Fixing a broken leg in Photoshop

I selected one person from each sports team for Fall sports here and with a little scheduling miracle I was able to get them all together for about five minutes to take this photo. It's not an HDR, and the only thing Photoshopped about it is the left leg of Dan, the football player (see below). The trick to the photo was that I scheduled it right at sunset hour on one of the few cloudy days here in Redlands, and I calculated all of my exposure and lighting powers ahead of time. The result was exactly what I wanted.
