(AP) -The Denver Broncos have signed quarterback Kyle Orton to a long-term contract extension, throwing a wrench into rookie Tim Tebow's designs on taking away his starting job any time soon.

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (AP) -Tim Tebow is missing his second straight practice, putting his home preseason debut in question. The Denver Broncos' rookie quarterback apparently suffered bruised ribs in his first pro game Sunday night at Cincinnati when Bengals linebacker Abdul Hodge blasted him in his left side as he was scrambling for the score on the game's final play. Tebow practiced 48 hours later, although he skipped the post-practice sprints that he usually wins. He left the field Wednesday during warmu |

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (AP) -Tim Tebow missed his first practice of training camp after jogging off the field during warmups on Wednesday.

The spread option is a run-first offense, but ``Bay-Bay'' Thomas was a first-round pick of the Denver Broncos this year after his 46 receptions for 1,154 yards and eight TDs in 2009. Thomas was the second Georgia Tech receiver in four years to be picked in the first round of the NFL draft. Calvin Johnson was the No. 2 overall pick by Detroit in 2007. Hill |
