On Monday, Denver Broncos head coach John Fox returned to the team for the first time since undergoing a heart valve replacement procedure in November, which led to some concern over whether or not Fox would be able to coach the team from the sidelines against the Tennessee Titans in Week 14.

Fox had said on Thursday that he was unsure whether or not he would be on the sidelines for the game on Sunday or in the coaches box, but on Friday afternoon we got our answer.

According to Mike Klis of the Denver Post, Fox will be on the sideline.

Fox was not concerned about where he would be for the game, because he had full faith in his assistants to continue doing the job they had done in his absence. However, getting their head coach back on the sidelines will give the Broncos a big boost in morale.

Denver is currently in the driver’s seat for the AFC West title and a first-round bye, so the boost couldn’t have come at a greater time.
