The Broncos’ newest player was easy to miss walking through the doors at Dove Valley on Wednesday — if not for his cheek-busting grin and the pep in his step. Justin Forsett returned home to a place he has never been. And he’s thrilled.
“When you see me coming off the bus, I don’t wow you with appearance,” Forsett said. “I’m 5-foot-8, 197 pounds. Coach Kube, though, he doesn’t care. He trusts me. This was the right place at the right time.”
Forsett, the 31-year-old veteran running back signed by the Broncos on Monday as a stop-gap for an injury-depleted rushing corps, knows his coach, Gary Kubiak, and the Denver offense as though he has been here all season.
