Sean Payton said that Devaughn Vele 'might even play Sundayh' vs. the Green Bay Packers.
“He’ll be fine," Payton said of Vele. "We just held him and there’s a chance he might even play Sunday.”
Vele, 6-foot-5, 210 pounds, wasn't expected to make a huge impact as a rookie, especially as the second wideout the Broncos drafted. But the 26-year-old has balled out at training camp, especially the preceding 10 days. Payton loves big-bodied wide receivers, as evidenced by Courtland Sutton, Tim Patrick, and Lil'Jordan Humphrey, all of whom are 6-foot-4. Fourth-round rookie Troy Franklin and newcomer Josh Reynolds is 6-foot-3, as is David Sills V. Even Brandon Johnson is 6-foot-2, while the shifty Jalen Virgil checks in at 6-foot-1.
