Pontiac's KJ Hamler ready to be another reliable target for Russell Wilson, Broncos

Associated Press

Denver — Denver Broncos starting receiver KJ Hamler lobbied to play in the preseason finale. Not just play, either, but play quite a bit so he could make a few blocks, catch a few passes, take a few hits.

All to clear one last remaining hurdle — that the Pontiac native and former Orchard Lake St. Mary's standout was recovered from surgeries to repair his ACL and hip.

The 23-year speedster stayed in for most of the first half Saturday night against Minnesota, catching three passes for 18 yards.
