Broncos' Shane Ray says he's '100 percent' healthy heading into camp

Denver Broncos rookie Shane Ray has declared himself completely healthy after a toe injury limited him during the offseason.

The talented pass rusher fell to the Broncos in the first round of the draft after being cited for marijuana possession. Now fully recovered, Ray doesn't expect to miss any time during training camp, crediting the Broncos organization with helping him get past a nagging toe injury.

"I'm 100 percent - full go," Ray said according to the team's official website. "All drills, 100 percent. The issue was that I didn't have any time to rest during the pre-draft process and get the proper treatment. As soon as I got here, I got the things that I needed, the treatment that I needed and the orthotics that I needed, and my recovery happened like it was supposed to. Now it is not an issue."

Ray should fit into the Broncos' plans this season, as the team moved up five spots to grab him. He'll rotate in as a pure pass rusher behind Von Miller and DeMarcus Ware.
