"While the Broncos formally added tight end Daniel Fells (knee) and safety Brian Dawkins (ankle) to the injured list Wednesday, Broncos head coach John Fox did take a little good news out of the day.

And that was the status of cornerback Champ Bailey. Bailey has missed the last three games because of a hamstring injury, practiced fully for the first time since the injury and continues on track to return to the lineup Sunday against the Chargers if he continues to practice through the week.

"Any time you've got a 10-time Pro Bowler, you know, who's on the shelf or not on the buffet, it's good to have him back," Fox said. "(It) obviously makes the coach smile a little bit bigger.""
