Thread: Back at '100 percent,' Danny Trevathan ready to roll

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- You can call it a comeback, even though Danny Trevathan has been here for years.

When team-organized workouts began Monday, the fourth-year linebacker was right there with his fellow Broncos, lifting, pulling, lunging and running. No one was happier for the chance to start anew after a 2014 season wrecked by three injuries around the knee -- two bone fractures and finally, on Dec. 14, a disclocated kneecap that dealt a knockout blow to a season in which he played just three games.

"It's doing good, man," he said after his workout Thursday. "I feel like last year was a setback, but this year is a big comeback for me. They've been doing a good job in the treatment room with me, and I've just been pushing it and being smart about it."

It took Trevathan 54 days to return from the first fracture, suffered in a training-camp practice Aug. 12. The second fracture, incurred early in the Oct. 12 win over the New York Jets, led to a 63-day recovery and rehabilitation before his season ended on the day of his second return at San Diego.

I hope this was just that, injury. I hope his knees aren't glass. Really like him!

The first step was recovering from the knee problems during the last four months.

"I'm 100 percent," he said. "I've got a new kneecap, and I'm just working as hard as I can, man. It feels good to have a new kneecap."

Hmm - HGH me thinks.

*fingers crossed *

Great news

Danny T is actually a damn good LB. If there is one thing im excited about this year it is the 3-4 defense with these LBs. Ware, Marshall, Trevathan and Miller is a very solid core. Having them all on the field I think is a priority.

Heard that from Courtney Brown as well...

They always say they are good, it's what happens on the field that defines if it's true or not.

It doesn't mean he's being less than honest. He may very well be healthy but doesn't mean his body will hold up to pounding it will take over the course of a season.

And that is exactly what I said with the first post.

Never said he wasn't being honest. Sometimes injuries are career ending, I hope that's not the case here.

We definitely need some linebacker depth out of this draft. I wouldn't be surprised to see as many as 3 selected by the Broncos this year.

I think your worries are well founded.

Thank you, I thought I wasn't explaining myself well, but no other way to explain it.
