With the Denver Broncos and San Diego Chargers meeting for the final time this season, we take a look at the final injury report for the game on Sunday.

The Denver Broncos will be looking to avoid being swept by a division rival. It has not happened since 2010. The team is hoping that it stays that way.

The task will be a difficult one as the San Diego Chargers come into the game on a two game winning streak, including a win against the Broncos on October 13th.

It is quite odd to see two teams face off in just a short amount of time. The Broncos are no strangers to it. In the 2013 season, the Broncos faced off against the Kansas City Chiefs twice in a three week span. The New England Patriots were sandwiched in between those meetings.

The Broncos are coming into this game a bit banged up. The Houston Texans were a physical football team on Monday night and it showed on the injury report.

The biggest news coming from the Broncos is that starting running back C.J. Anderson will in fact be placed on the injured reserved list after undergoing surgery on his knee.

This will keep the running back out of game action for at least eight weeks. This means he would return around playoff time.

As far as the other players listed, Aqib Talib (lower back), Demarcus Ware (forearm), Matt Paradis (hip), and Brandon Marshall (hamstring) are all listed as questionable and will be a gametime decision for this Sunday’s game.

For the San Diego Chargers, Jerry Attaochu (ankle) and Craig Mager (concussion protocol) are out while Jahleel Addae (collarbone) is doubtful for the game.

The biggest names for the Chargers are Hunter Henry (concussion) and Travis Benjamin (knee). Both players are listed as questionable for the game on Sunday.

Hopefully there will be some good news for the Denver Broncos come game day. Keep it here at Predominantly Orange for all of your injury news.
