The Broncos’ Luck

Once again, as in the three previous weeks, the injury bug struck the Denver Broncos again, and their luck takes another significant plunge on this week’s stock report.

Bradley Chubb and Shelby Harris both were dinged up during the Thursday Night Football matchup but returned to the field in short order.

However, KJ Hamler and Noah Fant suffered more significant injuries, Hamler with a hamstring injury and Fant with an ankle injury that he had to be carted off from.

When Fangio addressed the media Friday, he was not optimistic that Hamler or Fant would be returning to the field in short order; it has already been confirmed that Noah Fant is expected to miss some time in order to recover.

“Could be a couple weeks for both of them”, Fangio told media Friday afternoon.
