Friday Headlines: Tracy Porter Cleared to Play, Will Fly to KC

Happy Black Friday.

Whether you’re out shopping today (been there, done that), back to work (been there, done that as well), or enjoying another day off chock full of football and basketball (doing that!), here’s hoping your Tryptophan fix was all you ever hoped for.

How did the Denver Broncos spend their Thanksgiving?  They spent part of the day in Dove Valley with each other.  It was a routine Thursday during the regular season after all: practice as usual.

Cornerback Tracy Porter received some great Thanksgiving news: He’s been cleared to play.  Porter hasn’t played in over a month, and hasn’t practice since Nov. 1.  Porter is expected to travel with the team to Kansas City for Sunday’s game at Arrowhead, but he may not be among the active players:

“I finally made the plane.  Now we’ll see if I make the field.”

Porter said he hasn’t experienced any seizure-related problems in a few weeks, adding this break has been a valuable lesson:

“God has been good through this whole thing.  I looked at it as a lesson as Him trying to teach me something to get me to step back and open my eyes to something new. I think He has done that. Like I said, it’s just a lesson that He is teaching me and that I have to learn from and grow from as a man. I’ve been doing a good job in learning the lesson.”
