ENGLEWOOD, Colo. \u2014 A day after Broncos wide receivers Emmanuel Sanders and Courtland Sutton fought at training camp, the pair who threw punches and water bottles at each other presented a unified front, joking that their next bout will be on pay-per-view for a cool $69.99.<\/p>\n

\u201cTickets go on sale tomorrow,\u201d Sanders said Tuesday as he and Sutton stood before reporters who asked what had sparked the scuffle between teammates who play the same position and even went to the same school, SMU.<\/p>\n

Neither gave any details about what led to the tussle, but both said they had put the disagreement to rest.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt stands good,\u201d Sanders said. \u201cObviously, we\u2019re family. We went to the same school, grew up in the same area. It was a miscommunication. That\u2019s just what it is. But at the end of the day, we\u2019re back on the same page, trying to be the best receivers in the world.<\/p>\n

\u201cSometimes through failure there\u2019s growth and I feel like me and him have grown through this in terms of just bringing that dog out of us even more in terms of just ready to win and ready to tear it up.\u201d<\/p>\n

Sutton, a second-year pro who declared himself the No. 1 receiver this spring, concurred with Sanders, a 10-year veteran coming back from a torn Achilles tendon.<\/p>\n

\u201cOne hundred percent,\u201d Sutton said. \u201cI think what Emmanuel said was right on point. We\u2019re brothers at the end of the day. That\u2019s all that matters. Like he said, we went to the same school. This is a dude I look up to, a dude I\u2019ve been watching for a long time, chasing his records and getting here and following in his footsteps.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo, you know, all that stuff is swept under the rug, we\u2019re moving on to bigger and better things. We\u2019re ready to win and take what we have here and keep growing it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ignoring further questions, Sanders again touted their next \u201cbout\u201d on pay-per-view before both walked away.<\/p>\n

Quarterback Joe Flacco said he\u2019d pay to see Round 2.<\/p>\n

\u201cYeah, why not? I\u2019d watch it,\u201d Flacco said. \u201cI might have a front-row seat, though, I don\u2019t have to pay. I get a front-row ticket.<\/p>\n

\u201cNo, hey, like I said, it\u2019s part of this sport. It\u2019s physical. Guys\u2019 emotions are high. We\u2019ve been here for a few weeks now, (taken) a bunch of reps and Emmanuel, he\u2019s a vet. He\u2019s a guy who wants to see this team go someplace and he\u2019s going to speak his mind on how it\u2019s going to happen.\u201d<\/p>\n

Coach Vic Fangio , who said Monday that the fight would only be an issue if it festered, said he felt Sanders and Sutton had worked things out.<\/p>\n

\u201cYeah, I think it\u2019s put to bed and it\u2019s a dead issue,\u201d Fangio said.<\/p>\n

Another scuffle broke out Tuesday when defensive end DeShawn Williams got into it with guard Don Barclay before Fangio stepped in and led Williams away.<\/p>\n

Fangio said Flacco will make a cameo against the Seahawks as will Kevin Hogan before Drew Lock, a second-round draft pick out of Missouri, gets the bulk of the workload.<\/p>\n

Lock went 7 for 11 for 34 yards against Atlanta last week.<\/p>\n

\u201cOne thing you\u2019ve got to remember about him now, he\u2019s hardly ever been under center in his life, OK?\u201d Fangio said. \u201cHe\u2019s hardly ever had to call a play in his life, formation and checks. And you know once he gets through that, I think the other stuff will come easier and quicker, OK?<\/p>\n

\u201cSo, he\u2019s learning a new offense, how an offense operates, and when he becomes more of a quarterback in those regards and feels comfortable, where it becomes second nature, the other stuff will come.\u201d<\/p>\n
