The Denver Broncos wrapped up Thursday’s practice ahead of Sunday’s regular-season finale against the Los Angeles Chargers and they continue to get healthy ahead of the NFL Playoffs beginning.
Denver Broncos continue healthy trend toward NFL Playoffs
The Denver Broncos continue to get healthier ahead of their Week 18 game against the Los Angeles Chargers in a high-stakes game for them, where they could clinch the No. 1 overall seed and homefield advantage with a win.
Offensive guard Ben Powers (biceps) and linebacker Karene Reid (hamstring) were all full participants for Thursday’s practice, while tight end Nate Adkins (knee) and wide receiver Pat Bryant (concussion) upgraded to being full participants after being limited on Wednesday.
Bryant continues to progress well through the NFL’s concussion protocol and all signs point to he and Adkins being good to go for Sunday’s game.
John Franklin-Myers (hip) was limited for the second straight day.
Linebacker Dre Greenlaw (hamstring) did not participate and is not expected to play this week against the Chargers, with the hope for his return being in the NFL Playoffs if Denver wins and clinches the No. 1 seed, which expands the timeline for Greenlaw to recover even further.
