"Willis McGahee's first wish was granted.

The Broncos' veteran running back was back on the practice field Tuesday for the first time since he suffered a torn right MCL and compression fracture to his right tibia on Nov. 18.

McGahee, however, won't be eligible to play Saturday when the Broncos host the Baltimore Ravens in the AFC divisional round of the playoffs. McGahee would be eligible to play in the AFC championship game on Jan. 20 should the Broncos get that far.

McGahee has made it clear he's eager to play again and help the Broncos get a Super Bowl ring."
