Broncos Links: Montee Ball’s Surgery, Chris Harris Will be Ready, Peyton Manning Continues to Amaze – 8/5/14

Broncos Links brings you Denver Broncos news, opinions, multimedia, and more from around the internet.

Good morning Broncos Country. The news can’t always be good from training camp. Yesterday we learned that Montee Ball would need surgery to remove his appendix. While it will be tough to miss him for the preseason games I can’t help but think how awful it would have been if Ball had played on Thursday night and his appendix might have burst. Best wishes for a speedy recovery Montee! Hillman – this is your chance to shine . . .
