Broncos Training Camp: Who Steps Up at Defensive End?

The first major injury for the Denver Broncos was dealt on Monday morning during the 19th day of training camp for the defense. During a drill, defensive end Vance Walker appeared to have his leg rolled up on while defending a run play.

Later on, he had his right knee immobilized by a large brace and left the facility on crutches. Then the nightmare possibility came true.

Vance Walker. Out for the season with a torn right ACL in his knee.

This could not have been a worst time for the eight year veteran.
