The Facts:
This week figures to be crucial to what the Broncos get from Marshall this season. The greatest concern is his scheduled one-day trial Thursday in Atlanta on a misdemeanor battery charge. The incident occurred March 4, 2008, and alleges Marshall struck his former girlfriend.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
That incident caused Marshall to serve a one-game suspension last season for violating the NFL's personal conduct policy, but league spokesman Greg Aiello has confirmed the wide receiver was told that a negative result from that charge could potentially lead to further discipline. ... Meanwhile, the Broncos released their initial depth chart on Monday -- featuring three starting WRs -- and Marshall is listed as a second-teamer (behind Jabar Gaffney, Brandon Stokley and Eddie Royal). Marshall still hasn't returned to the practice field since limping off Aug. 2 with what appeared to be a leg injury related to his surgically repaired hip. Message sent?
