Slow Getting Up by former WR Nate Jackson. Great narrative that looks at the game from a fringe player fighting for roster spots and battling injuries.
A Few Seconds of Panic by Steve Fatsis.
A journalist joins the Broncos in training camp as a kicker and profiles the team. He becomes a pretty good kicker, and shares a lot of insight about the team and the NFL.
I loved reading this and learned a lot from them

I enjoyed this one not only because I´m a Broncos fan, but also because I always like to get a look behind the scenes and this book focuses on the bottom half of the roster and it makes you realize that some are basically just playing for a job in the NFL and that not everybody makes a killing.
Fatsis basically was a part of the team for training camp and writes about his impressions, what he encountered, the people he met.
Not sure what you mean about juicy details, but A Few Seconds of Panic is a great read. It's about a sportswriter who decides to try out for the Broncos as a kicker.
