LAGUNA HILLS, Calif. — On a warm April day, Mark Sanchez walks into ProSport Performance & Therapy, his local gym, and straight into conversation. He talks with employees before heading to an open training table in the back of the room. Sanchez begins his preworkout routine, sticking four small circular pads across his right shoulder while attaching the cables of a Compex muscle stimulator. As the electrotherapy runs through his body, making him look like a science experiment, Sanchez provides a bolt of lightning.
"Coming to the Denver Broncos, this is a gift-wrapped opportunity. I believe in fate and destiny," he said, his conversational tone turning serious. "There's no excuse. I need to take full advantage. There's nothing more important in my life than this."
AND
In what general manager John Elway categorized as the first step in a process, he acquired Sanchez from the Philadelphia Eagles on March 11 for a conditional seventh-round draft pick. How Sanchez learned of the trade hints, in part, why the Broncos wanted him.
"Mark doesn't have people around him who tell him how good he is. He's a pro's pro. Every little detail matters. He puts in the time, and that's what he was doing on that day," said longtime trainer Rick Stassi. "To see the expression on his face after he took that phone call — I will always remember how happy he was."
