Broncos WR Bryant poised for return from injury
5 Nov
Summary
- Pat Bryant nears return from ankle injury, practiced fully.
- Jaylen Waddle continues to play despite a minor chest issue.
- Four defensive players missed practice with various injuries.
The Denver Broncos may soon welcome back wide receiver Pat Bryant from injured reserve, following his recovery from an ankle injury sustained in Week 4. Bryant, who fully participated in practice, has a window opened for activation to the team's 53-man roster. His return could bolster a Broncos passing attack currently averaging 180.4 yards per game.
Prior to his injury, Bryant recorded nine receptions for 133 yards and a touchdown. His presence offers quarterback Bo Nix a reliable target, particularly in the red zone.
Other offensive players, such as wide receiver Jaylen Waddle, are continuing to play despite minor ailments. Waddle has been managing a chest issue.
Conversely, the team faces uncertainty on defense, with four key players—Talanoa Hufanga, Brandon Jones, Eyioma Uwazurike, and Kris Abrams-Draine—missing practice due to ankle, hamstring, and shoulder injuries. Their status for the upcoming game is uncertain, and they will need to participate in limited practices to be available.
