The Denver Broncos are 90 minutes away from kicking things off overseas in London against the New York Jets and we hope you have your coffee pot set to auto brew. Ahead of kickoff, the Broncos released their list of gameday inactives for today.
Denver Broncos inactives vs. New York Jets
- Quarterback Sam Ehlinger
- Running back Tyler Badie
- Offensive Tackle Frank Crum
- Outside Linebacker Jonah Elliss
- Defensive lineman Sai’vion Jones
- Defensive lineman Jordan Jackson
Ehlinger will be the emergency quarterback as he has so far throughout the entire season. McLaughlin will make his season debut today alongside J.K. Dobbins and RJ Harvey, with Tyler Badie heading to the inactive list for today.
Crum is a healthy scratch, as has been the case since Week 1, as well as rookie defensive end Sai’vion Jones, who played against the Cincinnati Bengals two weeks ago but reverted back to the inactive list last week against the Philadelphia Eagles.
Jackson heads back to the inactive list as well with the return of Malcolm Roach.
Elliss was ruled out of today’s game on Friday by the team after he didn’t practice all week with a shoulder and rib injury. It’s unclear if the shoulder injury is on the one he had offseason shoulder surgery on, but it’s certainly worth monitoring.
Rookie outside linebacker Que Robinson will make his debut today in place of Elliss and will factor into the rotation behind Nik Bonitto, Jonathon Cooper, and Dondrea Tillman.
Denver Broncos news and notes
In case you missed it, the Broncos officially placed left guard Ben Powers on injured reserve on Saturday and officially activated Malcolm Roach to the active roster, which means he’ll make his season debut this morning after missing the first five weeks of the season with a calf injury sustained during practice ahead of Denver’s Week 1 season opener against the Titans.
Kickoff is set for 7:30 a.m. MT on NFL Network.
