Sauerbrun Returns To Denver

AP - Todd Sauerbrun hated leaving Denver on bad terms last fall. Now he's getting a chance to atone for his blunder with the Broncos.

The 13-year veteran punter agreed to a one-year contract Thursday with the team that jettisoned him last October after he was suspended for violating the NFL's drug policy. He was caught using the banned dietary aid ephedra in a misguided attempt to lose weight and gain gusto for his workouts.

Sauerbrun's deal with Denver was worth more than the $1.395 million he was scheduled to make with the Broncos last year. Sauerbrun started the 2006 season with Denver, but lost his job to Paul Ernster while serving a four-game suspension for using ephedra.

Sauerbrun, who is expected to sign the contract on Friday, and Ernster will compete for the job in training camp this summer. [READ]
