ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — Wade Harman couldn’t get the final word braveness award with out his most cancers battle going public.

Harman, the Broncos’ tight ends coach, and receiver Courtland Sutton had been co-recipients of Denver’s Ed Block Braveness Award, head coach Vic Fangio introduced Thursday.

To clarify why Harman was honored, Fangio revealed his assistant coach was identified with prostate most cancers eight months in the past.

“Went via the therapy throughout coaching camp and the preseason,’’ Fangio stated. “Many occasions we’d be stretching out right here at 9:15 (a.m.) and he’d be pulling in from his therapy and strolling proper on the sphere for stretch.”

Sutton overcame a torn ACL harm that sidelined him for the ultimate 14 video games of the 2020 season, however he was able to play in Recreation 1 this yr and he had a career-best 9 catches and 159 yards in Recreation 2 at Jacksonville.

“Clearly very deserving. He had the powerful ACL harm final yr, had a tricky rehab,’’ Fangio stated. “However he fought via it with an awesome dedication. Not every single day in rehab is an effective day, however you wouldn’t know that by being round Courtland via his rehab. And I noticed Courtland virtually every single day via his rehab. Even when he wasn’t having a very good day, he had the angle that tomorrow could be a greater day.”

Fangio stated Harman is about “as clear as you might be at this stage. As you understand with most cancers it’s a five-year sort factor when you’ll be able to ring the bell and that stuff. However he’s doing actually good proper now. And we’re all hoping.’’

Fortunately for Harman, the NFL’s in depth bodily exams helped group medical doctors detect his most cancers early.

“Once you do detect prostate most cancers early, there’s a excessive charge of beating it,’’ Fangio stated. “And that’s what we hope is the case right here.”

The Broncos’ head coach added that few inside Broncos headquarters had been conscious of Harman’s combat, particularly early within the course of.

“He simply stored truckin’ alongside,’’ Fangio stated. “You guys know Wade, he’s an outdated nation bumpkin from Iowa on the farm. He’s a tricky sucker.”
