Vance Joseph Gives Broncos Parting Message After Minicamp
By Tylor Walden
When the Denver Broncos broke into summer vacation, head coach Vance Joseph gave his team an important lesson before they left on vacation.
Well Broncos Country, we will have to wait a while before the Denver Broncos come back. The team has taken some vacation time for the summer. No worries, the team will be back in July.
The offseason programs are now over and the work begins for the 2017 season. It will be key for the team to be ready to go for training camp. Head coach Vance Joseph wants his team ready to work when they return.
As well as coming back refreshed and ready to go, Joseph had a little parting message for his team before they left.
Part of Vance Joseph's parting message to the Broncos as they head into summer break? "Use Uber."

This is perhaps in regards to being smart when it comes to his players going out and partying. The last thing Vance Joseph wants is to get a call notifying him that one of his players were caught driving under the influence.
I completely agree with Vance Joseph here. There should be no reason that any NFL player does not use Uber or Lyft in order to get a ride home after a night where drinking is involved. There have been so many players who have decided to not call a taxi and drove. Just because they play in the NFL does not mean they get different treatment than your ordinary citizens.
Drunk driving puts yourself and others on the road at such a terrible risk. The last thing needed is for anyone’s lives to be destroyed just because you could not call a cab or request a driving service.

Kudos to Vance Joseph for giving his players this parting message. All coaches should start doing this. He gets a stamp of approval from me. We hope all the Denver Broncos players as well as others in the NFL are safe during this time period.
