Ecstatic To Enter The Locker Room

November 4th, 2009 - 5:17pm by Chris GentilvisoOther posts by

The last time Carlton Powell suited up for the Broncos, the defense turned in the type of performance it had been craving all preseason.

The Broncos shut out the Cardinals in the exhibition finale, 19-0, at INVESCO Field at Mile High. Seven games later, Denver is 6-1 and its defense leads the NFL in yards allowed per game (266.7).

Back in orange and blue after being signed to the practice squad on Tuesday, those totals were no shock to Powell.

“I’m not surprised at all, from the work ethic everybody had put in during training camp and the type of scheme that we’re running now,” he said. “I kind of expected this and I’m definitely glad to be back and be a part of it.”

Dove Valley Update: March 10

March 10th, 2009 - 2:53pm by Adam ZinserOther posts by

It’s called the offseason. After all, the Broncos aren’t holding practices or playing games on Sundays.

But as Daniel Graham said last Friday at a community event, “What offseason?”

With the offseason conditioning program set to kickoff Monday, March 16 at Dove Valley, a number of guys are already back in town to get ready. Sure, many of them enjoyed traveling around the country and relaxing, but even then, most of them have been working out to stay in shape so that they can hit the ground running once the team reconvenes.

This morning, there were several players in the locker room and training room at Dove Valley. Boss Bailey, Peyton Hillis, Kory Lichtensteiger, Tyler Polumbus, Carlton Powell and Ryan Torain were all at the facility.

Jacobs Released; Powell to Reserve/PUP

August 26th, 2008 - 1:26pm by Adam ZinserOther posts by

The Broncos had to trim their roster to 75 players today, and after releasing/waiving three yesterday, the team got to the league mandated number with two more transactions today.

The Broncos released wide receiver Taylor Jacobs and placed Carlton Powell on the reserve/physically unable to perform list, Head Coach Mike Shanahan announced.

Jacobs joined the Broncos on November 6 of last year and played in six games. He was waived earlier this offseason and then rejoined the team for training camp.

The Broncos selected Powell in the fifth round of the 2008 NFL Draft, but he injured his right Achilles tendon during the team’s offseason conditioning program in July.
