Day six closed out with even hotter weather for the afternoon practice, but the players didn’t have to stand out in it for near as long as this morning. This time it was a special teams session that lasted a little less than an hour. Here are some quick hits from a quick practice.

ATTENDANCE REPORT: Michael Pittman was back in pads this afternoon…Peyton Hillis watched practice from the sidelines in shorts and a T-shirt…Several players were allowed to leave practice early, some as few as 15 minutes in. The group included Selvin Young, Daniel Graham and John Engelberger.

POSTURING FOR POSITION: Brett Kern and Sam Paulescu split the punting duties this afternoon.

The Broncos closed out the fourth day of camp with a quick, hour-long special teams practice. As always, here are some quick hits:

ATTENDANCE REPORT: Domonique Foxworth did not participate in today’s practice — he ran with the special teams on Saturday.

POSTURING FOR POSITION: In the team’s first drill, six returners took turns fielding kickoffs — Anthony Alridge, Andre Hall, Glenn Martinez, Michael Pittman, Eddie Royal and Clifford Russell. In the second drill, only five returners rotated in: Taylor Jacobs and Marquay McDaniel joined the group of Martinez, Royal and Alridge.

Saturday afternoon’s practice was solely for special teams, so as a chunk of the team ran drills on the field, the rest of the players hit the weight room a little early. Here are a few quick hits from the session:

ATTENDANCE REPORT: Rookie Spencer Larsen, who would most likely have taken part in this afternoon’s special teams practice, was absent attending to a family emergency. Chad Mustard, out of pads for both of the first days of training camp, jogged on the opposite field during practice. Newly-signed Taylor Jacobs took part in his first practice of training camp.

POSTURING FOR POSITION: The players fielding punts were Anthony Alridge, Glenn Martinez, Marquay McDaniel and Eddie Royal. Rookie Bret Kern and second-year vet Sam Palescu continued to share the punting duties, though many of the “punts” were made by a JUGS machine — essentially wheels spinning really quickly that launch footballs.
