During Colorado's first player-run practice of the summer on Wednesday, linebacker Addison Gillam hit the field for the first time since a knee injury ended his 2015 season prematurely.
Never one to go half speed, Gillam went all-out. Team trainers intervened and pulled him out.
"There's nothing holding me back, but they don't want to throw me in there and maybe something does go wrong," Gillam said.
The last thing Gillam and the Buffaloes want is another setback. The past two years have been filled with them for Gillam, and he's beyond ready to play a full, healthy season.
