DMN Blog: Anthony Spencer, Terence Newman will return soon

by Tim MacMahon

OLB Anthony Spencer might practice against the Broncos tomorrow after sitting out the last two days with a bruised right knee.

"It's just a little swollen," said Spencer, whose MRI didn't reveal any structural damage. "I bumped knees with somebody. Everything's good."

Terence Newman probably won't practice or play against the Broncos, but Wade Phillips said it "won't be long" until the Pro Bowl cornerback returns to practice. Newman has been sidelined since the first week of training camp with a groin pull.

"Newman's coming along," Phillips said. "We're being real cautious. We really want to get him 100 percent before he comes back."
