DeMarcus Ware feels ‘like I have hit that fountain of youth’

The Denver Broncos defense has solidified itself as one the NFL’s best units, and veteran defensive end DeMarcus Ware is playing like he’s young again.

According to NFL Media’s James Palmer, Ware feels like he’s discovered something Spanish explorer Ponce de Leon failed to find.
