Denver (Patrika English News): The Denver Broncos received mixed updates from Thursday’s practice session as they continue preparing for their clash with the Los Angeles Chargers.
Denver Broncos Injury Report
Safety Talanoa Hufanga returned as a full participant, marking progress from earlier in the week. Linebacker Justin Strnad also improved, moving from did not participate to limited.
However, concerns remain for two of Denver’s key offseason acquisitions. Tight end Evan Engram was again held out of practice, while linebacker Drew Greenlaw is still at least a week away from making his debut in orange and blue.
The Greenlaw situation is particularly worrying for Denver, as the linebacker group struggled in Week 2. His return to full health will be critical for stabilizing the defense.
Los Angeles Chargers Injury Report
The Chargers, meanwhile, appear to be trending in a positive direction. Four players on their report showed significant improvement and are moving closer to being fully fit for Sunday’s matchup.
