Broncos Team Report (Yahoo! Sports) - (08/25)

No matter how many games Brandon Marshall plays for the Denver Broncos this season, he appears poised to put up some big numbers. Marshall had a great training camp and productive preseason. He finished it with a big performance in Denver's third preseason game against Green Bay. He had two catches for 71 yards and a touchdown, and also drew a 31-yard pass interference call. This preseason, Marshall had 10 catches for 139 yards and two touchdowns in about five quarters of action. That will probably be it for Marshall until sometime in September. The Broncos don't play any of their regular starters in the preseason finale, and Marshall will probably sit as well. Then he starts a suspension for violating the NFL conduct policy.
