Respect and admiration from Broncos Country. Well deserved, Ronnie. Godspeed.

Very sad to have read this news. It was the first thing I woke up to this morning.

Denver has had way too many players pass away young and a lot recently.

Off the top of my head.
Demaryius Thomas
Darrent Williams (While active)
Damien Nash (While active)
Kenny McKinley (While active) - These 3 all occurred near the same time
Darius Johnson
Tony Jones
Jeff Lewis
Shane Dronett
Ronnie Hillman
Paul Duncan
Mitchell Henry

Apparently the prison gard on Orange is the New Black was with the Broncos for PS or something back in the day.

Here is some context for your ‘orange is the new black’ comment.

Very sad and way to young. Thoughts to his family.

“Rest in peace Ronnie,” Manning wrote on his Instagram page. “We joined the Broncos the same year. Honored to be your teammate for four years in Denver. Great player, great person, great smile. My thoughts and prayers are with his family.”

Hillman, 31, died Wednesday of renal medullary carcinoma, a rare and aggressive form of cancer. The disease primarily affects those with the sickle cell trait, but it was not known if Hillman had that trait.

Paying finals to Hillman.

From left to right in that picture is WR Emmanuel Sanders, DL Derek Wolfe, OL Ryan Harris, QB Peyton Manning, OL Orlando Franklin, TE Joel Dreessen, K Brandon McManus and player development vice president Ray Jackson.

Orlando has lost so much weight. Looks like he’s wearing daddy’s britches.

Need to go listen to Wolfe but he unloaded today on Hackett Barry and Russ after talking to Ray who is still with the team.

There are non-game related aspects about football that interest me. One of those is to see what lineman do once they retire.

I know Ryan Harris did a documentary when he was in high school going to play college and he was miserable with all the caloric intake he had to do. The camera crew followed him to a house party and the first thing he did was sit in the kitchen and eat another meal.

And I know Orlando Franklin talked about eating piles of fast food to maintain his playing weight and not wanting to do that anymore.

Both look great.
