ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- A funny thing happened after the Denver Broncos brought two quarterbacks to town this offseason.

Kyle Orton -- the man the Broncos were clearly looking to, at least, challenge with the moves -- has flourished. Orton had a terrific offseason session and has followed it up with a fine training camp so far.

“I think it’s my best offseason of my career,” Orton said. ‘Hopefully, I follow it up with my best season of my career. I feel really good about it.”

Orton could be forgiven if he was dour this camp. After all, it’s not about him. All eyes are on rookie Tim Tebow. Denver made a huge statement by trading three draft picks to move up and take the former Florida star at No. 25. Denver clearly thinks Tebow is the quarterback of the future and if he isn’t, it won't be known until after Denver gives Tebow the keys to the offense.

A month before drafting Tebow, Denver traded for Brady Quinn. The team made it clear Orton was still the starter for 2010.

However, it’s never a great sign for the incumbent when two players are brought in during the offseason. Still, Orton has done all the right things. He signed his restricted free-agent tender fairly early and joined his teammates for the offseason. Orton, who is set to be a free agent in 2001, has not pouted. He has just gone out and done his job.

“That’s how I’ve always done it.” said Orton, who was a part of the package that Denver got from Chicago in the Jay Cutler deal. “I don’t care what else is going on. I’m just here to do my job and lead this team.”
