The Broncos moved inside for practice in the Pat Bowlen Fieldhouse Friday, but the intensity ramped up. Helmets and shoulder pads meant contact and more game-like drills.
The defense went out there without their starting safeties T.J. Ward (sprained left ankle) and Darian Stewart (sprained right MCL) at full strength.
Ward was out at practice for the second straight day, but he didn't have a helmet meaning the team will likely list him as a "did not participate." Stewart was out on the field for the first time Friday, but he wore sweat pants and did more watching than anything.
