When a 6-foot-5, 255-pound chiseled dude walks up to the team entrance at Sports Authority Field, you’d think the security guard would know he’s part of the team. Apparently not, though, when you’re a rookie who got injured on the very first day of rookie minicamp before many people had a chance to learn who you were.
This was the case for Broncos tight end Jeff Heuerman who, on Monday, shared some of the funnier struggles of never getting to see the field during his rookie year due to an ACL tear.
“I remember sometimes going to the games they’d make me walk through security,” he said with a laugh.
