Broncos' fullback Kyle Johnson had his Thanksgiving plans all set when he suddenly had to cancel. Not that he minded. The Broncos called him Wednesday morning in New Jersey to see if he was available, and he was signed and at practice by Thursday. Denver released guard Isaac Snell to make room for Johnson on the roster. Johnson, who was waived by the Broncos on Sept. 1, thought he could get up to speed by Sunday's game at Chicago. He's been working out back home and keeping an eye on what was happening with Denver. Although, he couldn't bring himself to watch NFL games on Sunday. "Emotionally, it was difficult for me," Johnson said. "It was too hard."
