PrintThe Denver Broncos have signed wide receiver D'Andre Goodwin from their practice squad and placed fullback Spencer Larsen on their injured reserve.
Goodwin and Tim Tebow showed a good rapport in the preseason during their main game together. Goodwin went for three receptions and 49-yards in the final preseason game against the Arizona Cardinals.
Larsen went down Week 17 against the Kansas City Chiefs with a knee injury. The Broncos don't have a true fullback on the roster to replace him.
Denver replaced Goodwin on the practice squad with wide receiver Tim Toone who spent 2011 on the Buffalo Bills practice squad and 2010 on the Detroit Lions practice squad after being drafted by them in the seventh round.

"The Denver Broncos on Tuesday signed wide receiver D’Andre Goodwin to their active roster and placed fullback Spencer Larsen on injured reserve.
Also on Tuesday, Denver signed wide receiver Tim Toone to its practice squad. Goodwin (5-foot-11, 188 pounds) is a rookie who spent the majority of the 2011 season on Denver’s practice squad after signing with the Broncos as a college free agent from the University of Washington.
Toone (5-foot-10, 185 pounds) is a first-year player who spent time on practice squads with Buffalo (2011) and Detroit (2010) after being selected by the Lions in the seventh round (255th overall) of the 2010 NFL Draft from Weber State University."

Sucks for Spence
But we needed the security depth. I wonder how bad Larsen’s knee really is?

It didn't look that severe
as far as being out for a lengthy time, but it is the playoffs and roster spots are valuable. Just look at last week when we were down Decker and Dawkins.

It doesn't bother me for the record, it just seems kinda funny that you keep mentioning it
since most of us here now “know” you and are keenly aware of it, just seems a little redundant is all. ;)
However, if the Broncos sign Igor Olshansky, Gabe Carimi and Sage Rosenfels, I will definitely post many reminders about my fellow Jews playing. Haha. ;)

No please don't
be proud of who you are and whatt you believe. I’m from an area that Mormom’s aren’t in or at least I don’t think so. I had to go and look up the religion. I see that Mormom believe in Christ and seems to be more strict and have more a family based thought. I’m all for that. I just didn’t really know. I’m sorry to ask but felt I should hear it from a Mormom rather than make up my own mind about it. Your comment proved to me that your faith is one of respect rather than anger. Be proud of it. I was just really asking why?

I don't want to make this about religion but I have to ask

by MileHighPride on Jan 10, 2012 12:00 PM MST up reply actions
I think his faith is definitely helping us
He believes in himself and his mission and that motivation, whether it’s true or not, is awesome for our team. He actually lives by the morals he preaches too which I couldn’t love more. If my future child grew up to think and act just like him, I couldn’t be prouder. As for me, I’ll never tell someone there beliefs are wrong because nobody knows. There’s just no way to know so I’m not going to believe in something that can’t be proven. And I believe I’m living my life as best as possible, so I can’t imagine being penalized after death for not going to a certain building every week and praying to one of several gods at random. But in the same breath, I know for a lot of people this sort of thing helps them live a moral life, so I will never say it’s wrong. It’s just not for me. As for Tebow and the Broncos, I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Hmm Royal
Just from the things you say, it seems more like you are more of an agnostic. Isn’t atheism basically “there is no God” while agnosticism is “I can’t say either way if God exists?”
There is no hope for us Catholic.

