Welcome to Day 3 of Denver Broncos training camp.

The first two days of camp have been fairly competitive with both sides of the ball getting the upper hand at times.

It's been a competitive first couple of days, offense and defense, which is what you want to see," quarterback Bo Nix said on Saturday. Both sides of the ball have been making a lot of plays. It's just a fun time right now."

One thing that has come up in both days so far has been the explosive plays on offense. Nix has been finding big plays with a variety of receivers, but so have the backup quarterbacks. Where the defense has come up big has been in shutting things down as the field gets shorter. That competition is going to help both units get better at performing well in games.

This is exciting to see early in camp. I am still traveling, so Scotty Payne will be covering the live updates again for me today. Go Broncos!
