ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- Back on the field after a knee injury wiped out his rookie season, Denver Broncos tight end Jeff Heuerman is working to make his presence felt this season.Heuerman, the Broncos third-round pick out of Ohio State in 2015, has been a full participant in training camp practices and is looking forward to making his NFL debut Thursday, when the defending Super Bowl champions play their exhibition opener at Chicago.Its going to be my first game action in a long time, said Heuerman, whose last game appearance was for Ohio State in the College Football Playoff national championship, a 42-20 win over Oregon on Jan. 12, 2015.The bodys feeling good.
