His attorneys, Michael Hoague and Nick Mango, also did not return repeated phone calls. ``He's a good guy who's had bad guidance and listens sometimes to the wrong people,'' said Denver Broncos safety Tyler Everett, a friend of Clarett's since they were 12 years old and a teammate at Ohio State. Clarett was born with a gift for creating holes and slithering through them. Big and strong at 6 feet, 230 pounds, he made even the toughest def |

DENVER (AP) -Gerard Warren was in a jovial mood as he gingerly walked off the practice field on Tuesday. The dislocated left big toe was still bothering him, but the Denver Broncos defensive lineman wanted to give the toe a test run. It passed inspection. ``It's feeling a lot better than it did a few weeks ago,'' Warren said in a loud, booming voice for everyone to hear. The last time the Broncos saw Warren on the practice field he was lying on the ground, screaming in pain. He injured the toe on Aug |

DENVER (AP) -The only certainty in the Denver Broncos' offensive backfield is that Ron Dayne has his work cut out for him this week as he tries to make the roster after missing most of training camp. The former Heisman Trophy winner was the projected starter when camp began but he quickly lost that status to undrafted rookie Mike Bell and then got hurt in the first preseason game. He sat out 12 days of practice and two games with turf toe, and so it would appear his only hope now is to have a monster g |

DENVER (AP) -The time away from football actually went by fast for Javon Walker. Taking a year off from all the hits rejuvenated the Denver Broncos wide receiver, even if he had to endure rehabbing a torn ligament in his right knee. Still, Walker was eager to make that initial reception for Denver. So eager, in fact, that he got a little excited when it finally happened. When Walker hauled in a 16-yard catch during the Broncos' 17-14 win over Houston on Sunday, he sat on the turf for a moment - to ma |

DENVER (AP) -Denver Broncos coach Mike Shanahan and his son, Kyle, the Houston Texans' wide receivers coach, were careful not to say too much to each other on the eve of their preseason matchup. The younger Shanahan said his dad was too sneaky and would undoubtedly pry something out of him, so he wasn't willing to say much more than ``Hey, Dad. See you Sunday night.'' The elder Shanahan said it was his son who was the spy in the family. ``He's pretty good at stealing information. I think he might be |

DENVER (AP) -Now that recalcitrant receiver Ashley Lelie is no longer their problem, the Denver Broncos will spend the next several months answering two key questions: -Are they better without him? -Are they better off without him? ``It's tough to know right now,'' Denver defensive end Courtney Brown said. ``Time will tell us and him.'' The NFL's leader in yards per catch the last two seasons could have provided the Broncos with a high-octane trio by teaming with former Pro Bowl receivers Rod Smith |
