The Broncos won’t be getting their first look at two rookie receivers in Sunday’s preseason opener against the Bengals.

The highest profile player still without a team is Brian Westbrook, although that’s expected to change soon.

Lynell Hamilton‘s season-ending injury has put the Saints back in the running back market.

As expected, it was a short day of work for Peyton Manning, who played two series of the Colts’ preseason opener against the 49ers.
