Will the Denver Broncos get their top tight end back from injury? The full injury update ahead of Monday Night Football is right here. The Broncos have a great chance to get right in Week 4. They are playing in the final game of the week against the Cincinnati Bengals, a team that has been without Joe Burrow.

Burrow is likely out for the rest of the season, so Denver is now primed to face Jake Browning, a QB they have not yet seen. Anyway, Denver seems to slowly be getting healthier, as both Malcolm Roach and Dre Greenlaw are hopefully nearing a return.

But what about Evan Engram? The stud tight end missed Week 3. Is he playing in Week 4, a must-win game against a spiraling AFC foe?

Evan Engram practiced all week and is a go for Monday Night Football against the Bengals

Missing Week 3, Evan Engram was a full participant in practice all week for the Denver Broncos and will suit up for the team on Monday Night Football, which is great news for the offense. Engram was signed in free agency after shockingly being cut by the Jacksonville Jaguars. He's yet to get going, but you get the sense that Engram and the entire offense is on the cusp of something special.

The Cincinnati Bengals sport one of the worst defenses in the NFL and lost by a whopping 38 points to the Minnesota Vikings in Week 3, and the Vikings had Carson Wentz as their starting QB, so it's not like they were up against anyone special.

In two games this year, Engram has been targeted just six times. He's caught four passes for 33 yards and zero touchdowns. Two of his receptions have gone for first downs, but he's not had a catch longer than 12 yards. Engram recently turned 31 years old and doesn't have a ton of runway left in the NFL.

The Denver Broncos brought him along on a two-year deal and want him to become a key piece of this offense for this year and next, perhaps. Denver has to take advantage of playing a weaker defense at home, and it's honestly going to be a huge disappointment if Engram doesn't make any noise today.

The Broncos should be able to win this game by at least 14 points, and Evan Engram should get a ton of work in the passing game.
