Broncos WRs Down: Injuries Decimate Receiver Depth
18 Jan
Summary
- Two Broncos wide receivers were lost during Saturday's game.
- Rookie Pat Bryant suffered a concussion in the first quarter.
- Troy Franklin sustained a hamstring injury before halftime.

The Denver Broncos experienced a significant blow to their wide receiver corps during Saturday's AFC Divisional round matchup against the Buffalo Bills. The team lost both rookie Pat Bryant and second-year player Troy Franklin to injuries in the first half of the game.
Bryant, who had been active early in the game, was forced to leave during the first quarter after sustaining a concussion. Shortly thereafter, Franklin also exited the contest due to a hamstring injury, which occurred before the halftime break. These setbacks severely limited the Broncos' receiving options.
With Bryant and Franklin sidelined, the Broncos were left with only three other wide receivers in uniform for the remainder of the game: Courtland Sutton, Lil'Jordan Humphrey, and Marvin Mims Jr. Mims Jr. himself had a scare earlier, being checked for a concussion after a hard hit on the opening kickoff but managed to return to play.
