ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- The circumstances are 180 degrees removed from ideal, but nevertheless the Broncos on Friday welcomed back an old friend just when they needed him most.
If not for the torn anterior cruciate ligament Ryan Clady suffered during Wednesday's practice, Ryan Harris would likely not be back with the Broncos. But with Clady out perhaps for the season, the Broncos needed a veteran -- preferably one familiar with the style of offense Head Coach Gary Kubiak and Offensive Coordinator Rick Dennison plan to run.
Harris started 15 games last year for the Chiefs, matching his total of starts from the 2010-13 seasons combined.
