Duane Brown returned to the practice field today. "Duane participated today," Kubiak said. "We were pretty light in what we did, so that I could get everybody involved." "Duane did everything," Kubiak said. "He actually stayed out there a little bit extra. It was a big step in the right direction. But he's still day-to-day."
