Key Points:
- The Denver Broncos are optimistic that cornerback Pat Surtain II and wide receiver Pat Bryant have avoided season-ending injuries, though both still need to undergo MRIs for confirmation.
- Surtain II was able to walk off the field gingerly, while Bryant was carted off, raising initial concerns about the severity of his injury.
- Bryant is expected to miss some time, which will impact the Broncos' offense, as he has been a reliable pass catcher and run blocker this season.
- The team will rely on players like Troy Franklin, Marvin Mims, and Lil’Jordan Humphrey to fill Bryant’s role, while also putting more pressure on Jaylen Waddle, Courtland Sutton, Evan Engram, and the running game to improve.
- Despite the injury concerns, both players are anticipated to return at some point this season, providing hope for the Broncos' Super Bowl aspirations.
