Shane Ray eager to prove himself at training camp

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- Shane Ray knows that as a first-round pick he's coming into training camp with larger expectations than most rookies, but he also knows that many observers don't really know what to expect from him.

With Pro Bowl outside linebackers Von Miller and DeMarcus Ware on the left and right flanks, Ray's prospective impact is a bit of a wild card.

"I feel like they have really high expectations," Ray said. "They basically told me, 'You didn’t come here to ride the bench. You came here to help this team,' and so with that being said, every day that I come here I’m trying to get better, I’m trying to be the best that I can be so I can help this team accomplish this goal, which is a Super Bowl.
