DENVER -- In the end, Menelik Watson was still at work. He didn’t have a ring in his pocket -- or pockets, for that matter -- but during the third quarter of the Denver Broncos’ preseason game Saturday night, Watson decided to drop to his left knee in full uniform and change his life as he proposed to his girlfriend, Azania Stewart.
A somewhat stunned Stewart, standing on the rail in the front row of stands near the Broncos bench, quickly said yes as those around her celebrated.
"She was very shocked, she didn’t think I was serious at first," Watson said.
