Denver Broncos wide receiver Eddie Royal is being groomed as an offensive centerpiece after a breakout rookie campaign a year ago.
“He sticks out every day,” Denver coach Josh McDaniels said. “Eddie is a very talented player, a lot of ability, very smart, versatile. We move him all over the field. He’s very unselfish, wants to do what’s best for the team. He’s accepted his role and he’s doing a great job with it so far.”
Kyle Orton completed so many passes to Brandon Stokley during the controlled scrimmage at Invesco Field at Mile High that no one should have trouble learning who will play the Wes Welker role in the Broncos’ new offense this year. But there was also a smattering of boos from the gathering of 13,402 fans after Orton was intercepted twice by cornerback Andre Goodman, who returned one for a touchdown.
“Made some mistakes, did some good things,” Orton said. “Got some things to learn from.”
