Denver Broncos WR KJ Hamler says season-ending injury led to necessary mental health help

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- For the first time since he suffered knee and hip injuries in the Denver Broncos' Week 3 win over the New York Jets last season, wide receiver KJ Hamler practiced with his teammates Monday.

And his short jog from the locker room to the practice field to open his day was another important step in a physical and emotional recovery from what he called the "lowest point of my life." A recovery that has included not only repairing his body, but the discovery he could seek out help for the personal issues that arrived in his life when football was not part of the equation.
