The Denver Broncos' offense will be at full strength for training camp.

Wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders and running back Phillip Lindsay - whose 2018 seasons were ended by an Achilles tear and a wrist injury, respectively - were both declared ready to go as the team reported for camp Wednesday, according to Josh Alper of Pro Football Talk.

Lindsay said earlier this week he felt "100 percent" prepared to rejoin his teammates after sitting out the offseason, while Sanders was a candidate to start camp on the physically unable to perform list.

"We'll ease them in, but we'll get them in quickly," said head coach Vic Fangio, according to Nicki Jhabvala of The Athletic.

At the start of July, Sanders said it felt "realistic" for him to be available for the Broncos' season opener.

If Denver's top wideout missed the start of the year, Courtland Sutton and DaeSean Hamilton would be tasked with leading a mostly unproven receiving corps.
