The Denver Broncos were back on the practice field once again on Friday after they held a brief walkthrough on Thanksgiving Day. After popping up on the injury report this week, rookie quarterback Bo Nix upgraded from limited to full participation.

Denver Broncos Injury Report from Friday

Outside of cornerback Riley Moss, the Denver Broncos had every player accounted for during Friday’s practice portion that was open for the media to view. Moss was not spotted outside or on the team’s side field on Friday after he suffered a knee injury in Sunday’s win against the Las Vegas Raiders.

Broncos head coach Sean Payton said that Moss had an MCL injury after the game and avoided something serious, but there’s still a good chance he misses some time here down the stretch.

Quarterback Bo Nix was a limited participant in Thursday’s Thanksgiving walkthrough with a back injury that popped up during Sunday’s game against the Raiders. During Friday’s open viewing portion, Nix was involved in team stretch, group period, and individual periods, throwing the ball and moving fine. He was upgraded from limited on Thursday to full participation on Friday and is all good to go for Monday Night Football.

Safety P.J. Locke (thumb), safety Brandon Jones (abdomen), defensive end Zach Allen (heel), and defensive end John Franklin-Myers (shoulder) were all full participants as well.

Moss was the only player who did not participate on Friday, and his status for Monday’s game against the Cleveland Browns is likely in doubt. Veteran cornerback Levi Wallace will more than likely take on the bulk of his snaps at the position, and we could end up seeing rookie Kris Abrams-Draine active for the first time on Monday Night as a depth option behind Wallace, Ja’Quan McMillian, and Damarri Mathis.
