Aqib Talib

Denver Broncos cornerback Aqib Talib is expected to return to practice on Monday, roughly two months after he was shot in the leg.

Talib previously said he was feeling “great” and did not appear to be walking with a limp, but he has still yet to take part in training camp.

Broncos CB Aqib Talib, who suffered a gunshot wound to the leg during the offseason, will practice today for the first time.

We still know very little about the incident earlier this offseason that left Talib hospitalized. He was fortunate to only need stitches after being shot, though we don’t really know what happened. Reports indicated there was a lot of alcohol involved, and the NFL has been investigating.

Talib has been one of the best defensive backs in football since joining the Broncos. He’s still in his prime at age 30, so the defending champs could really use him back and healthy.
