Broncos innovation continues with Gatorade hydration study

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- When some of the Broncos wore Gatorade sweat patches last weekend at practice, the goal wasn't to improve performance in July or August.

Instead, the team is searching for an edge down the stretch -- in December, in January and in February. And so inside UCHealth Training Center, the Broncos are looking for innovative ways to keep the players at peak performance. A partnership with the Gatorade Sports Science Institute is simply the latest example of the Broncos' emphasis on providing the latest and greatest technology to aid players.

Six scientists from the institute spent time at Broncos training camp on Friday and Saturday to determine specific hydration procedures for Broncos players who play the most reps.
