D.J. up for 'D' player of week

I'm short on time so from denverbroncos.com:
The Broncos' D.J. Williams is one of five nominees for the Week 3 GMC Sierra Defensive Player of the Week, the NFL announced on Tuesday.

Williams posted a game-high 16 tackles in the Broncos’ 34 - 32 win against the New Orleans Saints. After Williams tackled Saints running back Pierre Thomas for a loss of one yard on a third-and-1 from the Denver 24 with 2:19 left to play, New Orleans missed a 43-yard field goal attempt, sealing Denver’s win.

Defensive end John Abraham of the Atlanta Falcons, defensive end Juqua Parker of the Philadelphia Eagles, linebacker Joey Porter of the Miami Dolphins and cornerback Antoine Winfield of the Minnesota Vikings are the other finalists.

Fans can vote on NFL.com/gmc beginning immediately following Monday Night Football and ending on Thursday at 4:00 pm EST to determine the winner.


Alos, Tom Nalen was put on the Broncos IR. More on that coming...
