In the third episode of Hall of Famer Terrell Davis and NFL writer James Palmer’s “Salute to Broncos Country” series, the duo try to find Miles the Mascot in the belly of Empower Field at Mile High.
In order to help them find Miles, Davis and Palmer enlist the help of Denver Broncos’ mascot coordinator Brad Post. Together, all three of them go over some of Miles’ likely haunts: the Children’s hospital, on the field or the ski slopes. Post suggests the pair visit the mascot’s locker room.
On their way there, Palmer and Davis get a “whiff” of Miles, and upon spotting the elusive horse, they try to catch him. Miles eludes them, escaping and barricading himself in the locker room. While Davis and Palmer pound on the door to try and get him to come out, the mascot takes off the hoof hands and his head, revealing Davis’ old teammate and Broncos icon, wide receiver Ed McCaffrey.
McCaffrey gives a wink to the camera at the end of the video.
In previous episodes “Salute to Broncos Country,” Davis and Palmer examined the origins of the Mile High Salute and mixed-and-matched uniform combinations from the Mile High Collection. In the uniform episode, Davis put on the full uniform and he looks like he could still play today. Fans can watch more of the series on the team’s YouTube page.
