Receiver Brandon Marshall’s timetable for recovery from an arm injury should put him back on the field before training camp, but the matter is still not ideal for the Denver Broncos.
Marshall will have his arm immobilized six weeks before he can begin rehabilitation. Marshall said he fell through a television and suffered serious injuries to his forearm while on a family vacation. Marshall said he and his brother Fred were wrestling around, he fell off balance and lost control when he tried to avoid a McDonald’s bag.
“My arm went right through the TV,” Marshall said.
