The Broncos got some good news on both sides of the ball Thursday.

According to Mike Klis of the Denver Post, both tight end Julius Thomas (knee) and cornerback Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie were full participants in Thursday’s practice.

Thomas has missed two games, as the Broncos handle him carefully. And with multiple receiving threats (as evidenced by Eric Decker’s outburst last week)

Rodgers-Cromartie was inactive last week after injuring himself diving for a Hail Mary against the Patriots. His absence coincided with the Patriots’ comeback in the second half, and getting him back on the field will help stabilize a secondary that’s looked shaky at points.
