Field Goal
</hdr><body>
<p>By Alexander Tresniowski/Reported by Wendy Cole
</p>
<p> Denver Broncos head coach Dan Reeves had two worries about
Kenny Walker, his eighth-round pick in this year's N.F.L. draft--that he was too small, and that he was deaf. Neither worry
proved founded. Walker bulked up and, with the help of an
interpreter who attends practices and games, has become only the
second deaf athlete to play in the N.F.L. "He has a tremendous
desire to work," says Reeves. The 6-ft. 3-in., 260-lb. defensive
end has also become a favorite of fans and teammates. Says
Reeves: "Everybody seems to have a love for him."
