For the first time in three weeks, perennial Pro Bowl cornerback Champ Bailey (hamstring) will be on the field for the Broncos on Sunday, says Champ himself.
Bailey said when Denver faces the San Diego Chargers at home, “I’m playing, period.” Recovering from an injured hamstring, Bailey fully participated in every practice session this week.
The Broncos are eager to have Bailey back, who couldn’t have chosen a better week to return as quarterback Phillip Rivers and receiver Vincent Jackson will be coming to town this weekend.
In fourteen career games against the Chargers, Bailey has recorded 73 tackles, four interceptions (one of which was returned for a touchdown), one forced fumble and fourteen passes defended.
