Coming out of the Denver Broncos victory over the Indianapolis Colts, the biggest piece of injury news centered around DeMarcus Ware and his fractured forearm — rightfully so. But he’s not the only starter left hobbled following the big win.

With three catches for 46 yards, Green was the Broncos second-leading receiver behind Demaryius Thomas, and losing him for any extended period of time would definitely hurt the Broncos, both in the passing and running game.
Denver will have to hope that either Green has a quick recovery or that Jeff Heuerman can work his way onto the field for the first time in his career.
