"It was more of a joke," said Keo, who was in training camp with Cincinnati this summer. "I know with Wade, he's a jokester. He's a funny guy. He shares a good relationship with most of his players.
One day back at work — a simple walkthrough in the indoor facility — and Keo already feels ready.
All in good fun.
"I was just playing around,Adidas NHL Jerseys Wholesale," Keo said of his recent tweets to Phillips. "At the end of the day, I was just trying to touch base with all my coaches. This time of year,Wholesale Authentic Jordans, I know how things go — it's hard to get on, especially at my position. Not too many injuries happen at safety."
Hoping to keep his name in the mind of his former defensive coach, Shiloh Keo sent messages to Phillips via social media. And with the Broncos hurting in the secondary, the team signed Keo on Wednesday. The fifth-year veteran was drafted by the Houston Texans in 2011,WBC Jerseys 2017, when Gary Kubiak was the coach and Phillips the defensive coordinator.
The addition of Bush led to a tweet from Keo, who wrote to Phillips and said: "Didn't want to pick me up huh?"
His scheme worked out, too. The 5-foot-11,Wholesale Football Jerseys, 205-pound Keo made an impression — on Twitter and through his 42 games with the Texans after being taken in the fifth round. Keo also plays special teams.
But the Broncos have been besieged by quite a few ailments. David Bruton Jr. (knee) and Omar Bolden (hamstring) were banged up Sunday in San Diego. T.J. Ward was already sidelined with an ankle injury and is expected to miss this weekend's game against Oakland.
Keo understood and let Phillips off the hook: "I hear ya,Wholesale Air Max 720, still the same system tho. ... Keep me in mind tho if things don't pan out."
That left the Broncos with two healthy safeties in Darian Stewart and Josh Bush, who was re-signed last week.
"Everything seemed pretty similar," Keo said. "I'm thankful for the opportunity."
"I was trying to reach out to him as well, just shop around and see what they were thinking. I've been playing the game, looking at all the rosters, looking at all the moves. Just trying to stay in touch."

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (AP) — The newest Denver Broncos safety sent an all-out blitz at defensive coordinator Wade Phillips through Twitter.
They're reunited again in Denver.
To that, Phillips offered an explanation: "Keo--Josh was with us in camp and first 4 games — u know how much I think of u."
"Shiloh has been in the scheme," Kubiak said. "We feel like if need be, he could help us quickly from the standpoint of knowing what we're doing."
The ploy landed him a job.
