December 8, 2022

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — More bad news for Broncos fans…

The Broncos released an updated injury report Thursday ahead of Sunday’s matchup with the Kansas City Chiefs. Kickoff is scheduled for 2:05 at Empower Field.

Key points:

Five Broncos joined the injury report, including: DJ Jones, Jonathan Cooper and Deshawn Williams.
Nathaniel Hackett said the team is still working through whether or not Jerry Jeudy will be on a snap count this week. Jeudy played 36% of the Broncos’ snaps in his return from an ankle injury last week.
Dalton Risner missed a second consecutive practice. He was on the report last week for a shoulder injury but didn’t miss a practice.
The Chiefs are still almost unbelievably healthy.

Here’s the most recent update to the injury report:
