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:27,839 Speaker 1: Yeah, it was great to see everyone out there today. 283 00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:30,760 Speaker 2: Eric, first day, like head coach On Payton said, good 284 00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:31,920 Speaker 2: first day exactly. 285 00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:34,400 Speaker 1: Yes, it will. We'll be right back here tomorrow for 286 00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:37,120 Speaker 1: day two. Eric, thanks for hopping on. See you tomorrow. 287 00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:39,480 Speaker 2: Well that'll do it for tonight's episode of Broncos Now 288 00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:42,120 Speaker 2: Broncos Country, thanks so much for tuning in. Now that 289 00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:44,760 Speaker 2: the off season is over, Broncos Now will be returning 290 00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:47,040 Speaker 2: to a daily podcast, So I'll meet you right back 291 00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:50,280 Speaker 2: here on the Broncos Podcast Network and YouTube tomorrow for 292 00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:51,160 Speaker 2: another episode. 293 00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:52,040 Speaker 1: You are then