"We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give." -Winston Churchill
you probably have a heightened awareness due to multiple factors
1) There is a #1 broadway show called “The Book of Mormon”
2) There are not 1 but 2 Mormon candidates running for president
3) The Mormon church is capitalizing on the above 2 to help with the PR, increasing billboards and commercials.
So you probably are noticing it a lot more everywhere.
IMO for Bradfather or myself to be excited about Larsen or Toone is not really that much different than a Gator fan\alumni being excited we drafted Tebow. There is a connection however small that makes us like the player and root for him that much more.
^This was my point^
I wasn’t saying it so much just here but I’m seeing it alot more everywhere. I’m not saying it’s good or bad, right or wrong. I was just really wondering why the sudden change. Thanks for the info.

and not that it matters
But the Mormon church has nothing to do with the musical. It was created by the creators of south park. I’ve heard its funny and plan on seeing it but I doubt its too factual.
They also have nothing to do with Romney or Huntsman. They will not endorse either candidate. And I promise if either wins, will have about the same amount of influence as they do with Obama.
it's true

With the way this season is going...
…wouldn’t it be fitting that Toone, Mr. Irrelevant in 2010, would have a 150yard performance in the SuperBowl?
Yes, yes – I know it’s a reach. But hey, so was the Broncos getting a playoff win. Against the Steelers. With Tebow’s arm.
Well we needed to make a move to add Goodwin to the active roster and Spence was not 100%
Win the individual battles at the LOS - all else flows from that.
I so hope we keep him

What about Quan Cosby?
I know he had a bad game against the Patriots the last time, but I thought he showed glimpses of being a quality player and could have been beneficial in the playoffs because I have to believe he can run block better the Willis.
AFAIK Indy got him off waivers, so impossible for us to sign him anyways. Sure, he was a great returner, besides the when he suddenly forgot all the mental and situational aspects of being a returner and started fumbling to boot, but he had six receptions in his three years. I don’t even remember him running a single play as a WR for the Broncos (of course I could be wrong). He is just a returner at this point.

I didnt realize that Indy picked him up
I just feel with the amount we run, Willis can be a liability because he doesnt run block as well as Decker did
Was Cosby a good run blocker either?
I think on obvious running downs they’ll have DT, and put in an extra TE in place of Decker or maybe even JJ.
"..who knows what can happen… the ball is oblong and bounces wierd."
They say the cool is all over me..
Yes, Decker’s blocking will be sorely missed. Willis has shown great effort and looked pretty good when I’ve seen him block, but Decker is an excellent blocker. There was a play on the goalline where Tebow ran the ball out to the left vs. Pittsburgh and Willis couldn’t hold the block and the CB tackled Tebow. I think if Decker were blocking that it might have been a TD.

This was a good move IMO. The other move I would have considered is adding Eron Riley from the Jets squad but I like this.
I like developing our own talent and hope Goodwin makes an impact and sticks.
Tim Tebow wears 3WM and drinks Tuscan whole milk.
Good move
Goodwin looked decent in pre-season for sure. I hope he makes the most of it and helps us win.

Yeah I think it was more because of the new GM, wanting his own guy
than it was about Jackson’s personnel mistakes (which were less about his coaching).
However, 6 coaches in 7 years, that kinda instability is fine by me. Keep it going, Raiders!
Hope they don’t hire someone good like Jeff Fisher. With an actual GM in charge, instead of Al Davis, they may actually make a rational decision here for once.

That sucks Larsen, we want you out there playing! This might be a good sign that Decker really is day to day though if they keep him on the 53-man roster. At any rate, someone had to go somehow—we need depth at WR even if he doesn’t get a lot of reps, and I guess they decided they would rather keep everyone on the team (IR or otherwise) than have to cut someone and have him snatched up by one of the idle teams.

I actually think that DT playing our #1 spot rather than Decker is a positive thing
although I’d put Decker in the #2 slot.
I think DT has bigger play ability, is faster, etc and needs to be in the primary spot on the field.

Sylvester was inactive for Sunday's game. So looks like McCoy/Fox at present will be using more TE's and less use of FB.
Anyway this sucks for Larsen. I feel for any player going on IR as we go deeper into the playoffs. Just the thought of missing a possible Superbowl appearance must really hurt.

With Coach Zorro on our side, we will slice opponents to ribbons. Tim Tebow gives me hope and I already have faith and charity in my heart! I see a propitious future rife with Lombardis for our Broncos!

I trust it will be sufficient
until it’s not, I have to be an optimist, it’s who I am!
