Menelik Watson first laid eyes on Azania Stewart when he was a teenager at a basketball camp in London. There was something special about her, a unique energy.
“I just didn’t have the confidence back then to say anything to her,” said Watson, the Broncos hulking right tackle.
On Saturday night, Watson found his confidence. He found it during the third quarter of a preseason game on the sidelines at Sports Authority Field at Mile High. He had been trying to spot Stewart, with whom he rekindled a relationship two years ago, but he couldn’t locate her in the crowd.
