Jeff Heuerman progressing in knee recovery

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — About seven weeks after suffering a torn ACL, Jeff Heuerman is making big strides every day.

"I wouldn't call them big strides," he said with a laugh, "not literally, because they're actually pretty small strides—but I'm making progress."

OK, well, every day Heuerman is making bigger strides.

"Each day’s a bigger step, which it kind of sounds corny and it kind of sounds like I’m just saying that, but it really is," Heuerman said.

He said he started walking about a week ago and expects to be able to get back in the weight room with the training staff in a week.
