Good morning, #BroncosCountry –
Happy hump day! The Broncos return to practice today and begin their preparations for the Browns. While the team gets back into the swing of things, here are three things to get caught up on, starting with the Broncos' Drive for Life 18:
1. Drive for Life 18
The Broncos teamed with Bonfils Blood Center on Tuesday for their annual day-long blood drive at Sports Authority Field at Mile High.
The goal for the day was over 1,000 donations and with the help of the Denver community, the Broncos surpassed the goal by more than 100 donations.
Broncos players came out in droves to help the cause and meet with donors. Those who donated also got an opportunity to play cornhole and to throw footballs with players.
Check out some of our favorite tweets from the event:

The Broncos brought their families to help with the cause

Bennie Fowler and Evan Mathis got their competitive juices flowing
2. The 'Ryan Harris'
We don't know how this happened, but it is glorious.
Tackle Ryan Harris somehow had a doughnut at Habit Doughnuts named after him.
The 'Ryan Harris' is a creamsicle-filled, citrus-glazed brioche doughnut – which sounds pretty incredible.
Habit Doughnut … we would like one named after us, OK? Thanks.
