The Broncos had two of their starting offensive lineman sit out today’s practice while another remains a “50/50” shot at playing this Sunday.
Rookie guard Dalton Risner remained sidelined with an ankle injury. He’ll likely have to practice in some fashion on Friday to have a chance at playing this Sunday. If he sits out, it would be a major hit to the Broncos offensive line.
As for center Connor McGovern, despite sitting out two practices, he figures to play this Sunday according to Head Coach Vic Fangio. When asked about McGovern playing on Sunday, he told them “I believe so, yes.”. So, McGovern will be out there, but we’ll have to keep an eye on his back injury in case it flares up again on Sunday.
Not much has changed with Ja’Wuan James when it comes to his injury. He sounds like a game time decision who may need to put in a full practice to play this weekend. If he were to sit out, Elijah Wilkinson would start at right tackle again.
As for some good news, veteran guard Ron Leary and wide receiver Tim Patrick put in limited practices today after sitting out Wednesday’s practice. Also, nose tackle Mike Purcell put in a full practice after being limited on Wednesday.
